Software Engineer II

Overview

Software Engineer II on the HRS Platform Team, responsible for coding, testing and implementing products for a Web + AI-based enterprise application, with a focus on agentic and AI-driven engineering.

What you'll do

• Review functional and technical requirements, perform research, design solutions and develop code in a variety of programming languages.
• Design, build, test and ship full-stack features in C#/.NET, ASP.NET Core Web APIs, SQL and a modern web front end.
• Write code that meets design specifications, follows team standards, and is easy to maintain.
• Write or contribute to design documents, and join design sessions and code reviews.
• Use AI-assisted and agentic development tools in daily work, including code generation, coding agents, AI code review and test generation.
• Get reliable, production-quality output from agentic tools through context engineering: agent instructions, skills, repo conventions and guardrails.
• Coach teammates on effective and responsible AI tool use, including review discipline, security and data-handling rules.
• Build and integrate LLM features into Tracker I-9, such as document extraction, RAG, agents and tool use, using Azure OpenAI and related Azure AI services.
• Add observability, evaluation and cost and latency monitoring to AI features, and ensure they meet compliance, privacy and security requirements for employee PII.
• Do unit, automation and peer testing so features ship fully tested.
• Ship through CI/CD on Azure DevOps, and help improve pipelines and engineering processes.
• Document your work and give demos, training sessions and presentations when needed.
• Work with product, QA, hosting, infrastructure and DBA teams so project requirements are met.
• Recommend refactoring, process improvements, tools and new AI-driven development practices.

What you'll need

• 3+ years of professional software development, mostly in C# and .NET (.NET Core).
• Strong object-oriented design, design patterns and SOLID principles.
• ASP.NET Core and MVC, building RESTful Web APIs, and validation libraries such as FluentValidation.
• 3+ years of SQL and relational databases (Azure SQL / SQL Server), including query tuning, plus an ORM such as Entity Framework Core or Dapper.
• Front-end development with HTML, CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript and a modern framework.
• Cloud development on Microsoft Azure: App Service, Functions, Storage, Key Vault and Managed Identity.
• CI/CD and Git on Azure DevOps (Repos, Pipelines, Boards).
• Unit testing and mocking with NUnit or xUnit and Moq or NSubstitute.
• Familiarity with test automation.
• Authentication and security protocols, including OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect, and secure coding practices (OWASP).
• Hands-on use of AI-assisted engineering tools such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot or similar in your normal workflow, with the ability to explain specifically how they changed the way you design, code, test and debug.
• Understanding of how to manage agent instructions, skills, context and guardrails to get consistent, production-quality results from agentic tools.
• At least one shipped project where AI-assisted development clearly sped up delivery or improved quality.
• Strong logical reasoning, predictable delivery, and clear written and spoken communication.

Nice to have

• Angular for the front-end framework.
• Experience with Bootstrap and jQuery for legacy modules.
