Build and operate cloud-native, distributed backend services, storage, indexing, and query systems. Translate ambiguous problems into scalable implementations, work across backend, data layer, and cloud infrastructure, collaborate in agile teams, and ship iterative software releases.
Overview
Inabia is seeking a Full Stack Software Development Engineer for a 12-month onsite contract engagement in Redmond, WA. This is a hands-on build role focused on distributed, cloud-native systems spanning backend services, data systems, and cloud infrastructure. The ideal candidate takes ownership of ambiguous problems and delivers concrete, scalable technical solutions in a fast-moving, agile environment.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and ship scalable, fault-tolerant backend services and APIs
- Build and maintain distributed storage, indexing, and query systems optimized for reliability, cost, and performance
- Take loosely-defined, ambiguous problems and translate them into concrete technical solutions with clear implementation plans
- Work across the full stack — backend, data layer, and cloud infrastructure — as the work demands
- Collaborate with a cross-functional engineering team through sprint planning, code reviews, and retrospectives
- Ship working software on short, iterative development cycles
Key Qualifications
- US Citizen or Green Card holder; no visa sponsorship available (C2C, H-1B transfer, OPT/CPT, TN, and third-party visa arrangements not accepted)
- 4+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
- Proficiency in at least one of: Java, Python, Go, or SQL
- Hands-on, production experience with AWS cloud infrastructure (EC2, Lambda, ECS/EKS, RDS, S3, DynamoDB, CloudFormation)
- Ability to work onsite in Redmond, WA, 5 days per week for the full 12-month contract duration
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience designing and operating distributed, multi-tiered systems with relational and/or NoSQL databases at scale
- Exposure to optimization techniques such as linear or nonlinear programming
- Strong ability to communicate technical tradeoffs clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
- Comfortable operating with ambiguity — defining solutions from broadly-scoped requirements rather than executing detailed specifications
