Implement secure authentication and authorization using OAuth2 and JWT based access tokens.
Build and operate cloud-native solutions on AWS with production-grade reliability, security, and observability.
Drive CI/CD, infrastructure as code, and automated testing practices across services.
Lead technical planning, decomposition, and delivery across multiple workstreams; ensure quality, performance, and operability.
Mentor engineers through code reviews, pairing, architecture reviews, and coaching.

Proven ability to translate customer requirements into product: discovery/clarification, technical scoping, tradeoff decisions, iterative delivery.
Proven ability to collaborate with Product, UX, and customer-facing teams to translate needs into capabilities.
Strong proficiency in at least two of Node.js/TypeScript, Python, PHP, with ability to work across all four as needed.
4+ years of cloud experience with strong preference for AWS (IAM, VPC, ECS/EKS, Lambda, RDS/DynamoDB, S3, CloudWatch, etc.).
