As a Senior Software Developer, you operate as a technical leader within your team and across the broader engineering organization. You shape architecture and design, raise the bar on engineering quality, mentor other developers, and partner closely with cross-functional stakeholders to translate technical decisions into business value. You are equally comfortable guiding agentic-AI tools to deliver code, reviewing designs, and influencing how the platform evolves. 

What you will do:

    • Create architecture, prototypes, and design proposals that deliver near-term business value while aligning with the future-state product and platform vision. 

    • Influence technical direction through architecture reviews, RFCs, design discussions, and hands-on collaboration. 

    • Partner with senior developers, architects, and tech leads to define and execute the product/platform architecture roadmap. 

    • Balance delivery speed, quality, maintainability, and long-term platform health when making technical decisions. 

    • Break down large initiatives into parallelizable chunks of work that deliver incremental business value. 

    • Champion proposals through all phases of the SDLC, from design through production implementation. 

    • Contribute to improving the core product build, CI/CD pipelines, and overall SDLC. 

    • Troubleshoot and eliminate root causes of persistent production issues; drive reliability, observability, monitoring, and incident response. 

    • Keep technical documentation current and create new artifacts as needed. 

    • Facilitate design discussions within and across teams. 

    • Represent the team in technical discussions with Tech Leads, Operations, Product/UX, Security, Domain SMEs, and external stakeholders. 

    • Act as a trusted technical leader, helping teams succeed through collaboration, influence, and shared ownership. 

    • Mentor other developers through design reviews, joint agentic-AI sessions, and feedback on skills, prompts, and other agent inputs; contribute to raising overall engineering maturity. 

    • Share knowledge of new technologies and industry best practices. 

    • Evaluate emerging technologies, frameworks, and cloud capabilities that could benefit the platform. 

    AI-Augmented Development Expectations 

    • Use AI-assisted development tools — inline completion, conversational assistants, and agentic workflows — as a standard part of your daily workflow.  

    • Critically evaluate and take ownership of all AI-generated output before it ships — verify correctness, security, and alignment with architecture and team standards.  

    • Identify opportunities for agentic automation within your team, and lead the rollout of new AI-assisted workflows and tooling.  

    • Mentor other developers on effective, responsible use of AI-assisted development tools.  

    • Help establish team-level practices and guardrails for using AI tools safely and effectively.  

    • Build and refine feedback loops that improve the team's collective use of AI tooling over time. 

    Developer Platform Focus 

    • Define and evolve the architecture of the internal developer platform, including monorepo structure, build systems, and CI/CD pipelines. 

    • Influence technical direction for platform tooling through design reviews, RFCs, and hands-on collaboration. 

    • Partner with engineering teams to improve developer experience and reduce friction across the SDLC. 

    • Mentor engineers on monorepo management and CI/CD best practices. 

What you wll bring:

    • Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience; 8+ years of professional software development experience with demonstrated impact beyond a single team. 

    • 8+ years of professional experience, with deep expertise in TypeScript, Node.js, and Nx monorepo architecture at scale. 

    • Proven experience designing and operating CI/CD systems (GitHub Actions or equivalent) for multiple teams. 

    • Proven experience designing and operating distributed, cloud-native, SaaS/multi-tenant platforms at scale, ideally on AWS. 

    • Strong software fundamentals: OOP, design patterns, SOLID principles, and a track record of advocating for code quality. 

    • Experience with agentic-AI software development practices. 

    • Experience designing and consuming well-designed HTTP APIs (REST, GraphQL, or similar). 

    • Experience mentoring developers and influencing architectural decisions across teams. 

    • Strong written and verbal communication skills; comfortable operating in fast-moving environments with ambiguity and evolving requirements. 

    • Strong initiative to improve processes, tools, methodologies, and product quality.  

    • Experience with AWS. 

    • Familiarity with containerization technologies, including Docker and Kubernetes.
