SUMMARY  

The Senior Software Developer designs, builds, and supports Kele's business and e-commerce platforms using .NET Core and Angular. This is not a heads-down coding role: the person in this seat partners with stakeholders to shape requirements, challenges assumptions, and proposes sound technical alternatives. The role works across a modern, integration-heavy environment connecting e-commerce, ERP, CRM, and data systems, and is expected to use approved AI-assisted development tools to work faster and better.

• Own code, tests, debugging, documentation, and ongoing maintenance for customer-facing and internal applications.
• Build and maintain API integrations connecting core business systems, including ERP, CRM, and data platforms.
• Use approved AI-assisted development tools to improve coding efficiency, testing, and delivery speed.
• Ensure system architecture integrates cleanly with marketing platforms, ERP, WMS, CRM, and content management systems.
• Evaluate design feasibility, optimize code for performance, and design for scalability.
• Mentor other developers and provide technical guidance within the team.
• Communicate project status, risks, and opportunities clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Participate in Agile delivery using Jira and Confluence.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field, or equivalent hands-on experience.

• Experience with Microsoft IIS, SQL Server / Transact-SQL, and Git-based workflows.
