Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions is seeking a hands-on Senior Software Engineer to lead end-to-end solution delivery for major retail platforms.
In this role, you will own a (design, trade-offs, governance), active implementation (mentoring, code reviews, select hands-on features), and operational ownership (delivery sign-off, post-release support) of high-impact solutions, bridging business requirements to working implementations. You will drive Dual-Track Agile processes, guiding the Discovery Track for clarity and design exploration, and the Delivery Track to ensure quality, traceability, and measurable outcomes.
The ideal candidate combines deep architecture expertise with hands-on coding, practical prototyping, and AI/agent workflow integration across the software lifecycle—from analysis and design to testing, documentation, and code generation. You will mentor teams, make critical technical trade-offs, and take full accountability for delivery sign-off and post-release support.
This role requires strong retail platform domain knowledge (POS systems, store operations), cloud-native architecture experience, and fluency with generative and agentic AI tools to accelerate development while preserving architectural integrity. You will be a key driver of engineering excellence, ensuring solutions are both innovative and operationally robust.
Key Responsibilities
- Instrument and leverage AI/agentic workflows to accelerate design, prototyping, code generation, test-case creation, specification drafting, and automated validation across the software lifecycle.
- AI-assisted development oversight, ethical compliance, and integration of generative AI tools.
- Own end-to-end solution delivery across Discovery and Delivery Tracks, converting business needs into validated prototypes, formal designs, decomposed deliverables, and accepted technical implementations.
- Lead the Discovery Track under Dual-Track Agile, rapidly prototyping and demoing solutions to validate feasibility and align stakeholders before full implementation.
- Translate discovery outcomes into delivery backlog items, ensuring design intent, architecture standards, and non-functional requirements are preserved throughout implementation.
- Lead architecture design and governance across products and integrations: produce ADRs, interface contracts, data models, sequencing diagrams, migration/rollback plans, and traceability matrices.
- Serve as active technical lead in client engagements: facilitate workshops, present technical solutions, make trade-off decisions, drive approvals, and act as a subject-matter expert for assigned platform areas.
- Implement and demo reference code or critical components, applying hands-on coding in modern retail platform stacks, reviewing and approving deliverables from implementation teams.
- Define and enforce architecture standards, reusable integration patterns, and non-functional requirements (security, scalability, observability) across client solutions.
- Mentor and upskill engineers and architects on AI-assisted development, Dual-Track workflows, specification-driven design, and platform best practices.
- Contribute to platform and portfolio strategy, identifying reusable assets, API-first designs, and gaps requiring investment.
- Own risk analysis and mitigation for architecture decisions, including backward compatibility, data integrity, and compliance constraints.
Must-Have Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent experience.
- Applying and utilizing AI-assisted tools and workflows (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code) for design, coding, test generation, and documentation.
- 10+ years of professional software development experience, including recent hands-on coding and prototyping in modern technology stacks.
- 6+ years designing cloud-native, microservices, or event-driven architectures, with experience in Azure or equivalent cloud platforms.
- Familiarity with technology stack such as Java/Spring Boot, TypeScript, React/Vue
- Proven experience owning end-to-end solution delivery, including design, implementation, and post-release operational accountability for medium-to-large projects.
- Hands-on experience building prototypes or reference implementations to validate architecture and solution feasibility.
- Strong experience with REST/OpenAPI, messaging platforms, and relational/non-relational databases (SQL/NoSQL).
- Hands-on proficiency with CI/CD, containerization, Docker, Kubernetes, deployment tooling, automated testing, and AI/agentic workflows to accelerate the software lifecycle.
- Practical experience with generative AI and AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor) with measurable impact on delivery.
- Excellent stakeholder communication skills, able to facilitate workshops, present technical solutions, and collaborate across business and engineering teams.
- Proven leadership in mentoring engineers, conducting code reviews, and enforcing architecture governance, promoting best practices across teams.
Preferred Qualifications
- Strong retail platform domain knowledge (POS systems, store operations) is highly desirable.
- Certifications such as Azure Solutions Architect or equivalent cloud credentials.
- Strong understanding of advanced security best practices and compliance requirements in enterprise systems.
- Experience leading Dual-Track Agile processes, managing both Discovery and Delivery Tracks, and translating discovery outcomes into actionable backlog items.
- Experience contributing to platform strategy, reusable assets, and API-first designs.
- Expertise in formal or machine-readable specifications (OpenAPI, UML+OCL, TLA+, or equivalent) to guide implementation and enable automated validation.
