Senior Software Engineer

Do you have the skills-and drive-to join a tech team that's working to rebuild and re-envision a core business capability platform?

Our team's mission is to breakdown the monolithic system that exists today and build a new framework with all the latest and greatest technologies: Kafka, DocumentDB, GraphQL, Microservices, Spring Boot, etc. We're looking to grow our team with those who are highly motivated, passionate, and eager to experiment and drive forward change! This includes rethinking design patterns, technologies, and our architecture. As a member of this squad, you'll be involved in vision sessions, event mapping, exploratory design and research efforts, and building this new system from the ground up!

Thanks for considering joining us on this journey!
