Collaborate closely with the scrum master, technical leads, other developers, and product owner to ensure that the system is bettering both the client experience & our security posture.

Support junior engineers with their tasks and act as a role model for them, especially related to quality focus and excellent code design.

Own the deployment and operations of the system across environments from development, test, and through to production.

Collaborate with global teams in Australia and the United States to share experiences, learnings, and best practices for building our fraud program.

Participate in agile meetings aligned to the scrum framework: sprint planning, daily scrums, sprint review, sprint retrospective, and so on.

Qualifications we're looking for:

A bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related discipline is a plus, but not strictly required.

A strong handle on industry standards and best practices as it relates to development methodology, software architecture, design principles (e.g. SOLID), design patterns, automated testing strategies.

Experience building and consuming web services, and familiarly with microservices-based architectures is a benefit.

Exemplary communication skills: the ability to bridge the gap between the technical and non-technical across various communication channels.

An understanding of agile software development methodology, with scrum framework experience preferred.

A desire to continuously learn and develop oneself in both technical and non-technical skillsets.
