Job Summary:
Scope of the Role
The Software Engineer II is a mid-level technical contributor in the organization who is responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining software solutions. They are developing and building the applications and systems that run the company. This could be the backend systems, the frontend user experience, the products, or the tools to keep the business running. They may work independently or as part of a team and contribute to the technical direction of the software engineering department. The impact they should have on the company is to deliver high-quality software products that meet the needs of customers and stakeholders, while also continuing to develop their technical skills and knowledge. They should have a keen focus on learning and professional development, as well as a willingness to collaborate and communicate effectively with colleagues and stakeholders. A Software Engineer II is also expected to demonstrate proficiency with agentic AI coding tools, using them to independently accelerate feature delivery while applying strong judgment to validate every line of AI-generated output. Responsibilities:
Performance Outcomes
Performance Outcome: Development of Products or Systems
A Software Engineer II will have a deeper understanding of the development processes and tools, including a stronger focus on quality, thanmore juniorengineers.Initiallythe SoftwareEngineer II might write code according to a specification or ticket written by someone else, using an architecture and/or design created by others. However, as they advance, they will contribute increasingly more to defining the requirements, architecture, and design of what they are building. They are more capable of working independently and not being blocked byothers, andwill have developed someexpertisein their area of focus, which may include several different approaches to solving problems with their area.The SoftwareEngineer II will begin to work on components that span a product and potentially a system and will also understand the components of other immediate team members and how their system interacts with these components. While still focused on tasks and tickets, they will begin to see beyond the current ticket and solve problems outside of the task at hand – they will see beyond an individual sprint, with an understanding of work that ishappeningseveral sprints out.
Individual tasks include:
Frontend (as applicable):
Perform frontend coding for web and/or mobile, using React, React Native, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Node, or similar
Implement UI primitives spanning web and mobile (contributing to internal open-source frameworks)
Implement products used by external customers and service providers
Backend (as applicable):
Perform backend coding for systems and components, using C#/.Net, Node.js, or similar
Implement new features and functionality in Node.js, and .NET as needed
Write reliable and tested code including unit testing and CI/CD (continuous integration/continuous delivery) pipeline contributions
Track problems, resolutions, and bug fixes throughout testing and create a comprehensive database of defects and successful mitigation techniques
Use agentic AI coding tools (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor) proficiently to accelerate feature development, reduce boilerplate, and increase throughput —demonstratingthat one engineer + AI can match a small team’s output
Serve as a quality gate for AI-generated code: critically review output for logical errors, security flaws, performance issues, and alignment with requirements before merging Engage in ongoing personal study of modern technologies and industry-related knowledge and skills Performance Outcome: Engagement and Collaboration
The Software Engineer II will work intricately with their teammates and neighboring teams’ software engineers, product managers, and others. They will welcome and seek opportunities to learn and grow from more senior engineers as they also continue to develop their own leadership skills.
Engagement responsibilities include:
Work closely and effectively with teammates, which may include fellow software engineers, program/product managers, software test engineers, and others
Contribute to the implementation of dynamic requirements/initiatives with teammates, cross-team collaborators, and with business partners as appropriate
