Crowe is looking to hire a Software Engineering Specialist into our Product Engineering practice to help build and modernize solutions for Crowe's Audit services. This is a high-impact role for an engineer who thrives on variety and ownership.

Unlike a traditional engineer embedded in a single Scrum team, this position is intentionally flexible. You will deploy to the highest-priority need across Audit's product portfolio and innovation initiatives, joining a team to deliver a critical feature, partnering with our innovation group to prototype what's next, or unblocking a stalled effort. This position will balance the various priorities with the stability needed to contribute and deliver.

The ideal candidate brings deep expertise across the Microsoft stack, a real passion for software craftsmanship, and expertise applying AI to deliver business value.

• Deliver software for Audit's flagship products and innovation team to drive the discovery and delivery of high-value features that modernize how Crowe delivers Audits.
• Ramp quickly into new teams and begin contributing meaningfully with minimal onboarding.
• Engage with Agile Scrum teams for feature development and delivery, adapting to each team's cadence and conventions.
• Leverage Azure PaaS services to deliver business value efficiently and at scale.
• Build and integrate AI solutions that align with the quality and transparency needs of an Audit practice.
• Use AI coding assistants to accelerate the rate at which you, and your team, deliver value.
• Collaborate with Audit practitioners and product teams to refine requirements and translate business needs into sound technical solutions.
• Consult with teams and Architects to build consensus on architectural approaches.
• Embrace a Shift Left mindset, weaving quality into the development lifecycle from the start.
• Proactively surface and address impediments to help teams meet Sprint objectives.
• Collaboratively contribute to establishing, reviewing, and upholding software development practices and architectural standards.
• Troubleshoot product issues quickly and efficiently across a range of systems.

• Minimum of 10 years of professional software engineering experience developing, implementing, and supporting enterprise applications using an n-tier architecture, the Microsoft technology stack, and the .NET framework.
• Strong experience with ASP.NET and modern client-side development in React or Angular.
• Strong experience building applications on the SQL Server platform using T‑SQL, stored procedures, and functions, and proficiency with Entity Framework or a comparable ORM.
• 1+ year experience designing and implementing AI-assisted workflows and solutions into software products using large language models on a major platform such as Microsoft Foundry, Anthropic, or OpenAI.
• Experience optimizing prompts, context management, and token usage to improve response quality while managing performance and cost.
• Hands‑on experience using an AI coding assistant such as Git Hub Copilot or Claude Code to accelerate development.
• Solid understanding of object‑oriented programming and ability to apply inversion of control and unit testing to deliver loosely coupled, high‑quality architectures.
• Experience with Azure Dev Ops (or a similar work‑item management tool) and Git for version control.
• Ability to conduct thoughtful code reviews and collaborate with others to improve solutions…
