• Collaborate with engineering program management to meet compliance, security, and infrastructure requirements.
• Build deep expertise in the compensation module and its legacy systems, contributing enhancements and new capabilities.
• Drive the full development lifecycle — from requirement analysis and architectural planning to development, testing, and delivery.
• Explore areas of specialization aligned with your interests: full-stack engineering, DevOps, software security, QA automation, or business processes.
• Mentor and support junior engineers in navigating design and implementation challenges.

• Proven ability to write clean, maintainable, and scalable code.
• Strong collaboration skills with product managers, architects, and other engineering stakeholders.
