Brief Description

YOUR ROLE

As a Full Stack Developer on our team, you will design, build, and maintain internal applications, developer portals, automated workflows, and APIs that empower our engineering and cross-functional teams across the organization. You will streamline internal workflows, build user-friendly interfaces and services for provisioning ephemeral testing environments within CI/CD pipelines, construct efficient data integration pipelines, and collaborate with peers to continuously improve tooling so teams can build and ship faster.

What You'll Do

• Design, develop, and deploy full-stack web applications, internal developer portals, and microservices that automate manual processes across engineering and business teams.
• Build self-service web interfaces, CLI tools, and automated backend services to provision ephemeral environments, triggers, and pipelines within our CI/CD systems.
• Develop robust automated data pipelines to move, transform, and integrate data across internal systems and third-party services.
• Craft intuitive, responsive user interfaces and dashboards that give internal stakeholders real-time visibility into workflow automation, deployment status, and platform metrics.
• Apply security best practices, identity/auth controls, unit/integration testing, and compliance guardrails across full-stack applications and data workflows.
• Implement logging, monitoring, and tracing across applications and automated services to ensure high availability, performance, and clear incident visibility.
• Partner closely with engineering, product, and operations teams to gather requirements, iterate on feedback, and deliver high-impact developer experiences.
• Other duties and responsibilities as assigned.
