The Senior Software Engineer will contribute to delivery by designing and developing enterprise-level application components, integrations, and data structures with an AI-first engineering mindset, where automation and AI-driven workflows are used as standard solutions when suitable. This position is part of IT, aligned with Portfolio Leadership, and ensures ongoing development ownership and continuity. The role utilizes forward deployed engineering (FDE) and focuses on building and maintaining solutions for long-term support and growth.

What You Will Do:

• Design, build, and enhance enterprise application components supporting solution delivery, including initial delivery tranches and follow-on iterations.
  
• Engineer solutions using an AI first mindset, incorporating AI enabled workflows and automation as part of the core delivery approach where it adds value and is supportable long term by IT.
  
• Implement and optimize integration patterns and mass API workflows to connect systems and orchestrate end-to-end processing.
  
• Lead development of data architecture, database design, and data structuring approaches to support scalable solutions.
  
• Collaborate closely with business stakeholders and IT delivery partners in a cross functional, FDE model to move solutions from concept to production-ready delivery.
  
• Provide hands-on support as well as mentoring the junior developer(s) as needed.
  
• Partner with adjacent teams to ensure solutions are aligned with enterprise platforms, including emerging AI enabled capabilities.
  
• Apply enterprise standards and controls (e.g., security, access, change/release, testing standards), including additional controls for systems subject to ITGC/SOX where applicable.
  

What You Will Need:

• Bachelor's degree with minimum of 7+ years of experience in software engineering or application development roles, with a demonstrated track record delivering enterprise scale, production ready solutions.
  
• Strong experience developing full stack applications, including back end services (e.g., Python) and modern JavaScript frameworks (React.js and/or Next.js, TypeScript).
  
• Strong experience with integration development, including designing and consuming APIs and MCPs, high volume / mass API patterns, and end to end system connectivity.
  
• Strong experience with database architecture and data structuring, including designing for scalability, maintainability, and operational support.
  
• Experience working with containerized applications, including Docker and Kubernetes.
  
• Experience using GIT repositories, such as GitHub.
  
• Experience working within SDLC methodologies, including requirements, design, development, testing, and deployment.
  
• Demonstrated ability to incorporate AI enabled workflows and automation into enterprise solutions (delivery practicality, not just experimentation).
  
• Ability to work effectively in FDE, cross functional delivery teams, partnering directly with business and functional stakeholders to translate needs into working solutions.
  
• Domain expertise as a core requirement-ability to understand and operate fluently within the HR business domain that custom portfolio solutions support.
  
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  

What Would Be Nice to Have:

• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field or equivalent practical experience.
  
• Knowledge of enterprise workforce and delivery platforms, including HR systems like Workday, as well as related staffing, resource management, finance, time/utilization, and engagement delivery systems that support end-to-end resourcing and execution.
  
• Background in Microsoft Azure cloud services.
  
• Familiarity with DevOps CI/CD tools, such as Azure Pipelines or GitHub Actions.
  
• Experience working in a delivery model focused on rapid iteration within pods, utilizing reusable patterns and practical acceleration, while ensuring enterprise controls are maintained.
  
• Experience mentoring junior engineers and enhancing pod execution through effective engineering leadership.
