Maintain and enhance RESTful (WebAPI) or GraphQL APIs, ensuring high performance, reliability, and security
Act as a Tech Lead within Scrum pods, offering architecture guidance, best practice enforcement, and strategic direction
Collaborate closely with Product Owners to refine technical requirements and sprint goals, ensuring feasible and efficient delivery
Conduct code reviews and provide mentorship to other engineers, fostering a culture of continuous learning and improvement
Champion authentication/authorization best practices (e.g., Identity Server) and ensure compliance with data protection and security standards
Work closely with Scrum Masters, DevOps, and QA in an Agile environment, participating in sprint planning, stand-ups, and retrospectives
Coordinate across teams to ensure seamless delivery of cross-functional features, aligning technical tasks with business priorities
Identify and address bottlenecks or blockers early, proactively offering solutions or workarounds
Promote best practices in design, development, testing, deployment, and operational excellence
Drive process improvements (e.g., CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, environment management) to accelerate development cycles
Stay current with emerging technologies and techniques, evaluating their potential to enhance product quality and team productivity

Requirements:

At least 6+ years of professional software development experience (C#/.NET, JavaScript/TypeScript)
Advanced knowledge of React in large-scale applications
Strong background in AWS-based microservices (Lambda, RDS, OpenSearch) with an ability to design secure, highly available systems
Proven record in leading technical initiatives or acting as a Tech Lead, providing guidance to multiple engineers
Experience with geospatial queries or mapping libraries (e.g., Leaflet) is highly beneficial
Expertise in building high-availability APIs (WebAPI, GraphQL)
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively in a distributed, Agile environment with both technical and non-technical stakeholders

Nice to have:

Commercial experience working with large data volumes or streaming technologies (e.g., Kinesis, SQS, RabbitMQ)
Advanced-level experience with NoSQL (Elasticsearch/SOLR) or Oracle
Familiarity with container orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes)
