Software Engineer II

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.

This role sits at the intersection of two strategically important areas of 's engineering organization:
Strategic Partner eXcellence (SPX) Dev
ice Platform
.

SPX establishes the partner enablement function for 's highest-value PaaS integrations. The team architects and maintains the Core Partner Platform — shared edge services, event pipelines, authentication infrastructure, and integration patterns — that allow strategic partners to build reliably on top of 's stack.

Device Platform builds and evolves the foundational shared capabilities that underpin 's connected device ecosystem. This spans the full arc ofhow devices are modeled, integrated, and managed on the platform — from the APIs and event pipelines that expose device state and commands, to thelifecycle management flows that govern how devices are provisioned and maintained, to the transport and protocol infrastructure that connects physical devices to the platform at scale.

These two areas are deeply connected. The partner-facing platform depends on the device platform being reliable, well-bounded, and evolvable. An SE IIin this space contributes meaningfully to both — building and maintaining the platform capabilities that teams and partners depend on, and growing their technical ownership over time.

The team is led by an Engineering Manager and supported by a senior Architect. The SE II hired into this role will work in close partnership with senior engineers and the broader team, taking on increasing ownership of technical work within a well-supported structure.

We are hiring a Software Engineer II to contribute to the SPX and Device Platform domains as a capable, independent individual contributor.

At , the SE II carries a clear mandate: independently complete technical tasks with good quality, take meaningful ownership of their work, andgrow steadily toward leading small projects end-to-end. This is a hands-on engineering role. The SE II writes production code, participates in design andcode reviews, contributes to project delivery, and develops the technical and process fluency needed to operate with increasing autonomy.

Projects span device APIs, event pipelines, device lifecycle management, and partner-facing platform capabilities. The SE II is expected to complete assigned work with high-level direction, seek out the information they need to succeed, and communicate proactively about progress and blockers.

Success in this role requires solid programming fundamentals, growing familiarity with 's architecture and processes, and the professional communication skills to collaborate effectively across engineering, QE, PM, and operations. This is a growth role — the right person will be on a clear trajectory toward Senior SE, demonstrating increasing independence, ownership, and technical judgment over time.

• Write and maintain high-quality backend code across the SPX and Device Platform domains, including device state and command APIs, event pipelines, device lifecycle management flows, and partner-facing integration components.
• Complete assigned tasks and features independently with high-level direction, seeking out information and context as needed to deliver good outcomes.
• Participate actively in code reviews — both receiving feedback and providing thoughtful, constructive review on peers’ work.
• Ensure the code you write is correct, well-tested, and maintainable — treating documentation and testing as first-class engineering concerns, not afterthoughts.
• Debug and troubleshoot issues across environments, applying systematic reasoning to identify root causes and deliver durable fixes.

• Take meaningful ownership of your work across the full development cycle — from design through implementation, testing, and release.
• Lead small, single-engineer projects or well-scoped…
