About The Position

The Senior Software Engineer will serve as the technical anchor for a new feature/capability being added to our product. The ideal candidate will be able to architect/design a new feature and translate complex business requirements into robust, documented technical designs. Responsibilities will include coordinating closely with members of an Integrated Feature Team (IFT) to ensure high-quality delivery through the lifecycle. This role involves architectural analysis and design, deconstructing complex requirements to determine system impact, and leading the creation of design documentation using Object-Oriented (OO) principles to ensure new features integrate seamlessly without technical debt. The engineer will also act as the feature lead, being responsible for the "definition of done," guiding a feature from initial concept through development, testing, and deployment. Additionally, the role requires serving as the technical liaison to the Systems Engineering team, decomposing high-level feature designs into actionable tasks for the development team, managing feature status to leadership, mentoring junior/mid-level peers, and conducting rigorous merge request (MR) reviews to maintain code standards, security protocols, and performance benchmarks.
