Responsibilities

The main responsibilities of this position are to design, develop, and evaluate software programs in concert with a team of peers and a technical lead. You will be engaged in the software development cycle both from a software programming stage, to deployment, testing, and working with Product and User Design requirements. Your ability to convert product requirements (whether formally written or not) into independent units of work is one of your key strengths.

As an Sr. SE, you will design and deploy components and features as part of a larger product. You’ll own a significant portion of software components and understand how they interact with each other. You’ll be responsible for creating the solution design for features where the general feature architecture is loosely defined. You will come up with work estimates and break down that work into smaller components.

Your responsibilities will also cover mentoring other more junior developers when it comes to the software lifecycle. As Sr. SE, your strengths lie in the ability to solve difficult software problems, create logical and maintainable solutions, drive best practices in the team and help with automation of manual tasks. You must be able to balance feature requirements by creating a minimal amount of tech debt.
