  • Working with another engineer to plan and build features

  • 4+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • Strong backend development experience in Python, C#, or a similar language
  • Experience building APIs, services, or full-stack applications

  • Ability to troubleshoot production issues
  • Ability to work directly with technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills

  • Document processing, OCR, or data extraction
  • Workflow automation, RPA, or low-code tools
  • Infrastructure as Code experience with Bicep, Terraform, or similar
  • Observability experience with Application Insights, Azure Monitor, OpenTelemetry, or structured logging
  • Healthcare, insurance, finance, manufacturing, logistics, or other complex industry experience
