Overview We are looking for a Software Engineer I to join the Product Engineering department within our Incentives business. This early‑career full‑stack engineer will help build and improve customer‑facing product experiences across the frontend, backend, APIs, and cloud while learning how to operate inside a modern product engineering model that connects product outcomes, technical delivery, instrumentation, and post‑release learning. This role is a fit for an early‑career engineer who wants to grow in a customer‑obsessed environment where secure, scalable, iterative delivery matters, and practical exposure to AI‑assisted workflows. Responsibilities Collaborate with product, design, and other engineers to understand requirements and deliver usable product increments. Use AI‑assisted development tools thoughtfully to accelerate delivery and improve quality without compromising clarity, reliability, or accountability. Help define, implement, and monitor the features you build through testing, release readiness, and post‑release. Support shared ownership of systems through documentation, diagrams, and knowledge sharing. Contribute to operational excellence by helping investigate issues, improve support readiness, and strengthen production discipline. Qualifications BA/BS in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience. Recent history of software engineering experience, including internships, co‑ops, academic projects, or equivalent hands‑on development work. Proven experience using modern web development with JavaScript or TypeScript, HTML, CSS, and a frontend framework such as React or Vue. Proven backend experience with Java, Node.js, Python, Postgres, cloud‑based services via AWS, REST APIs, or equivalent technologies. Interest in AI‑enhanced development using tools such as GitHub Copilot, Playwright, MCP, and agent orchestration. Interest in working across the full stack and learning how product, frontend, backend, APIs, cloud, and operational concerns fit together. Interest in product thinking: understanding who the user is, what outcome matters, and how to leverage metrics to assess customer impact post‑release. Strong communication skills and willingness to collaborate across distributed teams and cross‑functional partners. Comfortable learning in an evolving environment balancing product modernization, security, and operational maturity. Mindset of curiosity, shared ownership, steady learning, and comfortable operating in a low‑ego environment. Success In the first 6–12 months, you’ll be shipping useful product work, learning the product deeply, participating in measurable releases, and becoming a dependable team contributor with growing ownership of a functional area. You’ll be involved in our Production Support rotation, helping triage real customer problems with colleagues across departments. Success also means building collective context across your team so that knowledge does not stay in a vacuum. Why Join Us Learn from experienced engineers committed to mentorship. Work on real product features with real impact. Build full‑stack engineering skills. Grow capabilities in AI‑enhanced software development within a product engineering organization that is actively evolving how it builds, measures, and improves customer workflows.
