• Event‑Driven Security:
  Implement secure patterns for real‑time data streaming via Kafka, ensuring proper ACLs and encryption for data in motion.
• Be a Force Multiplier:
  Act as a mentor and teacher, leveling up other engineers in the art of secure coding, token management, and identity protocols.

  Maintain a high bar for clean, maintainable, and well‑tested code with vigorous attention to detail and automated testing.

• 5+ years of experience in software development, with a proven track record of designing and maintaining distributed, web‑based systems.
