• Proficient in back-end technologies like Node.js or Python.
• Ability to troubleshoot and develop solutions across multiple layers of the system, from user interfaces to device communication.
• Experience applying modern software development practices, including automated testing, version control (Git), build automation, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Legal authorization to work in the United States without sponsorship now or in the future. 
  • Individuals with temporary visas such as E, F-1 (including those with OPT or CPT), H-1, H-2, L-1, B, J or TN, or who need sponsorship for work authorization now or in the future, are not eligible for hire.
