Senior Engineer I

Role Description

As a Senior Engineer I on the Consumer Payment Portal team, you will be a core architect of the digital interface that empowers consumers to resolve their financial obligations with ease and dignity. This isn't just a standard transaction engine; it is a high-concurrency, user-centric payment ecosystem. You will collaborate directly with our UX and Payments teams to bridge the gap between complex backend services and a flawless web interface.

Your primary goal is to introduce innovative payment workflows—like flexible scheduling and alternative payment methods—while championing code maintainability, managing technical debt, and executing long-term technical roadmaps.

• Shape the Consumer Experience: Partner cross-functionally with UX and Payments teams to design, build, and maintain a seamless, accessible front-end web experience that removes friction from the payment process.
• Architect Modern Workflows: Develop and extend cutting-edge features, including alternative payment integrations and flexible scheduling models, to give consumers personalized options that suit their financial realities.
• Own the Initiative Lifecycle: Take full end-to-end technical responsibility over complex, long-term product features, from initial scoping with Product Management to production delivery and post-launch stewardship.
• Drive Technical Strategy: Translate high-level business and product requirements into elegant, documented technical implementations, contributing directly to the team's engineering roadmap.
• Champion Engineering Excellence: Write high-quality, highly maintainable code across our streaming architectures and microservices, leading by example through constructive, detailed feedback in code reviews.
• Conquer Technical Debt: Proactively identify, prioritize, and record structural inefficiencies within the codebase, planning and executing clear paths to systematically resolve tech debt.
• Multiply Team Impact: Mentor and level up fellow engineers through pair-programming and active knowledge sharing, while supporting a healthy team balance to prevent overwork and burnout.
• Guard System Reliability: Predict potential system breaking points, implement robust automated testing, and participate in an on-call rotation to maintain the exceptional uptime of your team's domain.
