About The Position

The Associate Systems Engineer supports the integration design, testing, and ongoing development of the platform connecting Scoular’s business applications, trading partners, and data platforms. As part of an Agile Integration Team, the role works alongside senior integration engineers to build and maintain integrations, monitor the existing environment, and help triage and correct exceptions within short timelines. The position provides hands-on experience with enterprise integration, APIs, and automation, with a foundation for growth into an Integration Engineer role. Scoular uses an AI-assisted software development lifecycle. The role develops proficiency with Claude Code within a defined session lifecycle—kick-off, develop, code-review, build-check, and wrap-up—using Scoular’s .NET/C# and Azure stack and GitHub Enterprise. Key early skills include source control, testing, understanding message formats and data mappings, reading and debugging code, and knowing when to escalate. The role develops, tests, and documents integrations using Azure Integration Services and .NET/C# custom components. Work is submitted through pull requests for required review, uses approved packages and established scaffolding, and resolves security scan findings before promotion. The engineer is accountable for reading, testing, and understanding AI-generated code before submission. The position also supports monitoring and production troubleshooting, collaborates with internal and external stakeholders, documents integration requirements and designs, and follows change management and deployment processes through DEV, QA, and PROD. It builds technical foundations through mentoring, enablement, peer reviews, and practice in integration patterns, protocols, data transformation, testing, Git, and responsible AI use. Solutions must follow Scoular’s architecture, team standards, SOPs, and AI-specific Acceptable Use and ISO controls.
