As technical leaders of the team, Sr SDE’s work efficiently and regularly deliver the right things with limited guidance. They take a long term view of team’s software and how it fits into the architecture; fix architecture deficiencies and/or propose larger projects, which may require the work of rest of the team. They understand the business impact of systems and show good judgment when making technical trade-offs between team’s short-term technology or operational needs and longterm business needs. As a key influencer in team strategy, Sr SDE’s drive mindful discussions with customers and peers. They bring perspective and provide context for current technology choices and guide future technology choices.

Sr SDE’s take ownership of team architecture, providing a system-wide view and design guidance. They drive engineering best practices (e.g., Operational Excellence, Security, Quality, etc.) and set standards. They work to resolve the root cause of endemic problems which may require them to influence software decisions made by other teams. When confronted with discordant views, they are able to find the best way forward and influence others to follow that path (build consensus).
