SWE & App Arch Assoc Principal Engineer

Ship production Java end-to-end within a bounded context — partner with stakeholders to convert ambiguous asks into crisp specs, then design, build, and ship standards-compliant code in days. Own contracts, data model, and test strategy alongside the code. Use Claude Code as a force multiplier with the adversarial-review discipline to catch model drift before it merges. Hold the line on the team's quality gates: tests green, contract parity intact, observability wired in. "Done" means passes the gates — not "works on my machine."
