About the role
Every donation that moves through the GiveCampus platform passes through the Online Giving team's code.

- System design experience, with a focus on solutions that can be implemented incrementally while keeping an eye on scale and resilience
- Strong SQL database skills: schema design, query optimization, and a real concern for data integrity
- API design and integration experience with RESTful services
- A test-driven mindset: unit, integration, and end-to-end testing as part of how you build
