Staff Software Engineer

Role Overview

• As a Staff Software Engineer, you will play a key role in shaping and implementing the technology strategy across Ensemble software delivery teams.
• You will architect and develop scalable, resilient, and reusable software solutions that accelerate delivery and improve engineering efficiency.
• This role requires a deep understanding of modern software engineering patterns, a strong desire to mentor others, and a passion for elevating engineering practices.
• You will work closely with product, architecture, and engineering leadership to translate business objectives into actionable technical solutions.
• Through hands-on design sessions, technical prototyping, and code reviews, you will influence engineering behaviors and help establish high standards for quality, security, performance, and maintainability.
• Your work will directly impact the organization’s ability to achieve long-term strategic goals.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, or a related technical field; advanced degrees preferred.
• 7+ years of hands-on software engineering experience building production-grade applications using JavaScript/TypeScript, .NET Core, or similar languages, with a demonstrated ability to learn new technologies quickly.
• Deep understanding of core engineering fundamentals including automated testing, CI/CD, code quality, observability, DevOps practices, and iterative delivery.
• Experience working with at least three or more of the following: Continuous Integration & Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) platforms; RESTful API development and/or GraphQL; Serverless architectures (AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, etc.); Containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes); Infrastructure as Code (IaC) technologies (Terraform, CloudFormation, Bicep); Public cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP); Application observability and monitoring tooling; Event-driven or streaming architectures (Kafka, EventBridge, Pub/Sub).
• Proven experience building and supporting applications using componentized, microservices, or distributed architectures.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences in a globally distributed organization.
• Demonstrated knowledge of software architecture principles, design patterns, and engineering best practices.
• Exposure to AI-enabled development tools, code generation models, or ML-driven insights (e.g., Copilot, embedding models, vector search).
