Senior Solutions Engineer
About the role
We're looking to grow our Engineering Team at NLS! Are you ready to take on complex engineering challenges and make an impact on client solutions? If you're an experienced engineer who enjoys owning technical work from design through implementation, thrives in a collaborative environment, and is excited about the future of technology, this role could be for you.
As a Senior Solutions Engineer, you'll play a key role in delivering complex client solutions within the NLS Engineering Department. You'll work with a high degree of autonomy, taking ownership of solution components and integrations from technical design through implementation and deployment. You'll collaborate with Technical Leads, project leadership, client technical teams, and other stakeholders to translate business requirements and technical designs into working, maintainable solutions. You'll also mentor Junior Engineers, participate in code reviews, and help teammates work through technical challenges.
Your technical toolkit may include C#, .NET, SQL, APIs, JavaScript/Angular, Azure, and other modern development platforms and tools. You'll work across applications, integrations, APIs, data, configurations, and supporting technical components to deliver scalable, maintainable solutions. You'll also contribute to internal innovation initiatives, develop reusable components and delivery accelerators, improve engineering practices, and explore emerging technologies—including AI-assisted development and agentic coding tools.
