• Hands-on experience building and consuming RESTful APIs, with a solid understanding of how front-end and back-end systems integrate in cloud-native SaaS environments (e.g., Azure).
• Strong SQL skills, including schema design, query optimization, and stored procedure development, with awareness of data security and injection prevention best practices.
• Experience building and maintaining CI/CD pipelines with automated testing, including end-to-end test authoring using tools such as Playwright or similar frameworks.
• Proficiency with API development and testing tools (e.g., Postman, Swagger) and a strong understanding of API design principles, including authentication and authorization patterns such as OAuth and JWT.
• Familiarity with secure coding principles, including input validation, least-privilege access, secrets management, and adherence to OWASP guidelines across both front-end and back-end code.
• Sound knowledge of UI/UX principles and front-end best practices, with experience maintaining design systems and component libraries.
• Exceptional collaboration, problem-solving, and communication skills, with a passion for building end-to-end features in a fast-paced, cross-functional team environment.
• A Bachelor's degree or equivalent qualification in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field is preferred.
• Fluency in English with strong written and verbal communication skills; additional proficiency in Spanish or other languages is a plus to support global customer interactions.
• Candidates must already have a work authorization that would permit them to work for ABB in the US.
