Sr Software Engineer L5

Summary : Our Software Engineers are product focused, giving them the opportunity to work on a product and understand the layers of the software stack. Work includes documentation, automated testing, debugging, working with algorithms and data structures, coding, design, system performance scaling, and problem solving for highly technical and complex software programs. Responsibilities also include providing independent execution of medium-sized projects impacting teams of 3-4 people, contributing to the development of new ideas and principles, and working on long-range programs and objectives., * Write documentation and automated tests for code to be written.

• Implement functionality for automated tests that will successfully pass and meet coding standards.
• Debug production issues and create subsequent mitigation plans.
• Optimize performance of existing implementations.
• Look at non-familiar code and identify issues, while improving overall quality of system, and helping team members with debugging issues.
• Build the right data structures, add indices to fix performance issues, and determine data structures that perform best with respect to third party integrations.
• As a component owner, where the component impacts across multiple platforms (1-5 member team), refactor critical components of code, write easily extendable code, convert abstract engineering goals into actionable items and deliver it, code complex problems, dispatch algorithms, and make improvements to automation infrastructure.
• Identify platform quirks and hidden methods that can slow down or boost performance. Provide quick fixes to performance issues.
• Work with team to establish benchmark around the work done in App or in Backend. Determine where the bottlenecks are and how to implement better solutions.
• Prioritize tasks with Scrummaster that leads the team to be successful.
• Bring forward ideas to experiment and work in teams to transform ideas to reality.
• May include other duties as assigned.

Do you have experience in Software troubleshooting?, Do you have a Master's degree?, * Advanced understanding of computer science fundamentals, such as data structures, (trees, graphs, hash tables); understanding of functioning and implementation of basic algorithms, such as sorts, searching, and the capability to explain performance characteristics using Big-O Notations

• Capability to debug moderately complex problems and analyze logs in production systems and to read existing code
• Deep understanding of various data storage options, such as relational, no-SQL, etc.
• Excellent scripting skill in Shell, Python, or Ruby
• Excellent skills in languages, such as C, C++, Java, Golang, .net Core
• Experience in defining process with clear objectives and ways to measure the effectiveness of the process
• Ability to be on call on a rotating basis for the services owned by the team
