Job description

  • Production-grade Node.js services on AWS Lambda, API Gateway, and event-driven serverless patterns.
  • Secure APIs and integrations across internal systems, customer data, and third-party platforms.
  • Technical patterns, implementation standards, and reusable services for the broader contact center systems roadmap.
  • Observability pipelines using OpenSearch, CloudWatch, Kibana, Snowflake, and structured logging.
  • Automation and AI-enabled workflows that improve routing, agent support, troubleshooting, and operational visibility.
  • Migration tooling and services that help move legacy telephony and contact center workflows onto modern platforms, with enough design discipline to support future scale.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of backend software engineering experience, ideally with Node.js or TypeScript.
  • Strong API design, system architecture, integration, debugging, and asynchronous systems experience.
  • Hands-on experience with AWS Lambda or similar cloud/serverless architecture.
  • Experience with logging, monitoring, search, data pipelines, or production observability.
  • Practical use of AI coding assistants for development, testing, refactoring, and troubleshooting.
  • Fluency with GitHub workflows, including pull requests, code review, branching, and CI/CD collaboration.
  • Senior-level judgment to turn ambiguous operational problems into clean, maintainable technical solutions.

Helpful Domain Experience

  • Experience in contact center, telephony, customer support, or workflow automation environments.
  • Exposure to platforms such as Genesys Cloud, Twilio, Five9, NICE, Zoom Contact Center, or Avaya.
  • Familiarity with routing, queues, IVR, SIP, phone number management, call metadata, or agent-assist workflows.
  • Experience with Snowflake SQL, Terraform, CloudFormation, AWS SAM, or related infrastructure tooling.
