The Role We Want You ForWe are looking for a highly adaptable
Software Engineer to join our Application Development team. This role is ideal for a full-stack developer who enjoys working directly with business users, rapidly turning ideas into solutions, and using modern AI development tools to accelerate software delivery.
A key part of this role will be partnering with business users who are building prototype applications and helping transform those prototypes into secure, scalable, production-ready applications. The Software Engineer will be responsible for applying sound software engineering practices, implementing appropriate architecture and security controls, integrating enterprise data and systems, and ensuring applications can be hosted, supported, and operated appropriately within the enterprise.
In many cases, the business will continue to own the application's features, functionality, and product direction after the prototype is converted. Application Development will partner closely with those business owners while maintaining responsibility for key technical areas such as
security, hosting, vulnerability management, and performance within the application and hosting layers under our control.
We are embracing an
AI-first development approach, and the successful candidate must be comfortable using AI-powered development tools such as
Claude Code, Codex, and similar technologies as a significant part of their day-to-day development workflow.

- Evaluate prototype applications and determine what should be retained, redesigned, or replaced before production deployment.
- Apply enterprise standards for security, authentication, authorization, hosting, data access, and application architecture.
- Help ensure applications meet organizational expectations for security, vulnerability management, hosting, reliability, and performance within the application and hosting layers under our control.
- Partner with business owners who may continue to manage feature priorities, functionality, and application direction after production deployment.
- Use AI development tools such as Claude Code, Codex, and other coding assistants extensively throughout the software development lifecycle.
- Participate in architecture and design discussions and contribute to the continued evolution of development standards and reusable application patterns.
- Troubleshoot application, integration, performance, and production issues.
- Manage multiple applications, priorities, and development efforts in a fast-moving environment.
