Employer job description
From OpenDataJobs's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
The work
Software Engineers working on back-end and cloud systems build the services that enforce application behavior, connect systems, and move trusted work through production. They turn product and operational requirements into HTTP APIs, business logic, integrations, asynchronous workflows, and data-access components.
The work runs in containers, serverless functions, virtual machines, or managed cloud services. You design service boundaries and contracts, handle identity and authorization, validate inputs and dependencies, manage failure and retry behavior, and make the system observable through logs, metrics, and traces. You also test changes and automate delivery so the service can evolve without guesswork.
This role owns production service behavior, not just endpoint code. Back-end and cloud engineers work with front-end developers, data teams, security, quality engineering, and platform or DevSecOps teams to balance reliability, security, performance, maintainability, and cost.
