  • You’ll investigate alerts about possible errors in our system. You’ll address outages in a timely manner in order to accomplish our technology platform SLAs.
  • You’ll work on design and architecture investigations.
  • You’ll report to the Manager, Engineering in the Enterprise Applications group within the R&D - Engineering Division.

Respect: How You'll Use Your Professional Skills

  • Help accomplish the goals of your Agile team through your design and programming skills.
  • Accurately estimate work for the sprint cycle and proactively provide updates on your status. Communicate adjustments to your estimates as you have new information in order to ensure your Product Owner can set appropriate expectations about availability of value being delivered by your team.

Where You’ll Go From Here

  • Kyruuvians in the Senior Software Engineer I role can move in a more linear career path along two tracks - individual contributor or management. From here you could become either a Principal Software Engineer I or a Manager, Engineering. From there, Kyruuvians can either become Principal Software Engineer II, then Software Architect or continue on a management path to Senior Manager, Engineering and then Director, Engineering.
  • Kyruus also loves to see an internal transfer. If a linear career path is not what you’re looking for, you can work with your manager and HR to explore lateral moves to other parts of the organization as you continue to grow with us.
