Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- You develop and operate services, integrations, and tooling within our API ecosystem in a regulated, mission-critical environment.
- You treat APIs as product-like interfaces – understandable, stable, and consumable from the perspective of their users.
- In this role, you work closely with DevOps, platform teams, and the API ecosystem lead to ensure that your implementations are robust, compliant, and developer-friendly — both internally and for partners.
- You design and implement backend services and APIs with a clear consumer perspective - consistently, transparently, and with predictable behavior within the established API ecosystem.
- You utilize AI-powered development workflows as a core part of your daily work — for example, for Contract Validation, Test Generation, Consistency Checks, Refactoring, and Documentation — to enhance API quality and ecosystem reliability.
- You maintain clear, versioned API contracts (e.g., OpenAPI) that align with the actual system behavior, and you consider integration effort and backward compatibility as part of your daily engineering decisions.
- You implement API consumers, integrations, and partner-side features based on the ecosystem standards.
- You work closely with DevOps and Platform teams to ensure operability, observability, and reliability.
- You ensure that regulatory and compliance requirements are reflected in code and technical design.
- You actively provide feedback to improve ecosystem standards, tooling, and developer experience, and proactively raise API usability issues or inconsistencies.
