In this role, you'll join an agile engineering organization building and operating a growing portfolio of firmwide platforms: Feature Request, Convey, TechTube, go/roadmaps, go/blogs, and go/engineers, that streamline product intake, customer communication, knowledge sharing, roadmap transparency, long-form technical publishing, and developer documentation across the organization. You'll contribute hands-on across the full SDLC to deliver scalable, cloud-native capabilities that improve transparency, collaboration, and value delivery for product teams firmwide. Given the common technology stack, cross-team contribution is common, and you'll frequently work on features spanning multiple products.

• Produce architecture and design artifacts for complex applications while ensuring design constraints are met by the code you develop.

• Build backend services, GraphQL/REST APIs, and modern React UIs, contributing to Module Federation micro-frontends and Hugo-based static content pipelines across the platform portfolio.

• Implement integrations that power the platforms, including Jira (for roadmap data), Bitbucket/GitHub (commit and contributor data), and notification and delivery workflows.

• Contribute to content and discovery features such as Lucene-based full-text search, documentation hosting, and content authoring pipelines (scaffolding, validation, build), supporting the go/blogs and go/engineers merge track.

• Use enterprise-authorized AI-assisted development tools to improve code quality and delivery speed, validating outputs for correctness, performance, and security.

• Gather, analyze, and synthesize data from large, diverse data sets, developing visualizations and reporting in service of continuous improvement of software applications and systems.

• Proactively identify hidden problems and patterns in data, and use those insights to improve coding hygiene and system architecture.

• Contribute to software engineering communities of practice and events that explore new and emerging technologies.

• Experience developing, debugging, and maintaining code in a large corporate environment with one or more modern programming languages and database querying languages.

• Overall knowledge of the Software Development Life Cycle.

• Solid understanding of agile methodologies such as CI/CD, application resiliency, and security.
