• Develop backend services and microservices using Java, C#, and .NET frameworks, applying best practices in cloud-native development (GCP preferred).

• Lead technical planning and system performance strategies, with a focus on resiliency, throughput, and secure data flow across distributed environments.

• Build and maintain modern APIs and service orchestration layers using event-driven architectures (Kafka, MQ, Pub/Sub) and integration platforms.

• Collaborate with product managers, solution architects, QA, and DevOps teams to align technical execution with business priorities.

• Define and uphold engineering standards and non-functional requirements, promoting clarity, performance, and security across delivery teams.

• Guide DevSecOps strategies, enabling CI/CD automation, environment configuration, and monitoring using tools such as Dynatrace and Splunk.

  • Purposefulness: You have a desire to serve others with your skillset and an openness to continuous learning and growth.
  • Ownership: You stick to your commitments, follow up with action, and seek clarity in communication & expectations.

 

Your Experience:

• 10+ years of professional engineering experience building and supporting high-scale applications.

• Deep knowledge of MDM/PIM systems, particularly STEP, and experience in building data pipelines and integration services.

• Strong hands-on expertise with backend technologies including Java, C#, and .NET Core.

• Experience designing event-driven and asynchronous services using tools like Kafka, BizTalk, and GCP Dataflow.

• Background in database design and optimization, including SQL and NoSQL platforms.

• Familiarity with cloud infrastructure and development in Google Cloud Platform.

• Experience with API management tools and gateway platforms such as Apigee or DataPower.

• Solid understanding of CI/CD, infrastructure-as-code, and automated testing practices.

• Effective communicator with experience working in Agile environments and mentoring teams.

WE'D LOVE IT IF YOU HAVE:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related technical discipline.

• STEP PIM/MDM training or certification.

• Experience supporting both greenfield solutions and legacy modernization efforts.

• Domain exposure in retail, product data, or large-scale transactional systems.

• Proficiency with Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Slides, Gmail).

WHAT WE OFFER:

• Competitive compensation with opportunities for additional incentives. The annual salary range for this role is $150,000-200,000.
• Work/life balance – we know there’s more to life than work! We encourage our team to pursue other passions, get outside, and spend time with family. We work with clients and consultants to set expectations for a manageable workload.
