About the Role

This is a hands-on engineering role, not a lead or architect position. You ll build scalable, cloud-native integration services on AWS using serverless infrastructure and secure messaging systems. You ll work with a small team to support next-gen cloud-to-cloud and cloud-to-on-prem integrations for core enterprise data workflows.

What You ll Do

You ll code, test, and deploy production-grade integration services in the cloud, with a heavy focus on:

  • Python-based AWS Lambda development (serverless, event-driven functions)

  • Kafka setup and configuration, including queue management, JMS, MQ-based messaging

  • File-based integrations using XML and encrypted file handling (PGP, SFTP)

  • Cloud-to-cloud and hybrid integration patterns

  • AI-integrated services using tools like Amazon Q

  • Message transformation pipelines (Message In Transform Message Out)

  • Build and support robust, auditable workflows for mission-critical data exchange

What You ll Bring

Required Experience

  • 15+ years of software development experience, including:

    • At least 3 years building serverless services using Python and AWS Lambda

    • Kafka expertise: Setup, tuning, and managing Kafka queues

    • Deep familiarity with message brokers (JMS, MQ)

    • Strong experience with encrypted file processing and workflow automation

    • Experience building data integrations across cloud and on-prem environments

    • Comfort working with XML file generation, transformation logic

  • You thrive in individual contributor roles and prefer hands-on coding vs. team leadership.

EXTRAS TO CONSIDER:

  • Occasional travel to Dallas gives you facetime with stakeholders, but you ll otherwise work remotely and autonomously

  • Relocation not required but you must live in EST, CST, or MST
