- Integrate applications with external systems such as IPAM, DNS, configuration management, monitoring, and ITSM platforms.
- Implement monitoring, structured logging, and automated testing using Prometheus and modern testing frameworks.
- Work independently with IT Infrastructure and Security teams to convert operational requirements into reliable, scalable software solutions.
- Troubleshoot application, infrastructure, networking, authentication, CI/CD, and deployment issues.
Basic Qualifications :
- Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, IT, or equivalent experience.
- 7+ years of hands-on software development experience with proven experience delivering production applications.
- Strong experience with Go, Python, TypeScript/JavaScript, REST APIs, and PostgreSQL.
- Hands-on experience with Terraform/HCL, Ansible/AWX, Docker, Kubernetes, and GitLab CI/CD.
- Strong experience with modern frontend development, preferably Angular 17+, RxJS, and Monaco Editor.

Project / Portfolio :
- Candidates should have demonstrable experience building and implementing real-world applications, automation, or infrastructure projects.
- A personal GitHub profile or portfolio is preferred where candidates can share examples of their work.
- Candidates who cannot share proprietary enterprise code should be able to discuss relevant projects, architecture, technologies, and their individual contribution during the technical evaluation.
Ideal Candidate :
- We are looking for a hands-on builder and strong individual contributor who can take an IT/Security requirement and independently deliver the solution from architecture - development - infrastructure - CI/CD - testing - deployment.
- The ideal candidate combines strong software engineering skills with practical infrastructure and DevOps expertise and can build new applications rather than simply configure or maintain existing platforms.
