Sr. Software Engineer

Position Overview

We are seeking an exceptionally senior Software Engineer , a proven individual contributor who consistently delivers complex, high-impact work with minimal oversight. This role is designed for engineers who already operate at a staff or principal execution level , not for those growing into seniority, seeking mentorship, or looking for a career steppingstone.

This is a hands-on, delivery-focused role . While architectural direction will largely be established by an existing software architect, you will be expected to execute within those architectural guardrails , independently driving complex workstreams from loosely defined requirements through production release, without inflating scope, requiring heavy direction, or compromising quality .

You will take ambiguous product and business needs and turn them into clear, scoped, production-ready implementations . Success in this role requires sound engineering judgment, disciplined prioritization, strong ownership, and the ability to move fast without creating unnecessary complexity.

If you have not previously owned meaningful production systems end-to-end , executed independently at a high bar, or been accountable for long-term technical outcomes , this role will not be a fit.

NOTE – This is a hybrid role requiring three days per week onsite in South Bend, Indiana (Tuesday–Thursday).

Essential Duties & Responsibilities :

• Independently execute complex backend and full-stack engineering initiatives supporting Aunalytics’ analytics and insights platforms
• Deliver high-impact workstreams end-to-end with minimal oversight, from scoping through production and operational support
• Operate within established architecture while contributing pragmatic improvements through collaborative design discussions
• Translate loosely defined requirements into well-scoped, maintainable technical solutions without expanding scope unnecessarily
• Make senior-level technical tradeoffs balancing delivery speed, reliability, scalability, security, and long-term maintainability
• Lead large technical initiatives through execution , not process overhead or delegation
• Maintain a high bar for code quality, system integrity, and operational reliability through reviews and disciplined engineering practices
• Proactively identify technical risks and debt , driving practical remediation that aligns with business priorities
• Contribute to engineering standards and best practices through example and influence
• Mentor engineers informally through strong technical leadership and execution , not micromanagement
• Introduce new tools or technologies only where they deliver clear, measurable value
