Software Guidance & Assistance, Inc., (SGA), is searching for a
Sr. Software Engineer for a
contract assignment with one of our premier
SaaS clients in San Jose, CA. This is a fully onsite role.
We are hiring a Senior Software Engineer to build and own automation that scales our support experience-turning Slack/office-hours requests into high-quality, actionable tickets and faster resolutions. You will be a hands-on builder who ships production systems end-to-end and partners closely with stakeholders to drive adoption and measurable outcomes.
Responsibilities :
- Build and maintain support automation services and integrations (e.g., Slack ? Jira intake, enrichment, routing, lifecycle sync).
- Implement agentic workflows to automate triage, context collection, summarization, and next-step recommendations using tool-calling/orchestration frameworks.
- Deliver production-grade systems: APIs, event-driven processing, retries/idempotency, rate limiting, and strong error handling.
- Add and maintain observability for automation health (logs/metrics/dashboards/alerts) and improve reliability over time.
- Communicate clearly with users and partner teams via docs, demos, and concise status updates; iterate quickly based on feedback.
Required Skills :
- Strong hands-on coding in Java, Python, or Go; experience shipping production services/integrations.
- Strong API development experience (designing and building REST/gRPC services, versioning, authn/authz, documentation, and backwards compatibility).
- Good understanding of system architecture (service boundaries, data flows, scalability, resilience, and operational tradeoffs).
- Experience (or strong practical interest) in agentic tools/frameworks (LangGraph,
- Langchain, orchestration, RAG patterns, evaluation/guardrails) and ability to apply them pragmatically.
- Solid engineering fundamentals: distributed systems basics, debugging, operational readiness, and building maintainable code.
- Strong communication skills-able to explain technical concepts, write clear docs, and collaborate across teams.
- Proactive, go-getter mindset-takes ownership, drives tasks to completion, and continuously improves processes.
