Job Summary

Optimum is a leading provider of Mobile, Broadband (DOCSIS, Fiber) and Video services in the United States. The Product Development organization is responsible for the technology enablement and development of these technologies for our customers along with the tools used by our teams to support them.

Build and extend capabilities across Optimum's internal omni-channel API platform — a Go gRPC backend deployed across GCP, AWS, and private cloud environments, serving Optimum's call-center, sales, and customer-support operations. You will own API and service delivery across multi-step workflows, with coordination across backend systems and presentation-layer consumers where appropriate.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement API capabilities using Go, gRPC, and Protocol Buffers that support business workflows across customer, order, billing, catalog, mobile, and related domains
• Develop and evolve service endpoints, orchestration logic, and integration layers across multiple backend and legacy systems
• Integrate with internal and external systems using established architectural patterns, including SOAP, GraphQL, and enterprise adapter approaches where applicable
• Translate business requirements into Protocol Buffer contracts, Google AIP-aligned API designs, and reliable service implementations
• Expose platform APIs to internal consumer applications through well-defined service and gateway interfaces
• Address error handling, caching, and data consistency concerns across distributed service interactions involving Cloud Spanner, Redis, and related data stores
• Build and maintain automated tests using Go test frameworks to validate service behavior, integration paths, and contract expectations
• Support user-facing feature delivery through stable API contracts and collaboration with presentation-layer engineering teams
