Senior Software Engineer (AML Team)
About the role
Senior Software Engineer
WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Design and build well-architected TypeScript features end to end for our AML services (case management, business backends and person service), and our customer facing Admin Panel, treating performance, scalability, security and observability as part of the design
- Lead team-level design reviews and write design docs or ADRs for significant changes, accounting for how your services interact with the rest of the SEON platform
- Challenge requirements that don't add up, and raise delivery risks early with a proposed mitigation
- Consistently deliver high-quality code with simplicity, security, testability, performance, and scalability in focus, setting the example others follow
- Maintain and develop client-side JavaScript libraries, the Node.js backend of AML Services and Nest.js / ExpressJS services
- Take part in the on-call rotation, debug complex cross-system issues and drive root cause analysis for significant incidents, with blameless follow-up
- Proactively improve monitoring, alerting and runbooks for the services you own
- Own the testing approach for your services, setting quality gates and keeping the code maintainable and well tested
- Prioritize and fix issues reported by QA and customers, and bring the customer's voice into planning and prioritization
- Track implementation progress using company processes and software (github / jira)
- Review code written by the team with technical depth, giving direct, constructive feedback that helps others grow
- Collaborate with your PM, the QA team, Architects and the Devops team on a continuous basis, and communicate with senior stakeholders so decisions are framed well and context reaches the whole team.
- Lead planning and estimation, break large and ambiguous projects into incremental work streams, and step into a tech or project lead role on significant initiatives, setting the pace and unblocking others.
- Drive improvements to the team's CI/CD pipelines, tooling and ways of working, and use retrospective data and delivery metrics to measure the results
- Work with large datasets, such as screening and watchlist data, keeping them performant, accurate and auditable.
- Use AI-assisted development tools in your day-to-day work, and help us find where AI can improve our products and the way we build them.
- Turn what works into reusable team standards such as templates, prompts and playbooks.
- Mentor engineers across the team, giving feedback that helps them grow, and share knowledge so it does not stay with one person
