Job responsibilities

• Own end-to-end delivery of software capabilities using Python (services, APIs, integrations, automation tooling) and React (UI workflows, API-driven front-ends).
• Drive design decisions and establish engineering standards (code quality, testing strategy, CI/CD patterns, release discipline).
• Build and scale automation and tooling capabilities to improve operational efficiency and user experience.
• Diagnose common integration and connectivity issues using basic networking fundamentals (e.g., DNS, TCP connectivity concepts, TLS/certificates), escalating to specialist teams when needed.
