Senior Backend Engineer at Deland, Gibson Insurance Associates in Austin, TX

Job description

• Build the backend services, APIs and orchestration layer behind the Sales Command Center. The role sits between the web/iOS experiences and Dynamics 365, creating reusable services that combine CRM information with data and workflows from other enterprise platforms.

• * Implement REST APIs, asynchronous workflows and event-driven integration patterns.

• * Implement authentication, authorization, idempotency, retries, timeouts, circuit breakers, rate limits, caching and canonical error handling.
• * Develop read models and caching patterns where high-volume requests should not directly hit Dynamics.
• * Use Azure API Management, Service Bus / Event Grid, Key Vault and Azure Monitor / Application Insights.
• * Write unit, integration and contract tests and contribute to CI/CD quality gates.
• * Troubleshoot production and integration issues across UI, APIs, backend services and Dynamics.
