What We're Looking For in a Person Fast learner — This is a large, multi-module codebase spanning 4 repositories with many integrations. You need to orient yourself quickly, read existing code, and understand the domain Proactive problem solver — You identify technical issues (stale dependencies, flaky tests, architectural drift, security gaps) before they become blockers and take initiative to resolve them Product-minded engineer — You care about the end-user impact of your work, not just the technical implementation. You push features forward and participate in design decisions Strong communicator — You can articulate technical trade-offs, document your decisions (the team maintains coding standards and architecture docs), and collaborate across service boundaries Comfortable with complexity — Multiple databases, multiple Azure integrations, async messaging flows, legacy code alongside modern modules — you thrive in environments where not everything is perfectly clean
