Job Description
The Purpose of This Role
Being technically competent is telling only half of the story. We believe that delivering the best possible customer experience requires an artful blend of human ingenuity and technology. The things between the pixels are what sets us apart. While we value smart technologists, we are fanatics about our Culture Code that promotes leadership at all levels. Associates who demonstrate curiosity to learn and are brave to break things, who step up and take lead and take ownership of their projects and those that thrive by sharing knowledge are what would make you a great cultural fit.
The Value You Deliver
As a Lead - Software Engineer with expertise and experience in designing and developing applications including new developments, enhancements, maintenance and support. The role involves continuous collaboration with partners, iterative understanding of requirements, following Fidelity best practices / methodologies, thorough understanding of the technology roadmap, advancement to design / development process.
Consistently making culture choices that positively impact all of engineering. Engineering excellence is a collective set of choices we make as technologists, whether to increase code coverage or ship a product, investing in developer productivity vs saving $$$.
You do not compromise for the sake of social acceptance and demonstrate conviction and drive to operate in highly ambiguous situations thriving in uncertainty while keeping your eyes on the long-term vision.
Drive technical discussions, arbitrate and recommend optimal path forward in a room of highly opinionated engineers that may or may not agree with you.
The Skills that are Key to this role
You have a creator mindset with rapid prototyping ability. You love building things, taking an idea, visualizing the design and creating rapid prototypes that are shippable.
You paid attention in those Algorithms and Data Structures classes or mastered them online. We build systems that operate at thousands of transactions/second on an array of platforms. If you cannot discern between linear vs exponential time complexity, our customers will suffer.
You understand your browsers, http, mobile and/or web eco-systems. You should be able to debug an http-trace, understand CRUD operations and how information flows between systems. And while you are at it, we expect you to know your way around Unix pretty well.
You have a testing methodology. You demonstrate a test-driven approach to developing software, can build or contribute to automated testing frameworks that can detect any anomalies in functionality, performance and integration. It’s all about beating our customers to finding things that are broken.
You actually enjoy working in a highly collaborative environment. We work within close confines of our designers, product owners, operations in a collaborative open space environment. Cube-dwellers might find it hard to sustain-don’t be one.
