Web Services Senior Developer 1

This role combines strong technical expertise with a commitment to mentorship, quality, and ownership.

Senior Developers I take on complex technical tasks, influence architectural decisions, and champion engineering best practices throughout the development lifecycle, with particular emphasis on designing scalable and maintainable APIs and event-driven systems within AWS.

They balance strong execution with long-term system health and maintainability, working independently with minimal oversight while collaborating closely with cross-functional partners.
