Description
Sora, an ADP company, is hiring a Senior Lead Full-Stack Software Engineer.
Well, this may be the role for you. Ready to build what’s next?
This role is for a motivated team player based in Brazil to work closely with Sora’s product and development teams in the United States, across most US time zones. Strong written and verbal communication skills, availability for virtual meetings, and prompt asynchronous responses are essential to keep everything running smoothly.
Sora/Enhanced Workflows, an HR Workflow automation product, is empowering people-focused teams to create exceptional employee experiences. HR teams should be spending time with people, but unfortunately all facets of People teams are bogged down by managing processes instead of helping people. That’s where Sora/Enhanced Workflows comes in: we’re building a product that streamlines the tedious and repetitive work People teams do every day, from sending emails to assigning onboarding tasks to a new hire’s manager to syncing data across anywhere from 3 to 20 tools in a customer’s HR stack.
As a Senior Lead Full-Stack Software Engineer, you'll be an integral part of the agile and dynamic Sora engineering team. We take a startup mindset—focused, action-oriented, and quick to execute, while always being thoughtful in our approach.
In this role, you'll collaborate with a diverse group of stakeholders, including Product Managers, Architects, DevOps Engineers, and QA Engineers in both the US and Brazil. Together, you'll plan, design, develop, test, and deploy impactful solutions that cater to businesses of all sizes—from small teams to large enterprises. You’ll also engage closely with cross-functional teams across ADP, contributing throughout the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC)—from product alignment and technical discovery to end-to-end integration and ongoing support.
Success in this role requires strong collaboration, excellent communication, and deep technical expertise. It’s ideal for someone who’s proactive, easy to work with, and adaptable to a fast-paced environment. If you enjoy collaboration and staying organized, this could be a great fit!
To thrive in this role, you’ll need 8+ years of experience in modern web development and cloud technologies, and substantial experience in DevOps (CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, production support).
You’ll be responsible for developing and shipping features and updates to Sora/Enhanced Workflows that bring joy to our clients, keep our product working smoothly for end users, and ensure we’re a secure source of employee data for customers.
You’ll build services and infrastructure in our backend implement frontend functionality, lead initiatives on performance, scale, and the “–ilities” (reliability, observability, etc), and contribute to the foundation of our engineering team. You’ll help us keep our code up-to-date with best practices, and be a champion for shipping well-tested and well-organized code.
You’ll be a driver for positive change to our team’s engineering culture, processes and technology.
As part of our team, you’ll find exciting challenges, get opportunities to grow your career, and develop solid friendships as we design what’s next for Sora/Enhanced Workflows, ADP, and the industry.
