We need our engineers to be versatile, display exceptional leadership qualities, and be enthusiastic to take on new problems across the full-stack as we continue to push technology forward. Across the business, we primarily use C# .Net Core, hosted on AWS with event-driven microservices, but we're happy to up-skill engineers from certain backgrounds like Java to adapt to our stack. With your technical expertise, you will lead project priorities, deadlines, and deliverables. You will design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and enhance software solutions.

• Experience working in agile environments and delivering high-quality code within tight deadlines.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently as well as part of a team.
