  • Build and maintain high-quality enterprise software using TypeScript, REST APIs, and JSON.
About You:
  • Proficiency in TypeScript/JavaScript, React, and Node.js.
  • Strong knowledge of security architecture, LDAP, Active Directory, SAML, SSO,, OAuth2, OpenID Connect and web protocols like XML, SOAP, JSON, and REST.
  • Familiarity with access control models such as RBAC, ABAC and ReBAC.  
  • Experience with SQL.
  • Practical experience developing and improving applications written in Node.js.
  • Exhibit excellent problem-solving abilities and effective communication skills, especially when collaborating with diverse teams.

  • Flexible Time Off.
  • We will provide you the gear you need to do your role, and a WFH budget for you to outfit your space as needed.
