Position Summary: At Miovision, we are paving the road for the future of smart transportation, and our Platform Engineering team is the ultimate interchange connecting it all. We are looking for a Senior Software Developer to take the wheel and build our unified API gateway—the high-speed express lane that powers everything from our web apps to our AI-driven workflows. You will act as the master traffic controller for our API ecosystem, ensuring data routes securely, seamlessly, and at scale without hitting a bottleneck. If you are ready to lay the concrete for our unified front door, write high-performance code, and keep our rapidly expanding product ecosystem running on all cylinders, green means go! Objectives and Responsibilities: - Build the Gateway: Design, build, scale, and maintain our stateless API gateway, serving as the highly performant front door for all Miovision applications and services. - Architect for Scale: Keep architectural boundaries crisp by maintaining domain business logic in owning services, utilizing the platform API layer strictly for routing, access control, and formatting standards. - Commercialize the API: Embed usage tracking, billing hooks, tenant-aware access control, and rock-solid observability into the platform from day one. - Govern and Standardize: Partner with Architecture, Product, Security, and domain teams to enforce strict API governance, including versioning, backward compatibility, API linting, and contract testing. - Enable AI & Automation: Design machine-readable, agent-friendly API contracts that empower our AI chatbot (Mateo), MCP servers, and future AI agents to safely discover and invoke Miovision capabilities. - Drive Consensus: Champion cross-team alignment on complex domain modeling, resource naming, and API structures, transforming tough debates into clean, durable API contracts. - Publish & Document: Create crystal-clear service catalog entries and developer-friendly documentation so consumers can easily discover, understand, and adopt platform capabilities. - Code & Mentor: Roll up your sleeves to write high-quality code (primarily in Kotlin or Go), actively utilize AI-assisted development tools (like AMP), and mentor peers through deep technical design and code reviews. The Ideal Profile: - The API Architect: You have successfully designed, deployed, and scaled a centralized API gateway within a highly complex, multi-service production environment. - The Domain Modeler: You bring deep experience in Domain-Driven Design (DDD) and API-first methodologies (using OpenAPI), with a proven track record of driving cross-team consensus on complex data structures. - The Platform Builder: You know how to take fragmented internal services or APIs and beautifully transform them into a cohesive, commercially ready developer platform or service catalog. - The Code Craftsman: You boast expert-level proficiency in Kotlin, perfectly paired with extensive hands-on experience in cloud-native ecosystems including Kubernetes, Docker, and AWS. - The Security Sentinel: You have successfully implemented and enforced robust authentication and authorization patterns at the edge, utilizing modern protocols like OIDC, OAuth 2.0, and platforms like Auth0. - The AI Enthusiast: You demonstrate a strong understanding of—or a highly active interest in—how AI agents, LLMs, and frameworks like MCP (Model Context Protocol) interact seamlessly and securely with APIs. Your Rewards & Well-being: We invest in our team with benefits designed for modern life and true work-life balance. - Comprehensive Coverage: Your well-being is covered from day one with comprehensive health benefits, 24/7 virtual healthcare access, and dedicated wellness programs. - Financial Future: Build for tomorrow with our RRSP/401K Matching Plan and share in the company's success through our Variable Incentive Plan. - Time to Recharge: Truly unplug with our unique Mio-Days and flexible vacation policy. - Work & Life Support: We support you with flexible work options, an internet subsidy, a remote work allowance, and enhanced leave for new parents.
