We are partnering with a leading global technology organisation to hire a Senior Software Engineer for its infrastructure automation engineering team in Singapore.
This is a highly hands-on engineering role focused on designing and building scalable internal applications and automation solutions that streamline complex infrastructure and operational workflows.
You will work across a variety of projects rather than being tied to a single product, taking ownership from understanding the business problem and designing the technical solution through to development, testing and delivery.
What You'll Do
- Design, build and integrate scalable applications and automation solutions for complex internal workflows.
- Take end-to-end ownership of engineering projects, from understanding business requirements and solution design through development and delivery.
- Architect efficient, scalable systems and make appropriate technical and database design decisions.
- Develop high-quality backend services and APIs using Python or other modern object-oriented programming languages.
- Build and enhance user-facing application components where required.
- Integrate information and workflows across multiple internal systems and platforms.
- Analyse and optimise code for quality, reliability, efficiency and performance.
- Identify and resolve scalability and performance issues while reducing technical debt.
- Conduct thoughtful code reviews and implement appropriate testing, rollout and monitoring practices.
- Collaborate closely with Product, Design, Operations, Infrastructure and Engineering stakeholders across global teams.
- Contribute ideas and technical recommendations across a diverse portfolio of automation projects.
What We're Looking For
- 8+ years of hands-on software development experience, ideally building large-scale web, backend, or enterprise systems.
- Strong backend engineering expertise with Python or another object-oriented stack such as Java, Go, Node.js, or PHP.
- Demonstrated experience designing and developing new systems and applications, rather than primarily supporting or maintaining existing applications.
- Strong understanding of object-oriented programming, system design, scalable architecture, and software engineering fundamentals.
- Experience building and integrating RESTful APIs/ HTTP-based services.
- Strong understanding of databases, including design and performance trade-offs.
- Proven experience delivering high-quality, reliable, and scalable production code.
- Experience independently owning significant technical initiatives or projects.
- Strong code review, testing, deployment, and monitoring practices.
- Excellent communication, documentation, and stakeholder-management skills.
Nice-to-Have
- Strong hands-on Python development experience.
- Frontend development exposure using ReactJS or NextJS and willingness to work across the stack when required.
- TypeScript, JavaScript/ES6+, HTML5 and CSS3.
- GraphQL, Redis and RDBMS experience.
- Shell scripting and workflow/ process automation experience.
- Experience with tracking or analytics technologies such as GA or GTM.
- Previous engineering experience within large-scale technology, banking/financial services, or technology consulting environments.
