Architect and develop scalable APIs and microservices deployed on AWS, Azure, or GCP

Take ownership of complex features from design through to production and ongoing operation

Drive architectural discussions and contribute to long-term technical strategy

Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver secure, privacy-compliant features aligned with regulations (e.g., GDPR, BIPA, CCPA)

Mentor engineers through code reviews, pairing, and technical guidance

Improve system reliability, scalability, observability, and performance

Partner with product and UX teams to deliver high-quality, user-centric experiences

Champion secure coding practices and contribute to identity and cryptographic systems
