We're working with an established software company to find a Senior Product Engineer who will help build and scale a platform used daily by a large customer base.

Responsibilities as a Senior Product Engineer:
- Build, maintain and scale platform-level back-end services that support data and product capabilities across the business
- Ship new features across the core product suite, taking them from design through to delivery

- Drive test coverage and reliability through advanced automated testing and Test-Driven Development
- Keep code quality high through thorough, constructive code reviews and well-architected, scalable design
- Mentor mid-level and junior engineers through pairing, reviews and team learning sessions
