Build and evolve cloud-native microservices and REST/gRPC APIs for security operations and exposure management. Design and implement distributed systems using messaging platforms, search stores, and cloud storage technologies. Drive end-to-end technical execution, from architecture and development through deployment, monitoring, and optimization. Collaborate with front-end engineering teams to deliver performant APIs and services that enable responsive, user-focused experiences. Establish and maintain engineering practices that support scalability, reliability, security, and operational excellence. Monitor system health, investigate production issues, troubleshoot complex technical problems, and optimize service performance. Apply a DevOps mindset across development, deployment, observability, and continuous improvement. Mentor engineers, share technical knowledge, provide guidance, and contribute to the development of engineering talent. Collaborate effectively across engineering and other functions to solve complex problems and deliver meaningful outcomes. Contribute to technical strategy and architectural decisions across a broad and evolving engineering landscape. Requirements 8+ years of hands-on software application development experience, particularly with distributed systems and cloud storage solutions. Strong proficiency in Java and Spring technologies, including Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, and Spring Security. Experience with containerization and orchestration technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes. Deep understanding of cloud platforms such as AWS or GCP. Strong experience with observability and monitoring tools such as DataDog, Grafana, or Prometheus.
