What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Back End Engineer position at TEKsystems?
Description
This company operates 50K EV chargers across ~200 delivery stations today, scaling to 100K
by 2028. MCC-Field is the next-generation field application, serving site operations, third-party contractors, and preventive maintenance teams across
the company's charging network. Field technicians use it to audit, cycle-count, replace, and troubleshoot
chargers under real-world constraints: intermittent connectivity in parking garages, gloved-hand
device use, and shift-based operational patterns.
As Software Development Engineer, you will own the technical direction of MCC-Field from R0
hardening before year end through R3 feature delivery (2028). You will lead the platform's
evolution from a Progressive Web App (PWA) with offline-first persistence, backed by AWS serverless
infrastructure (Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, S3, Cognito). You will partner with other development engineers, drive R1 API integrations with partner teams.
You will build with production-grade rigor: full dependency injection, property-based testing,
offline sync with bounded retry and conflict detection, and observability via CloudWatch. This
is an IC role with clear technical leadership scope.
