Job Description

An Internal Development Platform (IDP) provides the foundation for an organization's software development and delivery processes. This includes modern tools and services that enable self-service capabilities to create, deploy, and manage cloud-native systems efficiently and securely. Modularity, composability, discoverability, and abstraction of complexity across disparate systems are key characteristics of a well-architected IDP, resulting in improved software quality, delivery performance, operational excellence, and developer experience.

The Software Engineer II is responsible for designing, developing, and supporting platform services and capabilities that enable engineering teams to build, deploy, and operate applications at scale. This role contributes to the implementation and continuous improvement of the Internal Development Platform through software engineering best practices, cloud-native technologies, automation, and operational excellence. The Software Engineer II demonstrates ownership of assigned solutions, collaborates effectively across teams, and continuously seeks opportunities to improve platform capabilities and developer productivity.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, test, deploy, and support Internal Development Platform services, APIs, and automation capabilities.
• Build and maintain cloud-native solutions that enable scalable and secure software delivery.
• Drive adoption of modern engineering practices including API-first development, microservices, domain-driven design, TDD, CI/CD, GitOps, and Kubernetes.
• Improve developer experience through self-service workflows, platform standards, automation, and documentation.
• Implement platform observability through monitoring, logging, telemetry, alerting, configuration management, and secret management solutions.
• Partner with product, platform, and application teams to troubleshoot issues and improve reliability and performance.
• Contribute to multi-cloud platform capabilities across AWS and Azure environments.
• Research and evaluate emerging technologies, including AI-assisted engineering capabilities, to enhance platform efficiency and adoption.
• Participate in Agile ceremonies and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 2+ years of professional software engineering experience building applications, APIs, services, or cloud-native solutions.
• Hands-on experience with JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, and modern application development frameworks.
• Strong understanding of API development, microservices architecture, secure coding practices, and data modeling.
• Experience with AWS and/or Azure cloud services.
• Experience with container technologies such as Docker and orchestration platforms including Kubernetes and/or ECS.
• Experience implementing CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, AWS CodePipeline, or similar tools.
• Strong problem-solving, troubleshooting, communication, and collaboration skills.
