Job Details
Job Summary: We are looking for a Senior Apigee Developer with a strong background in API design, development, and security on Google Apigee Edge/X/Hybrid. You will be responsible for creating scalable, secure, and high-performance APIs, while also enabling developer productivity through Developer Portals, enforcing OAuth2.0/JWT-based security, and facilitating self-service API adoption via SSP (Self-Service Portal) integration.
Key Responsibilities:
Design, develop, and deploy API proxies using Apigee Edge/X/Hybrid, with policy flows for traffic shaping, mediation, transformation, and security.
Implement secure APIs using OAuth 2.0, JWT, and API Key mechanisms; integrate with identity providers (IDPs) using SSO/SAML.
Configure custom and out-of-the-box policies in Apigee for request/response handling, error management, and threat protection.
Develop and maintain Developer Portals using Apigee's integrated or Drupal-based portal, ensuring clear API documentation, onboarding workflows, and self-service access.
Enable Self-Service Portal (SSP) capabilities to streamline developer onboarding, app registration, and API key provisioning.
Set up API products, rate plans, environments, and access controls in Apigee.
Collaborate with API Product Managers, security teams, and architects to define API contracts, governance, and lifecycle management.
Monitor and troubleshoot APIs using Apigee Analytics, logging frameworks, and performance tuning techniques.
Integrate APIs with backend systems (e.g., microservices, legacy apps, SaaS) over REST/SOAP.
Drive CI/CD pipeline automation for API deployments using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or similar tools.
Create and maintain OpenAPI/Swagger specifications and test APIs with tools like Postman, SoapUI, and automated testing frameworks.
Required Qualifications:
Bachelor's/Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
Strong experience in API development and integration, with hands-on Apigee development.
Strong knowledge of OAuth 2.0 flows, JWT token validation, SSO integration, and API gateway security best practices.
Experience with Apigee Developer Portal, including custom theming, role-based access, and API publishing.
Hands-on experience with JavaScript, Node.js, Python, or Java for custom policy extensions.
Proficient in REST, JSON, XML, HTTP, and SOAP services.
Familiarity with API monetization, analytics, and lifecycle management within Apigee.
Understanding of DevOps principles and working with containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes).
