• 5+ years of experience working across large-scale enterprise environments, including on-premises, private cloud, or hybrid technology platforms
• Demonstrated ability to translate business requirements into practical technical designs and implementation plans
• Demonstrated hands-on troubleshooting experience across multiple technology domains
• Detail-oriented, self-directed, and able to manage multiple priorities while consistently meeting delivery commitments
• Strong analytical skills, learning agility, curiosity, and willingness to investigate unfamiliar technical areas
• Strong communication skills with the ability to build credibility across developers, engineers, architects, product owners, operations, vendors, and leadership stakeholders

Nice To Haves

• Experience with middleware platforms, APIs, Linux/Windows infrastructure, container platforms, network services, storage, monitoring, or enterprise automation
• Experience with DevSecOps, CI/CD, infrastructure as code, configuration management, vulnerability scanning, secure SDLC, and production-release controls
• Experience with performance analysis, latency-sensitive applications, high-volume batch workloads, capacity considerations, and resiliency design.
• Experience with distributed systems, APIs, integration, and operationally resilient system design
• Experience working in highly regulated, risk-conscious, or large financial services environments
• Experience in a collaborative Agile working environment; Scrum experience preferred
• Experience using AI-assisted engineering tools such as GitHub Copilot, Claude, Cursor, or similar technologies to improve developer productivity, code quality, and solution delivery

Responsibilities

• Partner with business, technology, and platform stakeholders to understand functional requirements, technical constraints, risk considerations, dependencies, and success criteria
• Translate business needs into practical technical designs, implementation approaches, and engineering work packages that can be delivered in a large-scale enterprise environment
• Evaluate solution options and communicate trade-offs across performance, resiliency, scalability, security, compliance, cost, maintainability, and delivery timelines
• Help convert ambiguous problem statements into actionable technical direction for developers, engineers, and platform teams
• Provide engineering-level triage and solution direction for complex issues spanning application, middleware, compute, network, automation, DevSecOps, and operational readiness domains
• Review designs, identify gaps, challenge assumptions, clarify dependencies, and help remove technical ambiguity that blocks delivery
• Produce and maintain engineering design artifacts, implementation notes, operational runbooks, decision records, readiness documentation, and knowledge-transfer materials
• Investigate and help resolve a wide array of technical problems, including low-latency application concerns, batch-processing challenges, environment issues, platform integration gaps, and production-readiness risks
• Analyze complex technical symptoms, identify likely root causes, engage the right technical partners, and drive toward practical remediation options
• Support engineering decisions in multifaceted situations using strong technical judgment, data-driven analysis, and enterprise risk awareness
• Promote resilient, secure, observable, and maintainable designs that support production operations and long-term platform health
