Job description

Solovis is a leading portfolio management and analytics platform helping institutional investors navigate today's complex global markets with clarity and confidence. Backed by Insight Partners, we're building the next chapter of growth by investing in people and product to raise the bar on quality and client outcomes. Our team is driven by culture and disciplined execution, humility, and curiosity - where AI is at the core of how we operate, innovate, and serve clients. At Solovis, you'll join a tech-forward, growth-minded team that believes in learning fast, thinking big, and delivering meaningful impact for asset owners worldwide. Our companies are not the largest or flashiest, but they are among the best-run software businesses creating value for customers and shareholders at an accelerated pace. To date, our team has built six platform companies, each culminating in multiple liquidity transactions with multi-billion-dollar valuations.

The Senior Software Engineer delivers production features, modernizations, and AI-powered capabilities across our stack. This is an AI-native role. The expectation is that agentic workflows are your default mode of working, from picking up a requirement through delivery, not a supplement to your existing process.

You will work alongside our Staff Agentic Engineering Lead and pair with existing engineers to transfer agentic working habits through real, shared work on production problems. You will contribute to sprint commitments with consistency and take genuine ownership of the systems you build, including when they break.

Key responsibilities

• Ensure consistent and reliable sprint performance by effectively managing and completing committed tasks.
• Contribute to the team's timely delivery, consistently meeting or exceeding the Release to Schedule targets.
• Consistently achieve or surpass software quality targets by effectively managing and reducing escaped defects in software releases.
• Consistently work towards reducing the backlog of Escaped Open Defects, improving product quality over time.
• Produce scalable and efficient code that performs well, with documentation that is comprehensive and easy to understand.

Key qualities

• Proficiency in utilizing data and analytics to make informed decisions and drive business strategies
• Detail-oriented and organized, this individual prioritizes effectively, excels at time management, and anticipates well in decision making
• Plays chess, not firefighting — spots problems before they exist, anticipates second- and third-order downstream impacts, and selects the intervention that compounds best.Distinction: Decisive under uncertainty is acting under incomplete information; Proactive Problem Solving is the upstream act of seeing the board clearly.
• Involves a meticulous approach to work, prioritizing accuracy and thoroughness to ensure high-quality outcomes
• Ability to swiftly adapt to changes and maintain high performance under shifting conditions and challenges

Skills

• AI proficiency
• AI-Augmented Development
• Implements Agile and Scrum methodologies to enhance project adaptability and response.
• Ensures software reliability through comprehensive unit testing.
• Utilizes web development expertise to enhance online platforms and services.
• Demonstrates expertise in SQL, .NET, and Java to develop robust software solutions.
• Manages data integration and transformation with ETL techniques for optimal data utilization.

Requirements

• 5 to 9 years of professional software engineering experience
• Production ownership history: you have shipped non-trivial systems and been accountable when things went wrong
• 6 or more months of serious, production-grade agentic tool use (Claude Code, Cursor, or equivalent). Production work only, not pilots or experiments
• Concrete understanding of when to let an agent run versus when to intervene, grounded in how well requirements were established before the work started
• Demonstrated ability to build product with AI, not just use AI within existing workflows
