As a Senior Staff Software Engineer, you will be a technical cornerstone of our engineering organization. You will design, build, and scale highly complex, distributed microservices that power our enterprise ecosystem. This role requires a blend of deep hands-on technical expertise, systems thinking, and a passion for modern engineering practices. You won’t just write code; you will architect scalable systems, champion code quality, and pave the way for AI-driven development methodologies
System Architecture & Design: Design and evolve highly scalable, resilient, and fault-tolerant distributed systems capable of handling enterprise-level throughput.
Hands-on Development: Deliver high-quality, clean, and maintainable code using C# (.NET Core), Java, or Python within cloud-native microservice environments.
Complex Integrations: Deconstruct and map intricate enterprise integrations, understanding how disparate systems interact to build cohesive, scalable solutions.
DevOps & Automation: Drive containerization and orchestration strategies using Docker, Kubernetes, and OpenShift. Own and optimize modern CI/CD pipelines (GitHub, Jenkins, Artifactory).
Engineering Excellence: Champion rigorous code reviews, robust testing frameworks, and strict API design standards (RESTful APIs). Constantly challenge the status quo to optimize performance and tech stack efficiency.
Infrastructure as Code: Leverage AWS and AWS CDK to build and manage secure, scalable, and automated cloud infrastructure.
Technical Leadership: Act as a force multiplier by mentoring peers, driving spec-driven development, and integrating next-gen AI tools into the team's daily workflow
