- Drive delivery of business-critical systems on time and with high quality
What You Bring
- 7–8+ years of full stack development experience

- Strong ability to own and drive end-to-end design and development
- Excellent communication skills and ability to collaborate cross-functionally

- Familiarity with containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, AKS)
- Experience with Spring / Spring Boot
- Knowledge of scalable web platforms and distributed systems
Nice to Have
- Experience with React Native (mobile development)
- Exposure to AI/ML-driven features or integrations
- Familiarity with Adobe Experience Cloud / Adobe stack

What You’ll Be Working On
- Building new, customer-facing capabilities within a modern Member Portal
