  • Define communication contracts and processes
  • Apply strong data modelling and automated testing across integrations
  • Work within architectural governance for cross-account AWS integration
  • Take assigned stories end-to-end through to production via BAU release, defect and change processes

  • Python and lightweight Angular where beneficial
  • Experience building reusable services and APIs for onboarding data feeds/applications
