About The Position

The Senior Software Engineer assesses gaps and changes between customer and business expectations and existing software products, classifies requirements, identifies risks, and recommends corrective actions. The role contributes to user stories and software designs, evaluates design trade-offs, and helps translate high-level designs into detailed functional logic and implementation plans.

The engineer develops and configures software components and applications that meet business, technical, security, availability, scalability, and maintenance requirements. Responsibilities also include selecting development languages and tools, learning relevant technologies, automating repetitive tasks, and independently implementing telemetry features.

The role maps customer requirements to test objectives, creates and executes test cases, performs different types of testing, tracks and analyzes defects, conducts regression testing, and uses lessons from prior defects to prevent recurrence. The engineer also troubleshoots performance and availability issues, performs complex application maintenance and re-engineering, monitors application metrics, analyzes logs and maintenance data, and evaluates change requests for validity and feasibility.

• Create and configure software code for components and applications, ensuring business, technical, non-functional, security, availability, scalability, and maintainability requirements are met.
• Assist with selecting programming languages, development standards, and tools; learn relevant languages and frameworks.
• Build scripts to automate repetitive tasks in CI/CD, testing, and other processes.
• Implement telemetry features independently as required.
• Map customer requirements to test objectives and identify and create test cases for components or modules.
• Execute test cases and appropriate types of testing; detect errors and defects.
• Track and analyze defects, perform regression testing after code changes, and use past defect analysis to prevent recurrence.
• Troubleshoot application performance and availability bottlenecks.
• Independently conduct complex application maintenance procedures and perform corrective, adaptive, and perfective maintenance and re-engineering.
• Monitor application performance using appropriate metrics.
• Analyze application logs, maintenance activity data, and performance data and provide analysis.
• Evaluate change requests to determine whether they are valid and feasible.
