Requirements and responsibilities

Readable role content extracted into sections for faster review.

Required

  • You've built shared components or platform services that other teams depended on, and you stayed accountable for them afterward. This is not a first platform role.

Required

  • Real depth in domain-driven design and event-driven architecture. You can explain why a bounded context sits where it does, what an anti-corruption layer bought you, and which flavor of event-driven you were actually doing.

Required

  • You've built the production systems behind an AI feature, against data that was messy, governed, and inconveniently shaped. The model itself is someone else's problem.

Required

  • You've carried a pager for a system other teams depended on.

Required

  • Breadth across more than one language and paradigm, with real depth in at least one. Tell us about a time you had to get productive in an unfamiliar stack fast, and what that took.

Required

  • Data modeling and query performance under real load. Some of our shared components sit on the hot path for every request.

Required

  • AI-augmented development is already how you work, and you know where it holds up and where it needs a human check.

Preferred

  • Experience shipping meaningful customer-facing AI features (more than just a chatbot)

Preferred

  • PHI or other regulated data in an AI or analytics path

Preferred

  • Multi-tenant SaaS at scale, with tenant isolation as a data-layer concern

Preferred

  • Node and TypeScript, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, AWS

  • Contract testing or service virtualization in an event-driven system
