What you should know about our team:

At ADT, our Product Engineering team builds technology that helps us better serve and protect our customers. We are looking for a software engineer who is excited about agentic coding and comfortable using tools such as Cursor, Claude, and MCPs to accelerate development while maintaining sound engineering judgment.

In this role, you will build scalable Java backend software and AI-enabled services deployed across ADT’s technology ecosystem. You will collaborate with Product, UX, QA, and other software engineers to turn ideas into reliable, production-ready solutions that create meaningful customer and business impact.

What you will do:

• Build scalable, production-ready Java backend software and services.
• Collaborate with Product, UX, QA, and engineering partners to turn concepts into dependable solutions.
• Develop internal and potentially customer-facing AI agents that automate processes as model capabilities evolve.
• Integrate multimodal models into product pipelines, including solutions that analyze video streams and generate machine learning-driven reports.
• Design for data storage, performance, reliability, and scalability.
• Partner with QA to create repeatable, automated validation for customer-facing capabilities.
• Troubleshoot production issues and help maintain environments with minimal disruption to customers and support teams.
• Estimate project effort and follow software development lifecycle, testing, version control, and coding best practices.

• Strong experience with Java backend development.
• Familiarity with Spring and Java application development concepts.
• Understanding of Java collections, multithreading, and unit testing fundamentals.
• Familiarity with Maven and/or Gradle preferred.
• Comfortable working in AI-assisted development environments (e.g., Cursor, Claude, MCPs, and feedback loops), while also able to independently write clean, readable code without AI assistance.
• Solid understanding of system architecture and design.
• Experience with web services (REST and/or WebSockets).
• Experience with data storage systems:
  • SQL
  • Key-value stores
  • Document databases
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS and/or GCP).
