• 3+ years of experience developing and maintaining production integrations or middleware (APIs, webhooks, job queues).
• Proficiency in at least one server-side technology stack (Node.js/TypeScript, Ruby/Rails, or Go), with the flexibility to learn others as needed.
• Strong understanding of REST APIs, authentication methods (JWT/HMAC), background job systems (e.g., BullMQ, Sidekiq), and data mapping techniques.
• Demonstrated ability to communicate effectively with customers and resolve technical issues efficiently.
• Proven capability to independently progress from identifying a vague problem to delivering a robust solution.
