Overview

provides the leading cloud platform for smart security and IoT, powering millions of home and business experiences. Our systems integrate devices, cloud services, APIs, and event-driven workflows into a unified ecosystem used by internal teams and external partners around the world.

Role Summary

We are hiring a Software Engineer II to contribute to the design and development of backend services, APIs, and full‑stack features that power 's device integrations.

What You'll Do Design & Architecture
  • Implement backend components, APIs, and event‑driven workflows that are reliable, maintainable, and aligned with platform architecture.
  • Contribute to technical design for well‑scoped features with guidance from senior engineers.
  • Translate requirements into technically sound solutions consistent with existing patterns.
  • Participate in design reviews, offering input and learning from team feedback.
Implementation & Delivery
  • Write high‑quality, maintainable, and well‑tested code for backend services used in production at scale.
  • Contribute to event‑driven data pipelines (e.g., Kafka), with a focus on reliability and correctness.
  • Deliver work through the full development lifecycle: design → implementation → validation → iteration.
  • Debug production issues with support from senior engineers, implementing fixes that improve long‑term stability.
Operational Excellence
  • Follow team practices for monitoring, alerting, and operational readiness to ensure systems remain healthy.
  • Contribute to observability of services you build, including logging, metrics, and alerting.
  • Support DELI's work to track and understand device integration outcomes and system health.
Collaboration & Growth
  • Work closely with senior engineers, Product Managers, and TPMs to understand requirements and deliver quality solutions.
  • Participate in code reviews—both as a reviewer and as someone welcoming feedback to grow.
  • Engage in cross‑team technical discussions, raising questions and surfacing potential issues early.
  • Actively develop your skills across backend, full‑stack, and distributed systems domains.
Contributing Broadly
  • Identify opportunities to improve code quality, reliability, and maintainability within your area.
  • Contribute to documentation, onboarding guides, and engineering best practices.
  • Clearly articulate design decisions, explaining tradeoffs to peers and stakeholders.
What We're Looking For

Required Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 2+ years of professional software development experience.
  • Strong object‑oriented programming skills.
  • Experience with database design and development.
  • Experience creating and maintaining unit tests.
  • Familiarity with building and/or consuming RESTful APIs.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively with engineers and cross‑functional teammates.
  • Experience using AI‑assisted development tools (e.g., Git Hub Copilot, ChatGPT) to streamline development while maintaining engineering standards.
  • Ability to review and validate AI‑generated code, tests, and documentation for correctness and maintainability.
  • Exposure to distributed systems or large‑scale production environments.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with .NET/C# and SQL Server is strongly preferred, as this is the foundation of our backend stack.
  • Exposure to event‑driven systems (Kafka or similar).
  • Experience with Test‑Driven Development (TDD) and automated testing frameworks (unit, integration, end‑to‑end).
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), or cloud platforms.
  • Experience or interest in IoT, device communication protocols, or connected hardware platforms.
The Impact You'll Have
  • You'll contribute to backend systems that directly shape how devices integrate with 's platform.
  • You'll grow your engineering skills within a team focused on device‑facing reliability, consistency, and scale.
  • You'll help deliver features and improvements that real users experience through their connected devices every day.
  • You'll take on meaningful ownership of well‑scoped features and systems, with room to grow your scope and autonomy over time.
