Background & Experience:

• Experience with full-stack development, including working knowledge of modern frontend frameworks (e.g., React, Vue, or Angular) to build responsive web applications
• Solid proficiency in languages suited for API integration and automation (e.g., Python, Go, or Node.js)
• Hands-on experience working with APIs, OAuth/OIDC authentication flows, webhooks, and building integration layers
• Familiarity with hosting custom tooling in cloud environments (preferably AWS), utilizing serverless architectures (Lambda) or containerization (Docker/Kubernetes)
• Solid understanding of foundational enterprise security concepts, particularly Identity & Access Management (IAM), Zero Trust, and Endpoint/Mobile Security (MAM/MDM)
• Experience or familiarity with CI/CD release automation (Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions), Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), and system debugging
