Careerscape is recruiting on behalf of our client, a technology organization supporting a nationally significant and fast-paced program, for a Senior Software Engineer to join a high-performing agile team. This program injects new technology and advanced capabilities into an ongoing operational system, following DevOps best practices with robust development, test, and production environments, and executes work using the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) methodology alongside Behavior Driven Development (BDD) and test automation tooling.
Day to day, you will move between individual coding work and close collaboration with your agile team, participating in program increment planning and related ceremonies while analyzing complex system requirements and translating them into modifiable, efficient, reliable, and reusable code. You will thrive in this role if you enjoy engineering automation scripts end to end, from development through deployment to the test and production bench, and if you take pride in writing well-documented, fault-tolerant software that other developers and testers can build on.
