  • Contribute to Passwordless Login, FIDO2/Web Authn/passkey, Risk Based Authentication, and modern identity solutions.
  • Build and consume REST APIs, gateway patterns, and reusable services that align with platform principles and architectural standards.
  • Maintain high standards for automated testing, code quality, security scanning, observability, and release readiness.
  • Troubleshoot high-stress and time-critical production situations with strong ownership and technical judgment.
  • Mentor less-experienced engineers through code reviews, design discussions, and knowledge sharing.
  • Use AI-assisted engineering tools across day-to-day software development lifecycle activities.
  • Apply agentic and spec-driven development practices by converting design inputs into structured prompts or specifications.
  • Validate AI-generated recommendations, code, tests, and documentation using strong engineering judgment and secure coding practices.
  • Share practical learnings with peers on effective prompt usage and responsible AI-assisted development patterns.
