• Significant ownership over the architecture and development of business‑critical systems
• Opportunity to build modern, cloud‑native applications in a collaborative onsite environment

• Develop modular microservices and distributed processing systems using event‑driven architecture, asynchronous processing, queues, workers, and API‑first design.
• Engineer reliable large‑file and long‑running processing workflows using streaming or chunking, checkpointing, retries, idempotency, failure isolation, and resumable processing.
• Containerize and deploy applications using Docker, Azure Kubernetes Service, and Azure Container Apps, supporting horizontal scaling, rolling and versioned deployments, and fault‑tolerant runtime behavior.
• Build observable, scalable, and recoverable workflows using Apache Airflow or comparable orchestration tools, along with Azure Service Bus and queue‑based processing technologies.
• Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines and production‑grade logging, monitoring, alerting, and diagnostics using tools such as Azure Monitor and Application Insights.

• Minimum of 6+ years of professional software engineering experience building full‑stack, platform‑grade, or high‑scale enterprise software systems.
• Bachelor’s degree in computer science, software engineering, information technology, or a related discipline; an equivalent combination of education and relevant professional experience will also be considered.
• Advanced hands‑on experience with Python 3.x, REST API development, microservices, asynchronous processing, event‑driven architecture, and distributed application design.
• Hands‑on experience with Docker, Kubernetes—preferably AKS—Azure Container Apps, Linux environments, Git or Git Lab, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience with Apache Airflow or an equivalent orchestration platform and developing scalable queue-, worker-, or event‑based distributed processing workflows.
• Experience designing observable and recoverable cloud systems using Azure technologies such as Service Bus, Storage Accounts, Key Vault, Azure Monitor, and Application Insights; experience with Redis, Solr or similar search platforms, Java/JVM services, or high‑scale enterprise applications is beneficial.
