Description

Backend Services is an engineering discipline that focuses on developing and managing collection of self contained distributed (software) and embedded (IoT, PLC/HMIs etc.) services. These services are designed to be highly available and reliable. They are built on reusable tools, adapters, common architecture and compute design patterns. They power workflows, business logic, transformation and bi-directional communication of infrastructure, data sources, data platforms and API/Edge services thereby forming core systems. RESPONSIBILITIES: Design, develop, test, deploy, maintain and improve software Contribute to end-to-end solution design & development with work on the backend Build underlying data & service layers used by applications to interact with data stores such as MS SQL, Oracle and more Participate in the design of contracts and schemas for APIs and middleware services Establish patterns, build component libraries, and contribute to documentation Embrace continuous learning in daily work on company time to work towards company paid certifications and accreditations. QUALIFICATIONS: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, related field or equivalent experience Real-world experience developing scalable software Excellent understanding of the SLDC (Software Development Lifecycle) and end-to-end solution execution Experience with design, implementation, and consumption of API services and service-oriented architecture patterns Experience utilizing C# .NET and/or Python in building backend services, adapters and tools Experience with decoupled distributed services Experience in debugging and profiling applications, and improving their efficiency, scalability, and stability Experience working with RESTful and event-driven architectures Working knowledge of Azure cloud services Working knowledge of OpenAPI / Swagger spec Familiarity with modern authorization mechanisms that enable secure, role-based access Core programming concepts, such as algorithms and data structures Proficiency with Git, Azure DevOps or other CI/CD tooling Working knowledge of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and Terraform is a plus Working knowledge of GraphQL and other API strategies is a plus
