You will spend your days exploring high-level script automation, system integrations, security concepts, and fast-paced R&D iterations.

Key Responsibilities

• Rapid Prototyping & Development: Build, test, and deploy software quickly in a fast-changing R&D environment.

• Cross-Functional R&D: Work across varied technical challenges, touching different projects, scripts, or systems on a regular basis.

• Core Coding: Main development in JavaScript and Python, tackling complex technical logic independently.

• Full Delivery Lifecycle: Take ownership of solutions from initial concept through to validation, including writing unit/integration tests and verifying build stability.

• Team Collaboration: Help shape culture, technical workflows, and best practices within a newly formed engineering unit.
