• 6+ years of experience in software engineering, with at least 3 years in a solution architect, lead engineer, or principal engineer capacity.
• Demonstrated experience designing and shipping payment integrations: card-present, gateway integrations, semi-integrated payment flows, tokenization, or PCI-scoped architectures.
• Hands-on experience building or operating cloud-native systems on AWS or Azure (microservices, event-driven architecture, API design).
• Strong API design skills across REST and OpenAPI, including authentication/authorization patterns (OAuth 2.0, API key lifecycle).
• Experience integrating third-party platforms and designing scalable integration patterns (adapters, SPIs, provider-agnostic contracts).
