Experience
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related technical field; or equivalent related professional experience.
- 2+ years of relevant professional software engineering experience.
Technical & Functional Skills
- Professional experience developing and maintaining production software as part of a collaborative engineering team.
- Proficiency in at least one modern programming language and its ecosystem, such as Java, Kotlin, TypeScript, Python, or similar.
- Understanding of core software engineering fundamentals, including data structures, algorithms, modular design, testing, debugging, and version control.
- Experience contributing to services or components in a cloud-based environment, with exposure to APIs, data modeling, deployment, and production support.
- Ability to write clear, maintainable code and explain implementation decisions.
- Ability to collaborate with teammates and cross-functional partners, ask clarifying questions, receive feedback, and communicate status and risks.
- Practical experience using approved AI-assisted development tools, with examples of validating and improving generated code, tests, documentation, or debugging output.
What you’ll do
- Design, develop, test, deploy, and support well-scoped features, fixes, and improvements within services or components owned by the team.
- Translate product and technical requirements into maintainable code, clear APIs, data changes, tests, and operational checks.
- Contribute to component-level and service-level design discussions, identifying dependencies, risks, failure modes, and reasonable trade-offs with support from more senior engineers when needed.
- Apply sound software engineering fundamentals, including modular design, data structures, appropriate design patterns, secure coding, and clear naming and documentation.
- Build reliable automated tests, including unit and integration tests, and improve test coverage where it reduces risk or accelerates delivery.
- Instrument changes with useful logs, metrics, traces, and alerts; use observability tools to validate behavior and investigate issues.
- Participate in on-call or support rotations appropriate to the team, helping diagnose and resolve incidents with support from more experienced engineers and following established service-level expectations.

- Explain implementation choices clearly, surface blockers early, incorporate feedback, and provide reliable status updates.
- Use AI-assisted development tools as a co-pilot across the software development lifecycle, including requirements clarification, design exploration, code generation, test generation, documentation, and debugging.
- Take full responsibility for understanding, reviewing, testing, securing, and hardening AI-assisted output before it is merged or deployed. Do not expose confidential, personal, or sensitive information to tools that are not approved for that data.
- Identify localized technical debt, reliability gaps, or inefficient development practices and propose practical improvements based on evidence.
- Share knowledge through code reviews, pairing, design discussions, documentation, demos, and participation in engineering communities of practice.
