Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Shure is a global manufacturer of audio equipment, including microphones, headphones, wireless audio systems, and conferencing systems. The Senior Engineer, Application Systems Development will own complex technical problems across cloud services, APIs, event-driven systems, web applications, IoT infrastructure, and device-edge systems while designing, implementing, and operating production software. The role also involves technical leadership, mentoring, cross-functional collaboration, and improving architecture and engineering practices.

Responsibilities

• Own complex features and technical problems across the system, including cloud services, APIs, event-driven systems, web applications, IoT infrastructure, and occasionally the device edge
• Turn loosely defined product or customer needs into technically detailed solutions. Understand the underlying problem, identify constraints, evaluate alternatives, challenge assumptions where necessary, and drive designs through implementation and production
• Exercise sound product and engineering judgment. Look for elegant solutions, reduce unnecessary complexity, and maximize the work not done while still solving the customer's actual problem
• Lead technical work through influence rather than authority by creating clarity, coordinating across engineers and teams, and helping the group converge on good decisions
• Raise the effectiveness of the engineers around you through thoughtful code and design reviews, mentoring, pairing, technical discussion, and knowledge sharing
• Work closely with Product, QA, firmware, security, operations, and other engineering teams
• Communicate technical decisions and trade-offs clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences
• Build software that can be operated successfully in the real world. Consider observability, failure modes, security, performance, cost, maintainability, and deployment strategy as part of the design rather than as afterthoughts
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of our architecture, development practices, tooling, and engineering culture

Skills

• A BS degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field
• 6+ years professional software engineering experience and a track record of independently owning substantial technical problems from initial investigation through production
• Strong software engineering fundamentals and the ability to become productive in unfamiliar technologies, codebases, and parts of the stack
• Experience designing, building, and operating production distributed systems or cloud applications
• Sound technical judgment. You can distinguish essential complexity from accidental complexity, make appropriate trade-offs, and move forward without requiring perfect information
• Demonstrated ownership and initiative, with the ability to identify problems, create clarity, make decisions within scope, and drive work forward
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain complex systems, facilitate technical decisions, and respectfully challenge assumptions or direction when you believe there is a better approach
• The ability and willingness to remain hands-on while helping other engineers succeed
• Strong debugging and systems-thinking skills. When an abstraction, framework, or automated tool stops working, you can reason about what is happening underneath it
• Applicants for this position must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis
• A Master's degree is a plus
• AWS or comparable public cloud platforms, particularly cloud-native architectures built around managed services
• IoT or connected-device systems, including the realities of operating fleets of physical devices (intermittent connectivity, state synchronization, eventual consistency, idempotency, device identity, provisioning, certificate lifecycle, OTA updates, and fleet-scale observability)
• Production experience with TypeScript, Node.js, or comparable modern application-development technologies
• Event-driven architectures, asynchronous workflows, message-oriented systems, and managed cloud data services
• Infrastructure as code and automated cloud infrastructure management
• Customer-facing surfaces, such as modern front-end frameworks (Angular, React, or comparable) and API design across GraphQL, REST, WebSockets, MQTT, or similar protocols
• Production observability, incident investigation, distributed tracing, structured logging, and operational troubleshooting
• Embedded C or C++, or enough familiarity with embedded systems to work effectively across the firmware and cloud boundary
• Mentoring engineers or informally leading small groups or technical initiatives

Benefits

• Comprehensive healthcare
• Mental health plans
• Retirement savings plans
• Generous paid time off programs
• Employee discounts
• Professional development opportunities
• Work-life balance initiatives
• Employee recognition programs
• Volunteering/community involvement opportunities
• Flexible work arrangements
• Remote work
