We’re looking for a Developer to join our Operational Technology team, for our Stratos platform. This role is all about building reliable, secure, and measurable features that power both our internal teams and client portals. You’ll integrate best-in-class third-party systems, write clean code, and help elevate engineering practices across the org. This is a hands-on role where you’ll be trusted to design, build, and ship production-ready services while collaborating with product, design, and operations leaders.

• Design and implement services, APIs, and integrations that power internal tools and client-facing portals

• Translate business problems into technical solutions, slicing work for incremental value and managing risk with feature flags and staged rollouts

• Ensure marketing data correctness (think WoW/MoM metrics) with thoughtful handling of boundaries and filters

• Establish access controls and safe patterns for internal tooling (parameterized queries, RBAC, least-privilege access)

• Ship, support, and iterate: fix bugs, improve performance, and reduce cost without sacrificing UX

• Add telemetry, alerts, and clear runbooks to make issues easy to detect, diagnose, and resolve

• Document designs and trade-offs with concise specs/RFCs

• Experience: 3+ years of professional software development with production ownership (mid–senior range)

• Languages: Strong in JavaScript/TypeScript and Python; you write clean, tested, and review-friendly code

• APIs & Integrations: Skilled with REST/GraphQL, OAuth2/OIDC/JWT, pagination, rate limits, idempotency, and resilient contracts

• Data & SQL: Confident querying and shaping data for analytics and reporting; you validate results and avoid common pitfalls

• Cloud Delivery: Experience shipping services on managed compute (serverless or containers) with CI/CD and observability in place (GCP a plus)

• Low-/No-Code Enablement: Familiarity with Retool, Appsmith, Power Apps, or automation tools (Zapier, Make, n8n) to empower non-engineers safely

• AI-Forward Mindset: Comfortable using tools like Copilot or Cursor to accelerate quality delivery and integrating LLM APIs where it makes sense

• Strong Communicator and Ownership: Ability to handle a fast paced environment with imperfect information and able to talk through ambiguity and drive outcomes.

• Marketing data literacy: Familiarity with CRM (Salesforce/HubSpot), web analytics (GA4), paid media APIs, and attribution/measurement basics.

• Security & compliance: Least‑privilege IAM, secrets management, PII handling, and familiarity with audit frameworks (SOC 2/ISO 27001) in product engineering contexts.

• AI integrations: Consuming Vertex AI endpoints or vendor LLM APIs; prompt design/validation and safe fallbacks (timeouts, retries, guardrails).

• Frontend fundamentals: React/TypeScript basics, design-system usage, accessibility (WCAG), and performance profiling for portal components.

• Experimentation & analytics: Feature flags, A/B testing exposure, and KPI definition habits that support decision-making.

At Senior:

• Lead designs for cross-team features; define integration contracts and guardrails

• Coordinate vendor and partner work to a clear quality bar

• Proactively manage reliability, cost, and observability

• Mentor peers through code reviews and pairing

• Implement designs end-to-end with clean code, tests, and docs

• Raise risks early and grow into owning designs and staged rollouts
