About the role

We are seeking a Senior Software Development Engineer II to join our Digital Innovations team at Wizards of the Coast. This role involves guiding product initiatives, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and driving innovation in digital channels for our beloved brands.

Responsibilities

• Be responsible for the technical architecture and multi-quarter roadmap for a major product area or platform.
• Partner closely with product management, design, and leadership to shape product strategy and translate business goals into technical execution.
• Champion a culture of experimentation, creating the space and guardrails for teams to take smart technical risks and learn fast from what doesn't work.
• Translate research, customer signals, and competitive insight into concrete technical innovation that creates lasting advantage for the business.
• Challenge entrenched assumptions about how we build, and lead the rethinking of systems that have outgrown their original design.
• Serve as a technical escalation point for the most complex production issues, and improve the systems and processes that prevent them from recurring.
• Raise the agentic AI bar: model effective agent workflows for software development, share patterns for instructing and validating agents, and help fellow engineers ramp up.

Requirements

• 8+ years building and shipping web products across frontend and backend.
• A track record of leading high-impact, multi-team technical initiatives from ambiguity to launch.
• Deep expertise in distributed systems, system design, and the tradeoffs involved in building for scale, reliability, and performance.
• Strong proficiency in one or more programming languages and fluency in modern software engineering practices.
• Demonstrated ability to influence technical direction across teams and to bring stakeholders to alignment through clear writing and communication.
• A bias for pragmatic, data-informed decisions and a strong sense of ownership over outcomes, not just deliverables.
• Experience mentoring engineers and elevating the technical standards of the teams you work with.
• Hands-on experience using AI agents for production delivery including validating and correcting AI-generated code.

Qualifications

• Curiosity about or knowledge of Wizards brands (e.g., Magic: The Gathering).

Skills

• Experience with both relational and non-relational databases.
