Software Engineer Public Safety Cloud Integrations

Description

Are you energized by building cloud-native software that supports real-world, mission-critical work? At Tyler Technologies, we help Public Safety professionals make better, faster, and more informed decisions. We’re hiring a Software Engineer to help enable secure data sharing across our Public Safety platform.

In this role, you’ll build data integration services and cloud-native applications that use AWS serverless technology to connect critical workflows across agencies and provide access to distributed data. You’ll join a highly collaborative team of experienced engineers responsible for supporting key existing applications while modernizing them and delivering new capabilities in a cloud-first ecosystem.

Responsibilities

• Partner with product managers and engineers to design and deliver reliable software that meets user needs and system requirements.
• Build secure, scalable, and resilient services using modern cloud patterns (e.g., event-driven architecture, serverless, microservices).
• Write high-quality, well-tested code and contribute to strong CI/CD practices.
• Participate in design discussions, architecture decisions, and code reviews.
• Improve operational readiness through observability, logging, monitoring, and performance tuning.
• Contribute across the full software lifecycle: planning, development, deployment, and ongoing support.

Qualifications (Required)

General Software Engineering

• 3+ years of professional software development experience.
• Ability to work in a collaborative, iterative delivery model (plan → build → deploy → support).
• Proficiency with GitHub and CI/CD using GitHub Actions.
• Proficiency in a modern programming language (e.g., C#, Java, Python) and ability to produce clean, maintainable production code.

AWS Serverless Development

• Experience building and operating AWS cloud-native, serverless, event-driven services in production.
• Familiarity with AWS security, operations, and infrastructure-as-code (e.g., IAM, CDK/SAM/CloudFormation).

API Development and Use

• Experience designing, implementing, and consuming REST APIs using JSON request/response patterns.
• Ability to work within an established API style and update OpenAPI specifications.
• Familiarity with Public Safety API standards and conventions.

AI Use

• Experience using Claude Code (or similar AI coding tools) and validating outputs prior to merge/deploy.

Testing

• Experience writing unit and integration tests aligned to team patterns.
• Ability to diagnose and resolve common test failures and CI/CD pipeline issues.

Other

• Ability to successfully pass a CJIS-compliant fingerprint background check.

Nice to Have

• Experience with Angular and TypeScript.
• Experience with Jest and Playwright.
