Role Summary

The Senior Software Engineer leads implementation of complex features and epics, owns technical design end to end, and multiplies the pod's output — both by mentoring other engineers and by modeling what AI-first engineering actually looks like in practice.

What You'll Do:

Feature & Epic Implementation (:45%)

• Lead implementation of medium-to-large complexity features or epics, decomposing the work into tasks other engineers can pick up.

Architecture & Solution Design (:20%)

• Own technical design for self-contained or multi-service solutions, including proposing and diagramming the approach.

Mentorship & Code Review (:20%)

• Actively mentor Intermediate and junior engineers, and model AI-first practice (shared CLAUDE.md, skills library) so it spreads through the pod rather than staying one person's habit.

Client & Stakeholder Engagement (:15%)

• Lead technical discovery sessions, act as technical SME in client conversations, and contribute to pre-sales.

What You Bring:

• 5–8 years of experience, including leading feature- or epic-level work.
• A track record of using AI coding tools (Claude Code or equivalent) to materially speed up delivery — you can speak concretely to how, not just that you use one.
• Strong system design, testing, and mentorship instincts.
• Comfort engaging directly with clients and stakeholders on technical topics.

Nice to Have

• Experience standardizing engineering practices or contributing to a shared config/skills library.
• Experience with agentic or GenAI systems in production.

What Success Looks Like

• Complex Feature/Epic Leadership: Leads complex features and epics through to delivery with a consistently low post-deployment defect rate.
• AI-Accelerated Technical Design: Turns requirements into approved technical designs in a fraction of the time it used to take, using AI-assisted design and prototyping — the weeks-to-days compression this role is expected to drive for the pod.
• Reusable IP & AltaForge Contribution: Ships or evolves reusable components into AltaForge or shared libraries that see strong adoption elsewhere — moving the AltaForge Clients and Same-Agent-Across-Clients north stars.
• Mentorship Impact: Runs regular mentoring/pairing sessions with clear, visible skill growth in mentees.
• Client Confidence: Leads technical discovery/SME sessions that consistently earn strong client satisfaction — supporting USD Revenue % and Recurring License Sales % where the engagement is US-based or license-oriented.
