Software Engineer (Hybrid)
About The Position
The Software Engineer will join Cisco’s Go to Market IT organization, specifically the Cisco.com engineering team, which builds and maintains the company’s flagship corporate website and supports customer and partner experiences across the lifecycle. The team works on transformational initiatives, acquired-company integrations, cloud-native technologies, and the integration of artificial intelligence tools and large language models. The role develops and maintains a framework-agnostic component system and its Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) implementations. It includes architecting AEM authoring solutions, translating Figma prototypes into accessible, high-performance components, collaborating on shared design patterns, and guiding content authors. The engineer also contributes to documentation, code reviews, functional discovery, and keeping the component system current with emerging front-end technologies and tooling.

- Ability to build and maintain automated evaluation harnesses for testing LLM outputs and measuring accuracy, hallucination rates, latency, and regressions across model and prompt versions.
- Experience instrumenting evaluation harnesses to capture traces, token usage, response-quality metrics, and failure modes for ongoing model-performance monitoring.
- Ability to build harness metrics that track token consumption per test case and prompt version for cost-versus-quality analysis across model iterations.
- Familiarity with WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility standards, ARIA, and keyboard interaction models.
- Knowledge of Git and Gitflow principles and semantic versioning.
- Excellent communication skills and a collaborative approach with designers, partners, and peers.
Responsibilities
