About this Role
This team will be responsible for aggregating data sources to create a clear picture of what infrastructure was requested, what infrastructure was deployed, and proactively alert on any discrepancies. The team’s application will then be used by subject matter experts to investigate, create, and iterate on best practices and deployment rules. Then, the team will proactively identify and alert when requested or provisioned infrastructure breaks those best practices and rules. This team must interact with many stakeholders from across the organization and iterate as frequently as possible. As a full‑stack software engineer, you will design and build systems that aggregate and reconcile disparate datasets, helping customers see a clear picture of their environments. You will also contribute to proactive rule and compliance checks, ensuring best practices are continuously upheld.
Your contributions are…
- Design, develop, and maintain full‑stack applications (frontend and backend).
