Payrate: $81.00 - $82.00/hr.
Summary:
- The Sr. Software Engineer will serve as a key technical contributor to the design and implementation of Java-based, cloud-native systems on AWS, shaping service architecture, data flows, and integration patterns that meet strict scalability, availability, and security requirements. This role will contribute architectural insight across microservices, event-driven, and asynchronous processing patterns, ensuring clear service ownership and well-defined contracts.
- The position will develop and maintain core backend services using modern Java frameworks and AWS-native patterns, including message-driven processing, distributed data management, and RESTful and event-based APIs. The Sr. Engineer will champion adoption of AWS services such as managed compute, messaging, storage, and databases, and will mentor junior engineers on standards for infrastructure as code, resiliency, fault tolerance, and graceful degradation.
- In addition, this role will model technical best practices for CI/CD automation, observability, logging, metrics, and tracing to support reliable operation of distributed systems in production. By proactively identifying architectural bottlenecks, scalability constraints, and technical debt, the Sr. Engineer will make significant contributions to improve system performance, reliability, and long‐term maintainability.
