Summary

Job Summary

The Senior Software Engineer is responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining scalable, secure, and high-performing software systems. This role works cross-functionally with Product, Architecture, and Engineering teams to deliver business value through high-quality, reliable software.

This is a hands-on role focused on building production-ready solutions, while contributing to technical direction, mentoring engineers, and leveraging modern tools-including AI and spec-driven development-to improve engineering productivity and outcomes.

Key Responsibilities:

Software Development & Design

  • Design, develop, test, and deploy software across the full technology stack
  • Translate business and functional requirements into clear, well-defined technical specifications
  • Ensure systems are scalable, resilient, maintainable, and secure
  • Apply modern engineering standards and best practices


Delivery & Execution

  • Break down specs and features into clear, actionable, and estimable tasks
  • Deliver incremental value using Agile methodologies
  • Own end-to-end delivery of features or services
  • Align development with architectural standards and system design


Quality & Reliability

  • Write and maintain automated unit, integration, and end-to-end tests
  • Ensure code quality, performance, and adherence to specifications
  • Troubleshoot and resolve production issues
  • Identify risks, dependencies, and deviations early


AI-Transformed Engineering

  • Leverage AI-assisted tools (e.g., Copilot, LLM-based tools) to improve productivity and code quality
  • Use AI for code generation, test creation, debugging, and documentation
  • Validate and refine AI-generated outputs for correctness, security, and maintainability
  • Contribute to team practices around AI usage and prompt engineering


Spec-Driven Development

  • Drive spec-driven development, where features are defined through clear, structured specifications before implementation
  • Create and refine technical specs (APIs, contracts, workflows, data models) that serve as the source of truth for development
  • Use specifications to enable alignment across engineering, product, and QA
  • Leverage specs to support automation, testing, and AI-assisted development workflows
  • Ensure implementations are traceable back to specifications and meet defined acceptance criteria


Collaboration

  • Partner with Product, QA, and Architecture teams to deliver solutions
  • Participate in design discussions and technical decision-making
  • Communicate progress, trade-offs, and blockers clearly


Technical Leadership & Growth

  • Contribute to coding standards and engineering best practices
  • Mentor junior engineers through code reviews and guidance
  • Continuously learn and adopt new technologies, including AI-driven techniques


Spec-Driven + AI Requirements

  • Experience working in spec-driven or contract-first development environments
  • Ability to define clear technical specifications (e.g., API contracts, schemas, workflows)
  • Experience using AI-assisted development tools effectively
  • Ability to validate, refine, and safely adopt AI-generated outputs
  • Understanding of responsible AI usage in software development


Required Qualifications

  • Applicants must currently be authorized to work in the United States for any employer without current or future sponsorship. No OPT, CPT, STEM/OPT or visa sponsorship now or in future.
  • Bachelor's degree Computer Science or a related discipline and 4+ years of experience in a related field, OR master's degree and 2+ years of experience, OR Ph.D. and up to 1 year of experience, OR 18+ years of directly relevant experience.
  • Strong proficiency in at least one programming language (e.g., Java, Python, .NET)
  • Experience with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS) and distributed systems
  • Solid understanding of system design, APIs, and data models
  • Experience with automated testing and CI/CD practices
  • In Office 2 days a week required.


Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience building large-scale or mission-critical systems
  • Familiarity with microservices and event-driven architectures
  • Experience integrating AI capabilities into applications (e.g., LLM APIs, search, recommendations)
  • Experience improving engineering workflows through automation or AI
  • Strong debugging and performance tuning skills
