About the role:

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will independently design, develop, and deliver scalable software features and solutions based on core product requirements. You will work across the full stack to build and maintain APIs, user interfaces, and backend services using modern frameworks and cloud-native infrastructure.

This role involves leveraging AI-assisted coding tools to streamline development tasks such as drafting boilerplate code, refactoring legacy systems, and generating tests—while ensuring all generated code strictly adheres to enterprise security and performance standards. Beyond hands-on development, you will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, champion DevOps and continuous integration best practices, mentor junior engineers, and proactively address technical debt to continuously improve the platform.

Responsibilities

Design, develop, and deliver new features and solutions independently based on product requirements.
Develop and maintain scalable APIs, client interfaces, and backend services.
Investigate, troubleshoot, and resolve complex technical issues while continuously improving application quality and maintainability.
Utilize Claude Code, Gemini, and Rovo to draft boilerplate, refactor legacy systems, generate test coverage, and troubleshoot bugs.
Work closely with DevOps practices to ensure smooth deployments across environments, leveraging CI/CD pipelines and automation.
Ensure AI-generated code meets enterprise security standards, performance benchmarks, and best practices before merging.
Partner closely with Product Managers, Designers, QA Engineers, and other stakeholders to validate requirements and ensure successful delivery.
Mentor junior engineers through code reviews, technical guidance, and knowledge-sharing activities.
Promote engineering best practices, including automated testing, code quality standards, observability, and secure software development.
Proactively identify technical debt, propose improvements, and contribute to the continuous evolution of the platform.
