Staff Software Engineer

A Staff Software  egnineer will interact with multiple stakeholders in the organization to understand requirements, viable technologies and strategic direction when making decisions regarding software. Their work includes determining multiple design alternatives, assessing each based on constraints (such as cost, schedule, space, power, safety, usability, reliability, maintainability, availability, and so on), and selecting the most suitable options for further refinement. The output sets the core properties of the system, and those that are hardest to change later. Software Architects document and outline the overall system and interface with the users and stakeholders. Very large, highly complex systems may include multiple architects, in which case the architects work together to integrate their subsystems. A Software Architect works closely with Product Management and Development leadership in overarching designs affecting the entire software portfolio. A Software Architect will also work closely with other supporting functions such as Marketing, Support, and Services.

• Interfacing with company leaders and Product Management to determine direction and evolving technology needs.

• Be a champion for department initiatives and values. Ensuring all actions promote the company mission statement.

• Mentor and support others as needed to cultivate and sustain industry leading technical expertise and professionalism.

• Working through others to identify the highest level of system requirements, based on the user's needs and other constraints. Ensuring that this set of high level requirements is consistent, complete, correct, and operationally defined.

• Participate in cost–benefit analyses to determine whether requirements are best met by manual, software, or hardware functions; making maximum use of commercial off-the-shelf, appropriately licensed free or open source software or already developed components.

• Partitioning large systems into (successive layers of) subsystems and components each of which can be handled by a single engineer or team of engineers or subordinate architect.

• Interface with the Tech Leads, DevOps and IT team members, so that any problems arising during design or implementation can be resolved in accordance with the fundamental design concepts, management and user needs and constraints.

• Ensuring that a maximally robust design is developed.

• Work with IT on a variety of activities including; defining requirements; assessing server, storage and infrastructure sizing; analyzing hardware sizing to meet application requirements; and designing load balancing and clustering solutions according to architecture standards.
• Generating documentation for design, implementation and/or consumption of systems. Documentation such as sketches, models, an early user guide, technical specifications, technical requirements and prototypes to keep the managers, users and the engineers constantly up to date and in agreement on the system to be provided as it is evolving.

• Ensuring that all architectural products and products with architectural input are maintained in the most current state and never allowed to become obsolete. While adhering to department architecture guidelines.

• Provides technical guidance for system design, design implementation and integration engineering activities. Ensures conceptual integrity of system design.

• Communicates in a professional manner when interacting with coworkers and external customers. Ability to deliver clear messages, presenting with impact and adjusting messages to the audience. Creates clear written communication

• Provides technical input to RFP/RFQ responses.

• Participates in internal and external technical reviews, as required.

• Contributes to code base as needed on core modules or sensitive functional areas.
• Follows the architecture governance process and understands concepts around it.
