About the company
Our client is a technology company.
The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. This engineer will connect older desktop software and cloud business platforms with newer backend services. The role centers on owning server-side code from design through release, and on creating a shared connection layer so that each new link stays apart from core application logic.
What you'll do
- Create and maintain connectors that link Windows desktop programs with hosted business platforms.
- Work with dated enterprise applications through screen automation, direct database queries and file transfers.
- Extend a common connection layer that many connectors share.
- Take ownership of server-side services in production, from design through deployment and support.
Requirements
What we're looking for
- Hands-on record of fully carrying production server-side systems, not only contributing to them.
- Track record of shipping live connections to legacy enterprise software, using low-level data access or Windows-level automation techniques.
- Background in designing a connection layer that keeps integration code separate from application logic.
- Experience building a shared connection layer that several connectors rely on.
- Startup experience at an early stage, preferably at a company building specialised software for legacy environments.
Bonus points
- Familiarity with the .NET ecosystem, Windows desktop app development or robotic process automation platforms.
- Working knowledge of TypeScript.
- Reverse-engineering skills, such as examining compiled binaries, network traffic or API calls, or working with browser extension internals.
- Integration work in fintech, payments, logistics, healthcare or automotive software.
Benefits
Compensation and benefits
- Base salary: $175K to $210K
- Equity
- Health insurance coverage
Location and work model
