• Advanced, hands-on experience developing modern applications with Angular.
• Experience with Angular 17 or newer; Angular 20 experience is preferred.
• Proficiency with JavaScript and TypeScript.
• Experience developing backend services using Java and Spring/Spring Boot.
• Strong understanding of object-oriented design principles and techniques.
• Experience developing and consuming REST APIs; GraphQL experience is beneficial.
• Experience writing automated tests using tools such as Playwright, JUnit, and Postman.
• Knowledge of CI/CD practices and tools such as GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps.
• Experience with GitHub or comparable source-control platforms.
• Familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud-based application environments.
• Ability to optimize solutions for performance, resiliency, and reliability while maintaining simplicity.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to communicate through documentation, code, and technical diagrams.
• Experience working in Agile environments using Scrum or Kanban.

Preferred:

• Experience with high-volume consumer websites, search platforms, or availability systems.
• Demonstrated success delivering integrations across multiple engineering teams.
• Experience leading data-mapping and interface-design activities.
• Experience with Azure, AWS, or IBM cloud platforms.
• Familiarity with PostgreSQL or MongoDB.
• A strong personal interest in software development, including experimentation with technologies, personal projects, open-source contributions, or other hands-on technical exploration.

Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, test, and document high-quality software components, interfaces, APIs, scripts, and processes.
• Build and enhance customer-facing search and availability functionality using Angular and Java.
• Develop reusable components and libraries that can support multiple teams and product areas.
• Deliver scalable, reliable, and maintainable solutions for large production environments.
• Collaborate with product, business, engineering, and vendor stakeholders to translate requirements into technical solutions.
• Deliver system interfaces across multiple teams and resolve complex integration issues.
• Participate in data-mapping activities to ensure consistent and reliable data exchange.
• Conduct root-cause analyses, identify systemic issues, and lead corrective actions.
• Anticipate scalability, latency, resiliency, and durability challenges and implement practical mitigation strategies.
• Identify and reduce technical debt while supporting new product initiatives.
• Incorporate security-conscious engineering practices throughout the software-development lifecycle.
• Optimize system designs so teams can deliver small, safe, incremental releases.
• Identify opportunities to eliminate duplicate effort and create reusable solutions.
• Coach junior engineers and promote strong technical craftsmanship.
• Evaluate emerging technologies and develop prototypes when appropriate.
• You will bring a systems-thinking mindset and deliver high-quality, scalable solutions while proactively addressing technical debt, integration complexity, performance, resiliency, and reliability.
