Hiring: Senior Engineer, Application Systems Development Company: Shure Location: Niles, IL Job Posted Time: 2026-09-10 10:30:00 Employment Type: Full-time / Remote Target Skills & Keywords : API Design, AWS, Angular, C++, Design System, Embedded Systems, Event-Driven, Firmware, GraphQL, Infrastructure as Code, Node.js, REST, React, TypeScript, WebSocket About the job Experience: •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. Required Skills: •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. Qualifications: •A BS degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field. A Master’s degree is a plus. •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. •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. Compensation: •$115,600 - $185,000 / year •Flexible work environment (work from home / hybrid options) Interested candidates, please apply directly through the job posting on company's career page or try via AI auto apply on this platform.
