全职 Senior Software Engineer 工作, 薪水, Parrot Ledger 公司招聘中 - Ricebowl

We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer who can work independently on key priority projects while contributing strategically to ministry-wide initiatives. This role requires someone who can balance immediate project delivery with building reusable capabilities that benefit the broader ministry family. The ideal candidate understands trade-offs, delivers outcomes on time, and leaves behind patterns and practices that enable other teams.

Primary Responsibilities

Strategic Technical Delivery

• Lead and deliver priority projects independently with minimal oversight, ensuring timely completion while maintaining quality standards
• Make pragmatic technical decisions that balance project timelines, scope, budget constraints, and long-term sustainability
• Navigate complex modernization efforts involving legacy systems (Java, Pega Cloud, etc)
• Identify and manage critical technical dependencies early in project lifecycles, ensuring stakeholders understand constraints and impacts on delivery timelines

Ministry Family Contribution

• Build solutions with reusability in mind - create patterns, frameworks, and infrastructure that can be leveraged across multiple ministry systems
• Document architectural decisions, implementation patterns, and lessons learned to enable knowledge sharing across teams
• Contribute to shared technical goals and continuous improvement processes across the ministry family
• Mentor and enable other engineers through code reviews, technical guidance, and establishing best practices that others can adopt

Trade-off Management & Decision Making

• Evaluate when to build custom solutions versus adopting existing platforms, considering factors like data sovereignty, operational complexity, and organizational constraints
• Balance immediate delivery needs with establishing sustainable infrastructure for future initiatives
• Navigate competing priorities between perfect solutions and pragmatic approaches that meet current needs while allowing for future evolution
• Understand and communicate the implications of technical debt, making conscious decisions about when to incur it and how to manage it

Key RequirementsTechnical Expertise

• 5+ years of software engineering experience with demonstrated progression in technical complexity and scope
• Strong foundation in software architecture, system design, and engineering best practices
• Experience with modern tech stacks relevant to government systems (e.g., Kotlin, Java, cloud platforms like GCC/AWS)
• Proven ability to work with both greenfield development and brownfield modernization projects
• Understanding of DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code, and observability

Strategic & Leadership Capabilities

• Demonstrated ability to work independently with minimal supervision while maintaining alignment with broader organizational goals
• Track record of making pragmatic technical decisions that consider business constraints, timelines, and long-term sustainability
• Experience contributing to technical strategy beyond immediate project boundaries - establishing standards, creating reusable components, or building shared infrastructure
• Ability to articulate trade-offs clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Evidence of knowledge sharing through documentation, mentorship, or establishing practices that enable other teams

Problem-Solving & Execution

• Strong analytical skills with evidence-based problem-solving approach backed by testing and validation
• Ability to identify root causes beyond surface-level symptoms (e.g., database indexing issues masked as front-end performance problems)
• Proactive in identifying technical dependencies, risks, and constraints early in project lifecycles
• Comfortable working within government constraints (security requirements, compliance needs, data sovereignty) while finding pragmatic solutions

Desired Experience (Nice-to-Have)

• Government or highly regulated industry experience with understanding of compliance, security, and governance requirements
• Experience with platform migrations or modernization initiatives (legacy system upgrades, cloud migrations, technology stack changes)
• Background in establishing technical standards or creating reusable frameworks used across multiple projects or teams
• Familiarity with grant management, social services systems, or ministry family domain knowledge

Work Environment

You will be working in a complex ministry environment characterized by:

• Multiple ongoing modernization initiatives alongside legacy system maintenance
• Diverse technology stack including Kotlin, Java, Pega, and cloud infrastructure (GCC/AWS)
• Government security and compliance requirements that shape technical decisions
• Resource constraints requiring pragmatic approaches that balance immediate needs with long-term sustainability
