Programmer / Software Engineer

As a Software Engineer, you will design, develop, test, and maintain different kinds of software solutions to meet the requirements of the client using standard software engineering principles, programming languages, programming tools and technologies. Apart from this, you will test software systems for bugs/errors, debug, resolve system errors, and audit and evaluate software systems to identify the scope of improvement in the software and upgrade it accordingly.

Usually, Software Engineers specialize in a particular area of software development including operating systems, desktop applications, applications on the cloud (network of servers on the internet), web/mobile applications, database architecture, computer networks, etc. Each of these areas demands a specific set of skills and knowledge (programming languages such as Java, Python, Ruby, C, C++, HTML, development environments, various tools and technologies, etc.)

Key roles and responsibilities:

• Writing and testing code.
• Monitoring system performance.
• Testing new software and fixing bugs and errors.
• Managing the complete development lifecycle of software.
• Developing and executing project plans.
• Researching, designing, and writing new software programs.
• Upgrading existing programs by analyzing and identifying areas for modification.
• Integrating existing software products with compatible platforms for optimal efficiency.
• Maintaining existing systems by monitoring and fixing software defects/faults.
• Writing operational documentation with Technical Writers.
• Analyzing data to effectively facilitate the installation of new systems or aid the modification of existing systems.
• Applying standard Mathematical and Statistical procedures to solve complex problems.
• Working in close collaboration with clients and cross-functional departments to communicate project statuses and proposals.
• Communicating key project data to team members and fostering cohesion among teams.
• Continually updating technical knowledge and programming skills by attending in-house as well as external courses, reading manuals and experimenting with new applications/technologies.
