First seen by Alion on Oct 27, 2026.
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology or a
related discipline; a Master's degree or relevant professional certification (cloud, security
or architecture) is desirable.
● 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, predominantly in Java and
enterprise back-end development.
● 2+ years leading engineers — as a tech lead, team lead or engineering manager —
including responsibility for the technical direction and development of others; formal line
management experience is strongly preferred.
● Demonstrable experience designing and delivering system-to-system integrations and
APIs in an enterprise environment, including working directly with third-party or client
technical teams.
● Experience operating production services at scale, including on-call or escalation
responsibility, incident management and root cause analysis.
● Experience working in Agile delivery with product owners and distributed teams, and of
engaging stakeholders in different time zones.
● Experience in HR technology, recruitment technology, staffing or a comparable
data-integration-heavy domain is an advantage but not a requirement.
● Seniority: middle management — a senior individual technical contributor who also
carries formal people management responsibility for a small team.
