Automation Developer II

Constructconnect

The Role

Overview

Design and build scalable GCP serverless backend services and APIs.

Key Responsibilities

  • security governance
  • api development
  • serverless backend
  • workflow automation
  • observability
  • stakeholder engagement

Tasks

-Champion security and governance (IAM, Secret Manager, VPC/SVPC, least-privilege patterns, data retention). -Document code, architectures, runbooks, and reusable components in our internal knowledge base. -Own the full delivery lifecycle: requirements, solution design, development, testing, deployment, observability, and iterative optimization. -Mentor Level I developers via code reviews, pairing, and reusable patterns; contribute to internal guides and templates. -Build and integrate APIs and microservices that enable seamless data exchange across ConstructConnect’s platforms (REST; authentication, rate limiting, pagination, and versioning). -Design and implement backend and serverless services—primarily on Google Cloud Platform (GCP)—to improve operational efficiency and data accuracy. Typical components include Cloud Run/Cloud Functions, Pub/Sub, Cloud Scheduler, Cloud Storage, Firestore/Datastore, and BigQuery. -Develop event-driven and batch workflows (Pub/Sub, Cloud Tasks, Cloud Workflows), plus ad-hoc scripting for data processing, migrations, and operational tooling. -Team members are expected to maintain a dedicated and ergonomically appropriate remote workspace. -Partner with stakeholders to identify high-impact opportunities, define ROI, and prioritize work that delivers measurable results. -Leverage AI/ML where appropriate (e.g., LLM-enabled services, lightweight NLP pipelines) to enhance decision-making and process intelligence. -Instrument, monitor, and troubleshoot services using Cloud Logging, Cloud Monitoring, Error Reporting, and tracing to ensure reliability and performance.

Requirements

  • gcp
  • terraform
  • ci/cd
  • python
  • bigquery
  • observability

What You Bring

-Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a focus on scalability, reliability, and maintainability. -Hands-on experience with GCP serverless services (Cloud Run or Cloud Functions) and eventing (Pub/Sub, Cloud Scheduler, Cloud Tasks). -Ability to lead smaller projects or own technical workstreams within larger initiatives. -Experience designing and integrating RESTful APIs for system interoperability. -Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) and CI/CD workflows (Cloud Build, GitLab CI). -Excellent communication and collaboration skills with cross-functional teams. -Experience building modular, reusable components/libraries and adopting clean architecture. -Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Engineering, or related field OR 3–5 years of professional experience delivering backend/serverless solutions. -Depth with GCP (IAM, VPC, Secret Manager, Cloud Build, Artifact Registry) and cloud-native design patterns. -Knowledge of security and compliance best practices for APIs, data, and access management. -Familiarity with deploying AI/ML integrations (LLMs, basic NLP, or model inference endpoints) within backend workflows. -Proficiency in Python or another general-purpose language (e.g., Java or Node.js) with a strong understanding of data structures, modular design, testing, and package management. -Experience with ETL/data pipelines (BigQuery, Dataflow/Beam or equivalent), workflow orchestration, and performance optimization. -The physical activities of this position include frequent sitting, telephone communication, and working on a computer for extended periods. Visual acuity is required to perform activities close to the eyes. -Observability experience (structured logging, metrics, traces, SLOs/error budgets). -All team members must reside and perform their work within the United States. -Proficiency with SQL and data modeling; experience with BigQuery performance tuning.

Benefits

-Team members who live within commuting distance of one of our office locations (Greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky or Atlanta, Georgia) are expected to work in a hybrid capacity, with regular in-office presence every Tuesday and Wednesday each week.
