Role Overview As a Senior Software Engineer, you will design, build, and own significant components of our SaaS platform. You will take features from ambiguous requirements through design, implementation, testing, and production operation. You will make sound technical decisions within your area, contribute to architecture discussions, and mentor engineers around you.

Technical Contribution & Design Translate ambiguous requirements into well-structured technical designs. Participate in and contribute to design reviews and architecture discussions. Make pragmatic technical decisions and clearly document trade-offs. Identify technical risks early and propose practical solutions. Drive adoption of reusable components, shared services, and engineering best practices.

Quality & Operational Excellence Uphold high standards for design, code quality, testing, and operational readiness. Write and review unit, integration, and automated tests. Improve observability through monitoring, logging, and alerting for your services. Participate actively in code reviews and provide constructive feedback.

Collaboration & Mentorship Mentor and support junior engineers through pairing and code reviews. Collaborate closely with product, design, QA, and DevOps teams. Contribute to a culture of ownership, learning, and engineering excellence.

AI-Enabled Engineering Use modern AI tools to improve development speed, quality, and productivity. Apply AI-assisted development practices while maintaining strong engineering standards, security, and code quality. Explore practical opportunities to accelerate engineering outcomes.

Required Qualifications Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science or a related discipline. 5–8 years of software engineering experience building production-grade applications. Strong experience building and operating cloud-native SaaS or web applications. Solid understanding of software design, distributed systems, and modern engineering practices.
