You know when AI output needs verification, when it's a shortcut worth taking, and when it's not the right tool at all. * You've worked with or are curious about agentic workflows (multi-step, tool-using AI agents that plan and execute tasks) and understand how they differ from single-shot AI code completion. What We're Looking For * Demonstrated experience building and maintaining microservices in a CI/CD context. * Practical knowledge of cloud infrastructure and backend system development. * Understanding of distributed systems fundamentals and the challenges of scaling backend applications. * Familiarity with Agile methodologies and a commitment to applying best practices in automation and CI/CD. * Hands-on experience with AI-assisted development tools and agentic coding workflows, including any of the following: AI pair-programming / coding assistants (e.g., Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Kiro) Agentic development flows - using AI agents to plan, execute, and iterate on multi-step engineering tasks (e.g., scaffolding services, writing tests, running builds, opening PRs) Prompt engineering for code generation, review, and documentation Evaluating and validating AI-generated code for correctness, security, and maintainability before it ships * A clear-eyed approach to AI in engineering: leveraging it where it genuinely adds value and speed, while maintaining full engineering rigor and accountability for the output. * Willingness to learn, take feedback, and grow toward taking on broader scope over time. ## Description Are you passionate about automation and building reliable backend solutions? Do you want to grow your skills on microservices that power CI/CD processes and cloud infrastructure at scale? At Genesys, we're looking for a Software Engineer to join our platform team and help drive automation, scalability, and developer experience - using both strong engineering fundamentals and modern AI-assisted development practices., * Implement microservices for CI/CD: Build and maintain backend microservices in Python that support CI/CD pipelines, enabling reliable and scalable deployment processes. * Contribute to CI/CD infrastructure: Develop APIs and automation components that improve deployment and testing environments, increasing speed and reliability across the development lifecycle. * Support system reliability: Monitor and maintain backend services, investigate issues, and contribute to the availability and performance of distributed systems. * Apply AI-assisted engineering practices: Use tools like Claude, Cursor, and Kiro to accelerate coding, code review, testing, and debugging - while applying sound engineering judgment about when AI output needs verification versus when it can be trusted as-is. * Collaborate and grow: Work closely with cross-functional teams, participate in code reviews, and continuously develop your technical skills with support from senior engineers., * A Talent Acquisition Partner will review your application and, if your background is aligned, schedule a Zoom interview. * Next, you'll meet the hiring manager and other members of the interview team. * We aim to keep the process focused and respectful of your time, with no more than five interviews in most cases. * After interviews are complete, our team will follow up with the final steps. Every application is reviewed by a person. Response times may vary by role and location, but our team will keep you informed throughout the process.
