• Participate in on-call support, incident reviews, and operational readiness activities while driving improvements that enhance reliability and reduce operational toil.
• Apply secure-by-design and privacy-conscious engineering practices when working with sensitive financial and consumer data.
• Foster engineering excellence through code reviews, technical mentoring, knowledge sharing, and promotion of development best practices.
• Continuously improve automation, testing, observability, developer experience, and software delivery processes.
• Use approved AI-assisted engineering tools responsibly to improve productivity while applying sound engineering judgment, rigorous validation, and strong protection of confidential or sensitive information.

All About You :

• Experience with modern data platforms and databases, including data modeling, scalability, performance, and operational trade-offs.
• Working knowledge of authentication, authorization, secrets management, vulnerability management, and secure handling of sensitive data in regulated environments.
• Strong ownership mindset with a proven ability to take initiative, drive work to completion, remove blockers, and deliver results with limited supervision.
• Ability to collaborate effectively across teams, influence technical decisions, and communicate complex concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
