Full description
We are looking for a highly skilled Senior Software Engineer with 5-10 years of experience in JavaScript or Java development, cloud-native technologies, and modern software architecture. The role involves hands-on coding, designing scalable solutions, leveraging AI-driven development practices, and working with AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, and automated testing frameworks. The ideal candidate will collaborate with cross-functional teams, drive engineering best practices, contribute to architectural decisions, and ensure the delivery of secure, reliable, and high-quality software solutions.
The core responsibilities for the job include the following:
Software Development and Technical Contribution:
- Write, review, and own production-quality code as an active contributor to the team's codebase; this is a technical, hands-on role.
- Champion the use of AI-first software delivery approaches, leveraging AI tools and frameworks to enhance development efficiency, automate repetitive tasks, and improve decision-making.
- Advocate for and implement modern engineering practices, such as Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) and Infrastructure as Code (IaC).
- Contribute to architectural decisions at the team and system level, balancing pragmatism with long-term maintainability.
Delivery and Collaboration:
- Help break down complex technical work into well-scoped, deliverable increments.
- Contribute as a strong technical contributor within the team, supporting technical discussions and decisions, and collaborate with cross-functional teams, including QAs, product owners, architects, designers, and program management, to clarify requirements, surface constraints, and align technical solutions with business goals.
- Work closely with the Architecture Advice Forum through Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) to contribute to cross-team technical strategy, championing evolutionary architecture principles.
- Remove technical blockers and escalate risks early to protect team delivery commitments.
- Balance delivery pace with technical health, advocating for investment in test coverage, refactoring, and debt reduction.
Quality and Engineering Excellence:
- Champion test-driven development (TDD), behavior-driven development (BDD), and automated testing at all levels.
- Collaborate with platform teams to establish CI/CD pipelines and automate deployment processes.
- Contribute to the design and implementation of Infrastructure as Code using tools like Terraform to automate infrastructure provisioning and management.
- Ensure robust monitoring, logging, and alerting systems are in place to maintain system reliability and performance.
- Promote security-by-design and advocate for responsible handling of data and infrastructure.
