## Description

Design, develop, and support scalable services using Java and Python, deployed and operated on AWS.
Build and maintain automation and tooling (Java/Python) to improve environment readiness and consistency (health checks, dependency validation, configuration verification, smoke checks).
Implement and operate CI/CD improvements (pre-flight checks, quality gates, automated verification) to reduce failures, rework, and time-to-unblock.
Troubleshoot complex issues across AWS and distributed systems (IAM/permissions, networking/connectivity, secrets/configuration, dependency failures) and drive resolution to closure.
Modernize existing Java/Python/AWS applications to improve reliability, maintainability, and engineering velocity; contribute to architecture and design artifacts as needed.
Produce and maintain runbooks, operational documentation, and self-service guidance to reduce tribal knowledge and improve supportability.
Collaborate with partner teams (platform/SRE, security, dependency service owners, product teams) to gather requirements, align on solutions, and deliver high-quality outcomes under changing priorities.
Uphold strong engineering standards (code quality, testing discipline, security, resiliency) and mentor other engineers as needed.
