You are comfortable navigating multiple layers, environments, and methodologies of software development, and working across teams, technologies, and business products. The role designs, develops, deploys, and operates modern cloud-native applications across the full technology stack - user interfaces, APIs, data platforms, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and production support.\n\nA successful Builder at any level will be able to leverage AI-native development practices and tools such as GitHub Copilot and Claude Code to accelerate delivery, applying strong technical fundamentals, sound architectural thinking, and the judgment to solve complex problems with the right approach - whether that is code, automation, cloud platforms, data, or AI.\n\nBuilders are engaged to work in agile development teams, product development pods, operational reliability research and incident resolution SWAT teams, and can also work autonomously outside of a virtual team. Builders are the \"get it done\" roles with the skillset, experience, mindset, know-how, and intuition to actively dig-in, collaboratively engage, curiously discover, maturely solution, expertly develop, and deliver. You are given the problems to solve that other engineers simply do not have the skills or breadth of experience to adequately deal with, and maintain quality and speed in your work.\n\nAbout the role\n\nStrategy\n\nOwns the technical approach and delivery of individual features or services end-to-end within an established architecture, below a full capability or domain.\n\nContributes to technical design decisions for individual features or services within an existing architecture.\n\nIdentifies improvement opportunities within own area of work and raises them to senior team members.\n\nTechnology & Engineering\n\nDesign, build, test, deploy, and support individual features, services, or integrations with moderate guidance.\n\nDevelops UIs and backend services for defined requirements; hands-on across the stack sufficient to work independently within an established architecture; begins working with cloud-native services (Azure and/or AWS), containerized workloads, and relational/NoSQL data access, with guidance.\n\nDesigns and implements well-defined RESTful or GraphQL API endpoints and service integrations within an existing architecture.\n\nApplies secure engineering practices (authentication, authorization, secrets management) as defined by team standards.\n\nUses AI-assisted tools to accelerate delivery, applying independent judgment to validate AI-generated code, tests, and documentation.\n\nContributes to automated testing and CI/CD pipelines established by senior engineers; ensures changes are properly tested and do not introduce regressions.\n\nWrites clean, readable, maintainable code that meets the team's quality bar before review; considers scalability, performance, and maintainability when designing and building features.\n\nDelivery & Operations\n\nTranslates well-defined requirements into technical implementation plans for individual features or services.\n\nOwns individual features or services through the SDLC, from implementation through deployment and initial support.\n\nUses observability to monitor owned services and troubleshoot within scope; identifies where new telemetry, monitoring, and alerting are needed for owned services and implements them.\n\nParticipates in incident response and root cause analysis for issues within own area; participates in the on-call rotation, including as secondary/escalation support for Associate Builders.\n\nSupports production releases and deployments.\n\nProvides estimates for assigned work and delivers against sprint commitments; operates effectively within a delivery pod with minimal guidance, escalating only the most complex items.\n\nCollaboration & Leadership\n\nCollaborates with Product Managers, Project Managers, Architects, Data Scientists, DevOps Engineers, Data Engineers, Application Managers, other Software Engineers, Business Analysts, Business Sponsors, and Business Product Owners to deliver features.\n\nConducts peer reviews for engineers within own team.\n\nPartners with Associate Builders as capable contributors - pairing, reviewing their work, and helping them take on more complex work; sets a strong example in code quality, testing discipline, and engineering practices.\n\nParticipates in technical discussions and design reviews for own area; clearly communicates the design and logic of how features work.\n\nAbout you\n\nMinimum Qualifications\n\nExperience: 2–5 years of professional experience designing, developing, and supporting software applications.\n\nStack proficiency: Working, hands-on experience across several core stack technologies (.NET/C#, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, React, HTML/CSS, SQL/MongoDB), sufficient to contribute across at least two layers of the stack (UI + API, or API + data).\n\nAI / LLM engineering: Experience using AI-assisted tools in daily development, with judgment to validate AI-generated code, tests, and docs before merge; hands-on experience integrating LLMs into applications (model/API calls, prompt design, structured outputs), including basic RAG.\n\nTesting knowledge: Basic knowledge of API testing and automation tools (Postman, Newman, or Playwright).\n\nPreferred Qualifications\n\nBachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related discipline\n\nExperience designing multi-tier, distributed, or cloud-native applications\n\nExperience shipping production LLM/GenAI features, such as RAG pipelines, embeddings/vector search, prompt engineering, or tool-calling/agentic workflows\n\nExperience defining evaluations, monitoring, and guardrails for AI features (quality, safety, cost, latency)\n\nExperience with MongoDB - design, performance optimization, and indexing\n\nExperience with event-driven architectures, service-to-service integrations, or MCP-based solutions\n\nExperience with observability tooling such as Application Insights, Log Analytics, Grafana and OpenTelemetry\n\nBasic knowledge of performance testing tools and practices\n\nWhat you’ll get\n\nOur team members fuel our strategy, innovation and growth, so we ensure the health and well-being of not just you, but your family, too!
