- Support CI/CD pipelines, release readiness activities, and production monitoring practices.
- Provide day-to-day technical leadership across feature teams, influencing technical direction without formal line management responsibility. Mentor engineers and senior developers, strengthening architectural thinking, design quality, and engineering best practices.
- Partner with cross-functional teams across sites to ensure alignment on shared platform components and integration strategies. Support troubleshooting of complex production issues, root-cause investigations, and implementation of durable technical fixes.
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
- Proficiency in at least one modern programming language (e.g., Kotlin, Java, or similar).
- Experience working with APIs, data handling, and integration patterns.

- Experience working on public-safety, communications, defense, or highly regulated enterprise platforms. Experience integrating with real-time communications, messaging, or radio communication systems.
- Experience with dependency injection frameworks (Hilt/Dagger), modern testing frameworks, and CI/CD automation.
- Familiarity with Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) and Compose Multiplatform.
- Experience guiding cross-team technical initiatives, reusable platform components, or shared architecture standards.
