About the Role

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will design, build, test, deploy and document backend solutions on AWS, including the infrastructure and delivery pipelines that run them. You will improve shared patterns and components and help the team move its systems forward.

You will report to the Senior Director and work in agile teams that build and maintain highly visible, critical applications. You will design and tune software patterns, help teammates use them, and from time to time implement, test and document complex solutions. You will also keep strong, professional relationships with customers and partner teams.

You will follow emerging technology trends, apply them to College Board's needs, and work with teams on practices, standards and guidelines.

Our engineers use AI coding agents such as Claude Code and GitHub Copilot in everyday development, and you will help the team use them well and safely.

We're looking for a skilled communicator and active partner who can turn business needs into lasting, high‑quality solutions that support College Board's mission.
