Frontend Engineering (JavaScript) Develop rich, accessible UIs using React (preferred) or Angular/Vue. Establish reusable component libraries, state management, and client‑side performance budgets. Integrate telemetry and feature flags for safe incremental delivery. Data & SQL Design normalized schemas with pragmatic denormalization for reporting. Write performant SQL (queries, views, stored procedures); tune indexes and query plans. Implement migration scripts, ETL helpers, and enforce data quality guardrails. Quality, Security & Reliability Champion TDD/BDD, rigorous code reviews, static analysis, and secure coding (OWASP). Own CI/CD pipelines (build, test, scan, deploy) and rollout strategies (blue/green, canary). Instrument services with logs, metrics, and traces; define SLOs and error budgets. Leadership & Collaboration Mentor engineers; lead design reviews and pairing. Partner with Product/Design/Data to turn requirements into executable plans. Lead technical spikes/POCs and influence the roadmap with data‑driven proposals. Qualifications Backend: Strong professional experience building enterprise services in PHP using Laravel/Symfony (or equivalent). Frontend: Advanced JavaScript with a modern framework (React preferred; Angular/Vue acceptable). Data: Deep SQL proficiency (PostgreSQL/MySQL/SQL Server), including indexing strategy, query‑plan optimization, and transaction semantics. Integration & APIs: REST/JSON; webhook design and idempotency. (GraphQL/gRPC familiarity is a plus.) Testing & CI/CD: PHPUnit; GitHub Actions/Azure DevOps/Jenkins; Docker‑based builds. Cloud & Runtime: Deployments on Azure; Docker; familiarity with Kubernetes fundamentals. Security & Compliance: OAuth2/JWT, secrets management, least‑privilege design, vulnerability remediation. Soft Skills: Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and technical leadership. Advantage Language (Nice to Have) Java (Advantage Language): Practical experience in Java (language fundamentals, collections, concurrency, JVM performance).
