    • Rapidly prototype and ship functional features to solve immediate operational bottlenecks
    • Maintain internal security standards and audit trails for all manual interventions
    • Work closely with internal stakeholders to gather requirements and iterate on tooling

    Required competency and skillset to be a waver:

    • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field
    • 5-9 years of software engineering experience with full-stack or backend capabilities
    • Strong understanding of internal security principles, authorization frameworks, and RBAC
    • Ability to prioritize speed-to-delivery and operational efficiency over pixel-perfect user interfaces
