Job Posting Title:
Sr Software Engineer
Req ID:
Job Description:
Business Operations team leads strategy and development of technology responsible for driving the day-to-day operation of the DEEP&T organization, including project and portfolio management and tracking; organization-level capital, space, and resource management and allocation; process management; technical incident management; and our administrative and workplace experience support team.
Job Summary:Join our Business Operations engineering team as a Senior Software Engineer and become a core driver of organizational efficiency. You will play a key role in the development, maintenance, and enhancement of our critical application portfolio.
In this role, you will leverage your deep technical expertise to deliver immediate impact, owning the end-to-end development of complex, medium-to-large-scale features and resolving high-priority system defects. You will act as a go-to technical authority, actively mentoring peers, defining and championing engineering best practices, and contributing to architectural decision-making.
A growing portion of the team's roadmap involves surfaces that interface with large language models (LLMs) - assistive flows, summarization, search, and tool-use experiences embedded into our internal platforms. This role is an opportunity for a strong frontend engineer to grow into that work alongside more senior AI-application practitioners on the team.
Responsibilities and Duties of the Role:Technical Leadership & Expertise- Own the design, development, and successful deployment of medium-to-large size software solutions, ensuring performance, quality, scalability, and security.
- Drive software engineering best practices, including design, code quality, security and testability within the team.
- Exhibit deep and broad technical expertise, with hands-on proficiency in key functional/specialty areas.
- Serve as a primary technical resource for the team, offering guidance on technical issues and new feature development.
- Participate in the design and delivery of features that integrate with LLM-backed services. For example streaming chat surfaces, structured-output forms, retrieval-grounded search, and tool-use interactions, partnering with senior AI-application engineers on the team.
- Help establish and refine team practices for using AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, or equivalent) effectively and responsibly in day-to-day development.
Execution & Impact- Solve complex technical problems with an innovative and experimental can-do attitude grounded by advanced technical skill and technique.
- Conduct thorough code reviews, focusing on requirements, design and coding standards, readability, testability, and optimization.
- Mentor and guide the work of less experienced engineers to develop solutions.
- Identify opportunities and recommend the development or implementation of solutions to improve products or processes with each iteration.
- Document technical details for assigned features, fixes, and projects.
Autonomy & Influence- Work independently with minimal guidance, applying judgment in selecting methods and techniques to resolve issues or satisfy requests.
- Make timely, informed technical decisions that moderately influence the work of team members and related projects.
- Participate in developing new technical approaches and tools.
- Communicate complex technical information effectively to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Required Education, Experience/Skills/Training:Basic Qualifications
- 5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience
- Strong problem-solving and analytical thinking.
- Ability to write clean, maintainable, and scalable code.
- Strong proficiency in React.js and its ecosystem (Hooks, Context API, React Router, etc.).
- Experience with state management libraries (Redux etc).
- Knowledge of TypeScript for better type safety and scalability.
- Understanding of modern UI/UX principles and component-driven development.
- Strong experience with Node.js, Express.js, or NestJS for building APIs.
- Proficiency in RESTful APIs and GraphQL development.
- Knowledge of authentication & authorization (JWT, OAuth, OpenID).
- Experience with microservices architecture and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes).
- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
- Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or GitLab CI.
- Understanding of testing frameworks (Jest, Mocha, Cypress, JUnit).
Preferred Qualifications
Frontend depth and platform experience- Experience with server-side rendering and modern React frameworks (Next.js, Remix) or comparable meta-frameworks.
- Experience building or contributing to a shared component library or design system at scale.
- Experience with real-time UIs - streaming responses, WebSockets/SSE, optimistic updates, partial rendering.
- Performance engineering experience - Core Web Vitals, bundle optimization, profiling, rendering performance.
AI-assisted development- Hands-on experience using agentic coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or equivalent) as a regular part of your workflow - beyond inline autocomplete.
- Experience authoring durable project context for AI tools - AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, Cursor rules, custom skills, or comparable artifacts that encode team conventions.
- Familiarity with plan-first / spec-first workflows when working with coding agents (plan mode, milestones, review gates) and with structured review of AI-generated code (hallucinated APIs, plausible-but-wrong logic, security regressions, prompt-injection risk in agentic flows).
AI application exposure (growth-area; not required)- Experience integrating LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Amazon Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, or equivalent) into web applications, even at the level of one or two shipped or seriously prototyped features.
- Experience building user-facing surfaces for LLM features - streaming UIs, tool-use / function-calling interactions, structured output rendering, citation and grounding UX, regeneration and interruption flows.
- Familiarity with the TypeScript AI ecosystem (Vercel AI SDK, Mastra, LangChain.js, official OpenAI/Anthropic TS SDKs, MCP clients) or working knowledge of the Python AI ecosystem (LangChain, LlamaIndex, evaluation frameworks).
- Awareness of LLM-application concerns in production: evaluation strategies (golden datasets, regression checks, LLM-as-judge with appropriate skepticism), observability and tracing (Langfuse, LangSmith, Helicone, OTel-based), token accounting, latency budgets, caching, and content safety.
- Awareness of AI-specific risks in user-facing surfaces - prompt injection via user input or retrieved content, output validation, PII handling, and responsible-use considerations.
Domain & ways of working- Experience building internal tools, developer platforms, or operations applications at scale.
- Experience working in a large, cross-functional engineering organization - coordinating across teams, navigating shared platforms, and contributing to org-wide standards.
- Experience in media, entertainment, sports, or streaming technology is a plus but not required.
Required Education- Bachelor's degree in computer science or a related technical field.
