    • Expertise in designing modern event-driven architecture into the product, driving for the highest standards, and utilizing AWS Lambda, S3, and other cloud-native technologies.
    • Extensive technical experience in designing and implementing SaaS products at scale, with a strong emphasis on maintainability, scalability, and reliability. Demonstrated ability to build technical alignment across multiple teams.
    • A history of mentoring and coaching senior and junior engineers, maximizing their technical potential in Java development and AWS cloud architecture.
    • Polyglot experience with multiple object-oriented programming languages (e.g., Java, Ruby, Go, etc.).
    • Mastery of large-scale database solutions, including relational databases and SQL.
    • Deep knowledge of modern web security features (e.g., authorization, identification, certificates, keychain, SSO, OAuth, SSL, 2FA, OAUTH, CSP, HSTS, SRI, CORS).
