Senior API Developer

🚨 HIRING: Senior API Developer | Cloud Migration & Modernization 🚨
📍 Toronto, ON (Hybrid) | Contract
💰 Pay Rate: $68-70/hr. Incop + HST

Not every API role gives you the opportunity to modernize enterprise applications and lead cloud transformation initiatives.
This opportunity is for someone who enjoys solving complex engineering challenges, migrating legacy environments, and building scalable cloud-native solutions.
What you’ll be doing:
🔹 Lead migration of Azure / PCF applications into Atlas (Google Cloud Environment)
🔹 Analyze existing architectures and identify migration risks, dependencies, and required changes
🔹 Refactor APIs, backend services, and UI components for scalability and cloud-native readiness
🔹 Work closely with Solution Architects, DevOps, and platform teams on modernization strategies
🔹 Update CI/CD pipelines, deployment scripts, and cloud configurations
🔹 Ensure resiliency, security, monitoring, logging, and compliance standards are met post-migration
🔹 Support REST APIs, Microservices, API Gateways, and cloud integrations
🔹 Troubleshoot migration issues, performance bottlenecks, and production incidents
🔹 Mentor developers and contribute to architectural discussions
✅ Must Have:
• 8+ years as an API Developer
• Strong hands-on experience with REST APIs, Microservices & API Gateways
• Recent GCP / Google Kubernetes experience (3+ years)
• Exposure to Azure or PCF environments
• Strong debugging & performance optimization skills
• Experience working within Agile enterprise environments
⭐ Nice to Have:
• Cloud migration / modernization project experience
• Dynatrace or Splunk exposure
• Banking / Top 5 Canadian Bank experience
The ideal candidate is not just maintaining APIs — they’ve recently been hands-on building, modernizing, and migrating applications across cloud environments.
If you enjoy cloud transformation, modernization initiatives, and enterprise-scale engineering challenges, I’d like to connect.
