Sr. Software Engineer, HubOps

DroneUp is seeking a Sr. Software Engineer (non-manager) who will be responsible for designing, developing, maintaining, and continuously improving and supporting both internal and customer-facing API gateways. This includes the way they authenticate, authorize, bill and throttle the incoming calls, the tooling that makes those APIs self-service, as well as the instrumentation, observability and scalability of our APIs. Additionally, the Sr. Software Engineer will broadly support, architect, and drive internal core shared services. The ideal candidate is a strong polyglot software developer with experience in using cloud infrastructure to support software engineering projects. Sr. engineers are also expected to mentor, grow and pair with other software engineers. Some of our principles in Software Engineering are: high collaboration, ownership of code and related CI/CD and cloud components through production, a bias towards automation, and emotional intelligence.
