  • Communicate clearly about tradeoffs, risks, and implementation approaches.
  • Represent engineering best practices in client-facing environments.
  • Promote engineering standards around quality, testing, security, and performance.
  • Leverage modern tooling, automation, and AI-assisted development to improve productivity and quality.
  • Contribute to internal engineering patterns, documentation, and shared components.
  • Stay current with modern full-stack and cloud-native best practices.
  • 5+ years of professional experience as a Full-Stack or Software Engineer.
