Razer is also a great place to work, providing you the unique, gamer-centric #LifeAtRazer experience that will put you in an accelerated growth, both personally and professionally.

Job Responsibilities :

We’re hiring a Senior Software Engineer who believes AI can elevate software craftsmanship — not replace it.
Your focus will be improving the stability, maintainability, and performance of our systems, while using modern AI-assisted tools to deliver higher-quality code, faster.
You’ll work on the backbone of our products: cleaning up legacy logic, improving observability, and building confidence into every deployment. You’ll also help define how we use AI responsibly in our engineering workflow — from refactoring to code review to release automation.

What You’ll Do

  • Refactor, simplify, and optimize backend code to improve reliability, readability, and performance.

  • Use AI-assisted tools (like GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, or SonarQube) to support coding, testing, and review processes.

  • Introduce AI-driven quality checks in CI/CD — from static analysis to test generation and release validation.

  • Improve system observability with structured logging, clearer metrics, and better error handling.

  • Strengthen code review practices, using AI to flag potential issues early.

  • Collaborate with engineers, SREs, and DevOps to align software reliability with platform stability.

  • Mentor teammates on maintainable code design and the effective use of AI in day-to-day engineering work.

What You Bring

  • You must be familiar with industry standard practices around system architecture.

  • Strict understanding in secure coding practice, performant and highly maintainable code bases.

  • Strong experience in debugging, performance tuning, and codebase refactoring.

  • Solid skills in at least one backend language (PHP or Node.js).

  • Familiar with cloud-native environments, CI/CD pipelines, and containerization.

  • Familiarity working with programming language frameworks and terminal-based interface (Linux) is a plus.

  • Practical knowledge of AI development tools and how to apply them for automation and quality assurance.

  • Clear communication, structured problem-solving, and a proactive, detail-oriented mindset.

Why This Role Matters

Our goal isn’t just to build more features — it’s to make our systems smarter, safer, and easier to maintain. You’ll play a key role in defining what reliable, AI-augmented engineering looks like in production: code that’s efficient, observable, and ready to evolve. Your work will help the entire team move faster without compromising stability.
