Senior Application Software Engineer

Job Description Designs, develops, and enhances backend services and customer-facing features for a next-generation customer support ticketing platform throughout all phases of the software development lifecycle. Builds scalable software solutions that support customer support workflows while integrating with enterprise reporting platforms, forecasting tools, and enterprise data platforms.

Develops and maintains backend services, APIs, data models, and platform integrations that enable reliable data exchange, reporting, analytics, and operational workflows across enterprise systems. Designs scalable, secure, and maintainable solutions that balance software engineering best practices with data engineering principles.

Participates in architecture discussions, technical design, code reviews, debugging, and troubleshooting to improve application quality, reliability, and performance. Identifies and resolves moderately complex issues related to application functionality, APIs, integrations, and distributed services.

Collaborates with cross-functional engineering teams, product managers, and stakeholders to understand business requirements and deliver high-quality software that meets customer needs. Contributes to the implementation of intelligent platform capabilities that enhance customer experience and operational efficiency while maintaining generic, customer-focused solutions.

Follows secure coding practices, industry standards, CI/CD processes, and Agile development methodologies. Performs application maintenance, testing, upgrades, and vulnerability remediation to ensure secure, compliant, and production-ready software. Continuously contributes to improving engineering practices, code quality, automation, and operational excellence.

Responsibilities Key Responsibilities Application Software Development:

• Drives medium features and quality improvements with measurable performance and reliability outcomes.
• Provides global production support for critical issues with minimal guidance; improves playbooks/alerts.
• Troubleshoots and debugs non-routine issues spanning application layers and common OCI services; proposes fixes.
• Partners with QA to define test strategy (unit/integration) for features; ensures consistency across modules.
• Considers trade-offs in existing architecture; proposes moderate design improvements.
• Translates ambiguous requirements into scalable designs and implementation plans.
• Defines and stabilizes API contracts and dependencies for the application area.
• Recommends build priorities within the team using data from incidents, telemetry, and customer feedback.
• Systematically incorporates external feedback (forums, live-site reports) into backlog refinement.
• Mentors junior engineers; coordinates cross-functionally on feature delivery.
