Job Responsibilities
As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll play a key role in advancing our technology platform and building software products that make a meaningful impact. You’ll have the opportunity to lead technical efforts spanning multiple months across a large-scale system.

- Dive into unfamiliar code to troubleshoot or add a new feature

- 5+ years experience developing back-end services and APIs in a distributed, service-oriented architecture.
- 5+ years experience building large-scale front-end applications using modern frameworks (React highly desired, but Vue, or Angular are acceptable).
- 5+ years experience with data modeling using multiple database and storage types
- 3+ years experience designing and deploying services in the cloud (e.g. AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI).
Bonus points for:
