About the role:

Senior Engineers deliver large projects and work in crucial product areas. Using your experience, you guide other members of your delivery team and help remove blockers. Others seek you out for expert technical guidance. You mentor and build the team's productivity and efficiency. You build complex and reusable architectures, pioneering best practices that enable engineers to work effectively. You have a consistent record of strong leadership in your (technical) domain. 

Your contribution will be:  

  • You suggest multiple viable design and architectural approaches for any given problem. 
  • You clearly communicate the risks, advantages, pros, and cons for each approach in design, architectural, and technical matters. 
  • You make good, fact-based and well-informed decisions around technical debt and trade-offs. 
  • You translate rough ideas into clear executable technical plans with discrete tasks. 
  • You find ways to deliver scope faster and facilitate prioritizing the backlog accordingly. 
  • You tackle technical debt proactively. 
  • You are a trusted resource for de-escalation of conflicts and build consensus between team members. 
  • You attend and contribute to team ceremonies and meetings (daily scrum meetings, planning meetings, demos, and development retrospective meetings).   
  • You model expected behaviors in all ceremonies and meetings. 
  • You communicate progress to the team and delivery manager regularly and seek guidance when required. 
  • You regularly contribute new ideas and maintain focus on continual improvement. 
  • You are an active part of the incident management process, including on-call rotation and unblocking technical and operational decisions. 
  • You promote our culture through the Nintex tenets.

To be successful, we think you need:  

  • 5-7+ years software engineering experience
  • Strong FE skills using React and JavaScript
