The Software Engineer will perform software development lifecycle (SDLC) activities as a member of an Agile development team building a large, complex enterprise system. Development includes the full range of turning Agile user stories into implementable concepts, through development, unit testing, integration and testing, and deployment of the new capabilities for the large complex enterprise system. Following the Behavior-driven Development (BDD) pattern, developers are responsible for implementing robust testing leveraging DevOps automation and, where appropriate, the use of test automation commercial tools. There is a range of opportunities for server-side business logic implementation as well as client web application and user interface (UI) development.

The Software Engineer will be responsible for software development activities both individually and as a member of an Agile team. The Software Engineer will actively participate in daily stand-ups, Sprint Planning, Program Increment (PI) Planning, and other related team activities. The individual will analyze and study complex system requirements, use design software tools, provide support using formal specifications, data flow diagrams, and other accepted design techniques, and will use sound software engineering principles to ensure that developed code is modifiable, efficient, reliable, understandable, fault-tolerant, and reusable. She/he will provide software process management and control throughout the coding portion of the software development process and will promote code reuse and cross-program collaboration while reducing maintenance costs by creating common functions and shared actions for developers and testers. She/he will engineer, author, tune, and document automation scripts in a development environment and deploy to the test/production bench.
