    • Working across a 50/50 Java and TypeScript stack
    • Designing and supporting cloud-based systems in AWS

    • Solid experience with Java and TypeScript
    • Strong API development and system integration skills
    • Experience working in AWS environments
    • Comfortable with TDD and collaborative engineering practices
    • Able to pick up new domains quickly and work in fast-paced teams

    Nice to have:
