- Build modern user-facing functionality using Angular or React while integrating front-end components with backend services and workflows
- Work with Oracle and SQL to develop queries, support application data requirements, and troubleshoot data-related issues
- Contribute to a new product and workflow platform, translating business requirements into production-ready functionality rather than primarily supporting or modernizing existing applications
- Use AI engineering tools such as Claude, Codex, Windsurf, or similar tools to accelerate development, testing, and engineering productivity
- Develop unit tests, review code, and maintain strong engineering standards throughout the development lifecycle
- Support automated build, testing, deployment, and release processes using modern CI/CD and DevOps practices

- Strong Oracle and SQL experience, including writing and troubleshooting SQL queries
- Experience building microservices, REST APIs, and application integrations
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines and modern software development practices
