- Design and implement scalable microservices architectures and service integrations for cloud-native systems
- Contribute to solution architecture, application architecture, and technical design decisions for scalable cloud-native systems
- Translate business and technical requirements into scalable, secure, and maintainable solution designs
- Collaborate with Architecture and Engineering teams to ensure implementations align with target microservices, cloud, integration, and enterprise architecture standards
- Design modern AWS cloud-native and serverless architectures, leveraging services such as Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, ECS, EC2, and S3
- Develop modern, responsive and mobile-friendly web applications following usability, accessibility, and engineering best practices
- Integrate AI/LLM capabilities into internal business applications, workflows, and operational processes
- Contribute to system design, architecture reviews, engineering standards, and technical governance to ensure long-term scalability and maintainability
- Collaborate closely with business stakeholders and internal teams to translate requirements into scalable technical solutions
- Partner with Product Management to align technical execution with business priorities and balance technical debt with feature delivery
- Participate in deployment automation, CI/CD pipelines, observability, and platform engineering improvements
- Continuously evaluate and improve application performance, usability, reliability, scalability, and security
- Lead and promote the adoption of AI-assisted development workflows, including AI-driven code generation, code reviews, and engineering productivity improvements
- Participate in code reviews, mentor team members, and contribute to engineering best practices and technical standards
Required Qualifications
- 5+ years of professional software development experience with a proven track record of designing and delivering scalable, cloud-native applications and backend systems
