• Support secure‑by‑design practices throughout the software development lifecycle.
• Implement automated compliance validation and policy enforcement.
• Partner with security and architecture teams to ensure alignment with enterprise standards.
• Help develop guardrails that balance engineering agility with security and compliance requirements.

• Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Computer Information Systems, Software Engineering, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related field; equivalent relevant experience may be considered.
• 2–5 years of hands‑on software or platform engineering experience.
• Experience programming in one or more modern programming languages.
• Experience building automation solutions, engineering platforms, developer tools, reusable components, shared services, or self‑service capabilities.
• Experience with cloud technologies, preferably AWS.
• Understanding of DevOps, CI/CD, cloud-native development, and software delivery practices.
• Strong problem‑solving and troubleshooting skills.
• Ability to collaborate effectively with engineering, product, architecture, and platform teams.
• At least one required cloud certification: AWS Cloud Practitioner, Microsoft Azure Fundamentals, or Google Cloud Digital Leader.
