Software Engineer II

Overview

As a Software Engineer II
, you will contribute to the design, development, testing, and deployment of proprietary software applications while leveraging modern AI-powered development tools to enhance efficiency. In this role, you will design, develop, and optimize software applications, leveraging modern technologies and AI-powered tools to enhance system performance and streamline business processes.

You will gain experience in modern front-end frameworks (React.js or similar), Graph

QL APIs, and infrastructure-as-code tools (Terraform or similar), while also leveraging low-code platforms to build and enhance agent- and customer-facing application UIs, accelerating development and improving user experiences. Additionally, you will utilize AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Git Hub Copilot, OpenAI Codex, Tabnine) to streamline coding, automate repetitive tasks, and improve code quality.

This position is ideal for a technically skilled, growth-oriented engineer who enjoys collaborating within a team, solving problems, and learning modern software development methodologies.

• Software Development & AI-Enhanced Engineering
  • Develop and maintain C#, .NET Core, and SQL-based applications, leveraging AI-powered coding tools (e.g., Git Hub Copilot, OpenAI Codex) to enhance productivity.
  • Assist in the development of modern front-end applications using React.js (or similar frameworks and low code platforms) and Graph
    
    QL (or REST APIs).
  • Participate in the design, documentation, testing, and debugging of applications while ensuring best coding practices.
  • Work with low-code platforms to build front-end applications for agents and customers, streamlining business processes.
• Collaboration & Business Integration
  • Work closely with senior engineers, business users, and cross-functional teams to understand technical requirements and user needs.
  • Contribute to the development and implementation of new features and functionality, as well as enhancements and optimizations for existing applications.
  • Provide technical support and troubleshooting, working with the team to resolve application issues.
  • Participate in discussions to determine business value-driven priorities for development efforts.
  • Stay current with emerging technologies, AI-powered development tools, and modern engineering practices.
  • Learn from senior engineers while also collaborating with and supporting junior developers.
  • Contribute to team discussions on modern software architecture, Dev Ops automation, and AI-driven development.

• Associate or Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent work experience).
• 3+ years of experience in software development with C#, .NET Core, React or equivalent, and SQL.
• Experience working on complex assignments and supporting legacy and modern environments.
• Exposure to AI-assisted coding tools (Git Hub Copilot, OpenAI Codex, Tabnine) preferred.
• Experience with low-code platforms (Microsoft Power Apps, Out Systems, Mendix) is a plus.
• Familiarity with modern front-end frameworks (React.js, Vue.js, or Angular) and API development (Graph
  
  QL, REST).
• Basic experience with cloud computing (Azure, AWS, or GCP) and Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Pulumi, or similar) preferred.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to troubleshoot software issues and contribute to system optimizations.
• Effective collaboration and communication skills, capable of working within a team and engaging with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Proactive and eager to learn, with a growth mindset and a willingness to adopt new technologies and best practices.
• Ability to contribute to team discussions and share knowledge, supporting a culture of continuous learning and AI-assisted development.
