We are looking for a Senior Full‑Stack Developer to serve as the hands‑on technical anchor for our engineering team, owning architecture and critical‑path development directly while setting technical direction and mentoring engineers across the team. This is a deeply hands‑on role: most of the time is spent designing, building, and reviewing code, not delegating it. You will partner closely with product, architecture, and business stakeholders to translate business goals into a technical roadmap and execution plan, while maintaining the highest standards of code quality, security, and operational reliability.

Required Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience in large-scale software development, including developing applications, web services, and cloud‑native applications using Java, Spring Boot, React, REST APIs, JPA, messaging, and related open‑source or proprietary technologies
• 5+ years designing and developing highly scalable microservices, web services, and REST APIs
• 5+ years of experience working in Agile development environments
• 3+ years of experience developing production‑grade applications and services in Python, including API development (FastAPI/Flask) and integration with AI/ML frameworks
• 3+ years of experience with distributed messaging systems such as Kafka (topics, partitions, consumer groups), or equivalent (RabbitMQ, ActiveMQ, AWS SQS/SNS)
• 2+ years in a technical lead role
• 2+ years of experience designing event‑driven architectures and asynchronous integration patterns using message queues/streaming platforms
• 2+ years of experience building and maintaining Python‑based data pipelines, automation scripts, or AI‑agent workflows (e.g., LangGraph, LangChain, RAG architectures)
• 2+ years of hands‑on experience deploying and operating services on a cloud platform (GCP preferred, including GKE/Cloud Run, Cloud Build, IAM, and logging/monitoring)
• 2+ years of experience with CI/CD tooling such as Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or Argo
• 2+ years of experience with source management tools such as GitHub or GitLab
• 2+ years of experience with containerization and orchestration technologies (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes)
• Proven ability to lead complex technical initiatives while mentoring other engineers

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience designing and developing in a Test‑Driven Development environment
• Experience with NoSQL/document databases (MongoDB Atlas preferred), including schema design and data lifecycle management
• Exposure to GenAI/LLM‑assisted development — such as using AI tooling for code analysis, refactoring, or agentic workflows (e.g., Claude, OpenAI, Gemini - Vertex AI)
• Experience with accessibility (A11y), web performance, and stability best practices

Education

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience (High School diploma plus 4 years of relevant work experience)
