As Lumen modernizes and expands its product portfolio, migrates systems to the cloud, and innovates for our customers - Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are consistently framed as critical enablers of digital transformation, automation, and customer experience. Connectivity to Lumen APIs requires a highly available, fault tolerant and performant API Gateway architecture with robust security controls, strong monitoring and alerting capabilities, and proactive support. The existing API Gateway architecture is undergoing a significant transformation, migrating API traffic from an on-premise implementation to a robust multi-cloud architecture. API-First is a core competency and requirement for all APIs at Lumen, requiring more attention to API standards, style guides and governance for a consistent digital experience. As a Senior Lead Software Developer in this position, you will be responsible for implementing and further enhancing Lumen's API strategy, accelerating the delivery of Lumen's new gateway infrastructure, driving automation, and evangelizing API-FIRST standards, styles and governance controls. You will be involved in the design, development, test and deployment of both front-end portal-oriented user interfaces and back-end API web services, as well as the management of an API Gateway platform that supports Lumen's API Enablement strategies. You will be part of a multi-national Agile Development Team responsible for translating business and architectural requirements into software design and delivery that enable end customers, business partners and internal employees to easily manage and utilize Lumen's API digital ecosystem. As a full-stack developer with cloud and DevSecOps experience, your skills will enable Lumen to accelerate and grow its API Platform and Transformation objectives. The Main Responsibilities
