Senior Software Engineer - NodeJS/Python

The Wealth Engineering team is seeking an experienced engineer to build modern top tier application(s) by collaborating with product, engineers and designers!
The role requires an agile engineering mindset, patience and persistence to solve complex problems, ability to get things done quickly but thoughtfully, and roll up the sleeves to dig deep into technology.
You're the right fit if you're the best of the best and have yet to meet a problem you couldn't solve. We need a coder who's eager to grow but already sees things through the eyes of an architect - someone who keeps the big picture in mind no matter the task. We need a developer that always codes with performance, scalability, and concurrency in mind. We need a hacker who reads code like a book and enjoys digging into unfamiliar source, and we'd love if you were someone who can debug another's code as easily as you can debug your own.
You will be working on the systems that provide the future visions of the digital experiences for Northwestern Mutual. We need engineers who can help us mature our space and take our applications to the next level.
