Description
👋 Hi, I’m Ben, Director of Engineering here at Dwolla. I’m looking for a talented Senior-level Software Engineer to join our fast-paced, collaborative, diverse Engineering team.
Here is what you can expect to work on in this critical role:
You will build systems with techniques like Test Driven Development and programming languages such as Scala, TypeScript, and C#. You will also design and deploy solutions with containerized microservices using technologies like AWS, Docker, Lambda, and ECS. This means you’ll design and build the products and services that power the Dwolla Platform. From public APIs and user interfaces to internal operational systems and 3rd party integrations, the solutions you build will solve real customer problems.
How do our Senior Product Software Engineers spend their time?
About 70% development(following an API-first approach to solving customer needs) and 30% team collaboration, mentoring and professional development. A typical day might include developing stories, unit testing, code reviewing, merging pull requests and participating in cadence meetings.
Our team values collaboration, a passion for learning and a desire to become a master of your craft. We thrive in asynchronous communication. You will have a lot of support from leadership when you communicate proactively with detailed information about any roadblocks you may encounter.
Qualities of Senior Software Engineers Who Thrive in This Role
🔥 You are a driven, self-starter type of person who isn’t afraid to dig for answers, stays up-to-date on developer trends and is always looking for ways to enhance your knowledge (yes, industry-related podcasts count! 🎧) .
🤝 You’ve served as a mentor for junior engineers and view influential and informal leadership as an exciting opportunity in any role.
🏆 Although the nature of this work is fairly individualist, the ability to collaborate with the team via code review and architecture discussions is vital (and we really love it when team members are active participants in our cadence meetings).
