The Senior Software Engineer should have high-level managerial skills, in-depth knowledge of how computer systems work, programming languages, and outstanding knowledge of the agile process.
This is an individual contributor role, working closely with other senior individual contributors, who are driven by showing results as a team, rather than managing others to make things happen.
