The Opportunity: The Developer III leads complex, cross program software projects and sets technical direction across multiple initiatives. As a senior full stack engineer and solution architect, you will mentor teams, establish best practices, and deliver advanced, scalable, cloud native solutions with a strong emphasis on DevSecOps, performance, accessibility, and reliability on AWS. This role is pivotal in driving architectural decisions, modern CI/CD execution, and SRE practices for mission critical systems.

You will operate as the senior technical authority within Agile delivery, shaping cloud architectures, microservice patterns, and security controls while guiding teams to high quality releases. You’ll pair deep hands on engineering with leadership—owning design reviews, enforcing standards, and ensuring production readiness, including off-hour deployment support when needed.

Champion containerization (Docker) and Kubernetes orchestration with robust observability, security, and resiliency controls.
  • Quality, SRE & PerformanceEstablish automated testing strategies (unit, integration, contract, performance, accessibility) and integrate results into pipelines. Drive SRE practices: performance monitoring, alerting, error budgets, capacity planning, and incident response; lead off hours deployment windows when required.
  • Leadership & MentorshipMentor engineers across multiple teams; lead design reviews, pair programming sessions, and technical deep dives to elevate engineering maturity. Partner with Product Owners, BAs, QA, and Security to align scope, acceptance criteria, risk posture, and compliance expectations.

  • Exceptional communication skills; proven success in distributed collaboration and commitment to continuous learning.

Desired:

  • AWS Solutions Architect Associate, AWS Developer Associate, or AWS DevOps Professional.
  • Advanced tooling and platforms: Docker, Kubernetes, JMS/SQS/SNS, Kafka, AWS Lambda, NiFi; PKI familiarity.
  • Experience with Mocha/Chai or comparable test frameworks; strong background in DevOps environments and COTS/GOTS toolchains.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
