About the Role : As a key technical leader, you will own the architecture and delivery of high-availability, low-latency API services and user applications that power Brivo's core Access Control platform and services.

The primary objective is the rapid development of AI-enabled features to build the best platform for Smart Spaces.

Responsibilities

• Deliver high-quality, responsive user experiences using modern JavaScript frameworks, specifically React / TypeScript.
• Drive technical design, document key decisions (e.g., Architecture Decision Records - ADRs), and participate rigorously in code reviews and design sessions to maintain the highest quality engineering standards.
• Own the Cloud Infrastructure and deployment pipelines, utilizing AWS, Kubernetes, and CI / CD tools (e.g., Jenkins) to automate provisioning and ensure continuous integration and delivery.
• Collaborate effectively with product managers, designers, and QA to design and deliver high-quality features. Work within an Agile team to complete sprint planning, backlog grooming, feature reviews, and closely support your Team Lead with project scoping.
• Troubleshoot and resolve complex, high-impact production issues, taking full responsibility for application ownership. Proactively identify security vulnerabilities and optimize database performance and data models within PostgreSQL.
• Set a high bar for engineering excellence and serve as a technical mentor to team members, driving process improvements and promoting best practices across the engineering department.
• Partner with other teams across the organization to support the company's mission through architectural and technical improvements.
