• Strong understanding of API design and distributed systems, with experience using REST, GraphQL, and/or gRPC.
• Strong experience with authentication and identity systems, including OAuth 2.0, OIDC, SSO, session management, and token management.
• Experience migrating services or capabilities away from a third-party vendor, CMS, or legacy platform.
• Strong understanding of production observability and reliability, including logging, metrics, and tracing.
• Ability to design and deliver scalable, maintainable backend services with a high degree of autonomy.
• Comfortable working in an AI-first engineering environment, using AI coding assistants and agentic development tools as part of the software development workflow.
• Fluent English communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with senior technical stakeholders.

• Experience building high-traffic or cache-heavy systems using technologies such as CDNs or Redis.
• Experience building AI/LLM-powered services or agentic workflows.
