The Job At-A-Glance:Q2 is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join our Q2 Code product team-an agentic development platform that revolutionizes how developers build, test, debug, and deploy SDK extensions in the Q2 ecosystem. This role is Product Engineering at its core: you'll operate in "startup mode" within Q2 proper, working directly with customers, interpreting telemetry, and owning the full software development lifecycle from concept to production.
You'll work alongside a collaborative team of engineers and a Product Manager to decompose customer needs into shippable deliverables, take direct feedback from hands-on user sessions, and iterate rapidly on features that empower the Q2 developer community. This is an opportunity to shape an emerging product with significant autonomy, technical depth, and real-world impact.
A Typical Day:- Design and implement features for the Q2 Code agentic platform using Python, SQL, and AWS services (Lambda, ECS, RDS, S3, CloudWatch)
- Break down product requirements into shippable milestones and deliver iteratively while maintaining system quality
- Build monitoring dashboards and observability tooling to track agentic workflows, extension builds, and deployment pipelines
- Respond to customer support requests using tracing, metrics, and debugging tools to resolve complex production issues
- Lead design discussions focused on performance, security, and cloud-native architecture
- Facilitate cross-functional design reviews with Product, UX, and engineering teams to drive alignment
- Own root-cause analysis for incidents, refine alerting, and establish best practices through code reviews
- Mentor junior developers in debugging, testing, and writing maintainable code
- Occasional availability for on-call/emergency support and ability to work flexible hours for critical releases
Bring Your Passion, Do What You Love. Here's What We're Looking For:- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or equivalent experience; 5+ years of related experience
- Deep proficiency in Python for backend services, data processing, and agentic workflows
- Advanced SQL skills for querying, schema design, stored procedures, and database optimization
- Strong AWS experience with core services (Lambda, ECS, RDS, S3, IAM, CloudWatch) and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/CloudFormation)
- Experience with full software development lifecycle, service-oriented architecture, and Agile development
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills with ability to collaborate across teams
- Demonstrated ability to balance good design principles with pragmatism to meet deadlines
Preferred Skills: - Experience with agentic development: AI agents, LLM-driven workflows, or autonomous systems
- Agentic UX design: chatbots, conversational interfaces, or async agent workflows
- Web development experience with front-end frameworks (Vue, Angular, React) and JavaScript/TypeScript
- Background in developer tools, SDKs, CLI tools, or platform engineering
