Experience developing, troubleshooting, and maintaining backend applications or services in complex production environments.
Experience developing and maintaining software code, participating in code reviews, and contributing to software development projects within an engineering team.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience developing or maintaining software in C++ or working with large, established codebases.
Familiarity with distributed systems, microservices, Kubernetes, or cloud-native infrastructure.
Understanding of authentication, authorization, identity and access management, or RBAC/ABAC concepts.
Experience working with high-performance, high-availability services in large-scale enterprise or cloud environments.
