• Translating requirements into scalable technical integrations.
• Building and maintaining observability using Prometheus and Grafana.
• Helping define standards for communication between internal systems and external partner platforms.
• Working closely with architects to turn high-level designs into deployed solutions.

What we're looking for:

• Proven API-led connectivity and middleware architecture experience.
• Strong development capability in at least one of Python, Go or Java.
• Strong understanding of Prometheus and Grafana.
• An independent, problem-solving approach.
• Good communication and interpersonal skills.
• Broadcast experience is beneficial, but extensive industry knowledge is not essential.
