About the Role
The Senior Software Development Engineer role involves application development, platform engineering, and internal tooling. This position owns complex problems that span product code and delivery infrastructure, including designing backend services and APIs, defining CI/CD and cloud platform strategy, building internal developer tooling, and setting engineering standards. The role leverages AI tooling for efficiency and mentors other engineers.
Responsibilities
- Design and develop EPM product components, focusing on reliability, performance, and maintainability.
- Architect and own the CI/CD delivery platform to support fast, safe, and repeatable deployments.
- Lead the design and implementation of cloud infrastructure using infrastructure-as-code with clear standards for security, reliability, and cost management.
- Build and evolve internal developer tooling and platform capabilities to improve engineering productivity.
- Define and drive the observability strategy across application and infrastructure layers.
- Lead incident response for complex or high-severity events and drive systemic improvements.
- Apply AI tooling to accelerate work across the engineering surface and coach others in effective AI-assisted development practices.
- Define platform and development standards to reduce friction between product development and delivery.
- Mentor Associate and mid-level engineers, establishing a culture of engineering excellence.
