We are seeking a Software Engineer who can reliably deliver features end-to-end with occasional direction, while growing toward the independence and ownership expected of a Senior Engineer. You will contribute across the SDLC, collaborate closely with product, QA, and other engineers, and steadily take on more complex work over time.

Responsibilities:

• Deliver small to moderately complex features across the SDLC, from understanding requirements through implementation, testing, and release.
• Write clean, maintainable, and testable code, following team standards and established patterns.
• Collaborate with stakeholders and other engineers to clarify requirements and translate them into workable technical tasks (including constraints, risks, and tradeoffs).
• Contribute to system reliability and supportability through automated tests, debugging, and incremental improvements.
• Triage and resolve defects in production and non-production environments, escalating and pairing as needed.
• Participate in code reviews as both author and reviewer, and incorporate feedback to improve engineering quality.
• Create and maintain lightweight technical documentation (implementation notes, runbooks, and operational considerations).
• Grow ownership over one or more modules, workflows, or services over time, including knowledge sharing with the team.
