Role Overview

The Software Engineer independently delivers well-engineered code using established best practices, with the ability and willingness to pick up new languages, frameworks, and tools as the team's needs evolve. This is a foundational hands-on engineering role — building features, writing tests, managing version control, contributing to cloud/DevOps tasks with guidance, and using AI-assisted tools responsibly to support day-to-day development work.

Key Responsibilities

Technical Work

  • Apply OOP/SOLID principles, design patterns, and common data structures & algorithms with minimal supervision.
  • Apply basic concurrency/parallel programming concepts under supervision, and foundational secure programming concepts.
  • Learn new languages, libraries, and frameworks as needed; build a good understanding of the SaaS/PaaS solutions the team relies on.
  • Use foundational design patterns and reference architectures, seeking senior support as needed; interpret functional and non-functional requirements to complete tasks with minimal rework.
  • Use Sysco-approved AI coding assistants for code generation, debugging, and refactoring, always validating AI-generated output before committing; understand foundational AI integration patterns and contribute to related implementations.

Delivery, Quality & Operations

  • Manage code branches and versioned components comfortably; operate independently within the team's chosen project management methodology.
  • Implement code quality best practices and adjust existing code to meet standards without breaking functionality; write effective unit tests and understand the goals of integration and end-to-end testing.
  • Conduct root cause analysis and resolve straightforward production issues independently; navigate approved monitoring tools (e.g., DataDog, AWS CloudWatch) to monitor applications, including AI-integrated components.
  • Contribute to foundational DevOps tasks (CI/CD, configuration/secret management, infrastructure) and cloud implementations/PoCs (AWS/GCP/Azure) with guidance; stay aware of approved vulnerability detection tooling and cloud AI service usage guidelines.
  • Use AI tools to assist in writing tests and flagging code quality issues, validating AI-generated output for correctness and coverage.

People & Stakeholder Management

  • Communicate clearly and constructively, verbally and in writing; actively participate in project meetings and sprint ceremonies.
  • Estimate assigned tasks accurately and participate in team-level estimation/planning; stay aware of what teammates are working on and step up to support when advised by seniors.
  • Actively contribute to brainstorming sessions and research answers to technical questions independently; stay current on industry and AI trends through discussions and forums.
  • Use AI assistance responsibly for written communication and documentation; proactively explore how AI tools can improve personal productivity and share learnings with the team.

Requirements

Technical Skills

  • Solid grounding in OOP/SOLID principles, design patterns, and data structures & algorithms.
  • Working knowledge of foundational secure programming and data privacy concepts.
  • Comfortable with version control, branching strategies, and CI/CD basics.
  • Familiarity with at least one cloud platform (AWS/GCP/Azure) and willingness to contribute to cloud/DevOps tasks with guidance.
  • Experience using AI coding assistants for development tasks, with the judgment to validate AI-generated output before use.

Leadership & Soft Skills

  • Strong verbal and written communication; comfortable participating actively in agile ceremonies.
  • Reliable task estimation and self-management within a defined project methodology.
  • A proactive, independent learning mindset with willingness to research and self-improve.

Experience & Education

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
  • More than one year of professional software engineering experience.

Benefits:

  • Performance-based annual bonus
  • Performance rewards and recognition
  • Agile Benefits - special allowances for Health, Wellness & Academic purposes
  • Paid birthday leave
  • Team engagement allowance
  • Comprehensive Health & Life Insurance Cover - extendable to parents and in-laws
  • Hybrid work arrangement

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
