  • Ability to manage priorities across multiple projects and thrive in a fast-paced environment.
  • Experience using AI tools to enhance software development workflows, with sound judgment in their application.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively across technical and cross-functional teams.
  • Willingness to participate in an on-call rotation.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience, with a passion for continuous learning and growth.

Nice to have:
  • Familiarity with testing practices and frameworks (unit, integration, etc.).
  • Active contribution to multiple SDLC phases (development, testing, and release).
  • Experience with Containers such as Docker or Kubernetes.
  • Basic familiarity with cloud platforms, specifically AWS.
  • Exposure to Infrastructure as Code tools like Terraform.
  • Experience with non-relational databases and/or graph databases.
  • Open-source contributions or a GitHub profile you'd like to share!
