[What you will be working on] As a Software Engineer, you will take on meaningful ownership of features and technical work that spans multiple components of our products. You will work with a degree of independence while continuing to grow through mentorship, and you will play an active role in shaping the quality, reliability, and culture of the team you work in. Craft & Execution You will deliver features and proofs of concept that span multiple components or modules, typically working across two to three areas within your team. While you will receive mentorship on architectural decisions and cross-component integration, you are expected to make thoughtful trade-offs between performance, security, and maintainability based on your understanding of the context. You will write and review code with clarity and long-term maintainability in mind, applying good engineering practices consistently, and you will expand test coverage - including unit and integration tests - to support key workflows and reduce flakiness. Beyond feature delivery, you are responsible for the team's CI/CD processes and deployment pipelines; and will address pockets of technical debt within your domain, suggest improvements that enhance product performance or team velocity. You will also take a deliberate approach to balancing short-term delivery speed with long-term code health, flagging when quick fixes introduce future risk, and applying organisational platform and compliance standards effectively. After your work ships, you are expected to follow through on its impact - checking metrics, reviewing error rates, and addressing post-deployment issues proactively. You will actively participate in incident triage and resolution with team support, and escalate complex issues when needed. You will also bring rigour to the use of AI-generated code, reviewing it for correctness, edge cases, security issues, and maintainability to the same standard as any human-authored contribution. Writing clear task descriptions and specifications to get higher-quality AI assistance and reduce rework is part of how you work. Ownership You will independently own your assigned tasks and projects, identifying and addressing issues proactively with minimal guidance. You will know when to seek help and from whom, and you will look for opportunities to recommend improvements to processes or outcomes within your own work. Strategic Alignment You will align your work with your team's goals and priorities, focusing on tasks that deliver the most expected business value. You will adapt to changing priorities independently, without needing to be redirected. Culture and Organisational Influence You will collaborate with peers and stakeholders to ensure work is executed effectively, address minor conflicts constructively and respectfully, and suggest improvements that enhance team effectiveness. You will share knowledge, resources, successes, and failures openly - because you understand that team success depends on everyone having the information they need. [What we are looking for]
