Overview
We are seeking a Senior Backend Software Developer to join our team in building highly secure, scalable, and mission-critical API services for our Federal Government clients. This role focuses on designing, developing, and maintaining the core backend infrastructure that powers data and machine learning applications.
Key Responsibilities
• As a Senior Backend Developer, you will:
• API & Microservice Development: Design, develop, and maintain robust, high-performance APIs and microservices. You will specialize in creating structured interfaces using REST and potentially GraphQL, integrating with diverse data sources and services.
