  • Participate in debugging, logging, and system observability improvements
  • Ensure code quality, performance, and reliability through best practices

What You'll Work On

  • A complex invoicing platform responsible for generating accurate order receipts
  • Systems that aggregate data from multiple services to calculate totals
  • Edge-case scenarios involving Tax variations across regions, Payment types (e.g., benefits-based payments), Item substitutions and order changes
  • Ongoing system rewrite efforts, improving scalability and maintainability

Required Qualifications
