Essential experience
Candidates typically bring three+ years of professional engineering experience from a comparable environment. Experience working on production systems where quality and reliability are important. Familiarity with a JVM language (Java, Kotlin, Scala) or a similar backend language, React or another modern frontend framework. Strong SQL and relational database skills, ideally Oracle or PostgreSQL, including query performance. Experience supporting production systems: diagnosing incidents from logs and metrics. Prior on-call experience is a plus.
Critical skills
A strong grasp of building and maintaining features within a larger system is helpful. Confidence with automated testing, CI/CD pipelines, and code review workflows is expected. Clear thinking, good problem-solving ability, and the capacity to work with domain-heavy logic contribute to success in the role. Experience with enterprise or workflow-driven applications is an advantage.
Traits and mindset
Curiosity and a willingness to learn the maritime domain are appreciated. A collaborative working style, comfort sharing ideas in cross-functional settings, and the ability to work independently when needed all support strong performance. Adaptability is important as the product and architecture continue to evolve.
Core competencies
Systems thinking, ownership of outcomes, strong communication skills, and effective collaboration are central to this role. A motivation to create value for customers and contribute to a stable, evolving platform is essential.
