Job Description: We are seeking an experienced Sr. Developer, APIs to design, build, and maintain the API platform that powers YPO's member ecosystem, Chapter operations, and Agentic AI platform. You will write production-quality code and own the technical implementation of APIs that sit at the core of YPO's digital experience.

You will partner closely with Product, Data Architecture, IT, and Security to deliver scalable, semantic API solutions that meet rigorous technical, privacy, and governance standards. You will also serve as a key technical collaborator for internal engineering teams and integration partners - ensuring that every API surface is performant, well-documented, and safe to consume.

This role requires deep backend engineering expertise, a strong sense of API product quality, and the ability to translate complex integration requirements into robust, maintainable implementations that stand up at scale - within an event-driven, domain-aligned, serverless-first cloud architecture.

Your API Portfolio

You will own the engineering implementation of three core API domains:

Members API
Stable, semantic endpoints exposing member profile, identity, peer discovery, and graph relationships. The foundation of member experience.

Chapters API
APIs powering chapter management, forum operations, event discovery, and role-based data access across YPO's global regional structure.

Agentic Ecosystem APIs
Governed API contracts for AI agents (Peer Discovery, Event Discovery) built on OpenAI + RAG and Google Gemini. Agents consume only approved APIs. Agent reasoning must always be surfaceable.
