Senior Software Development Engineer
Social Networking is one of the hottest sectors on the web in recent years. MySpace.com has emerged as the definitive leader in this space and is the highest trafficked site on the Internet in less than two years since launch and we're still growing. This is a very exciting opportunity for someone who wants a fun yet fast paced environment and the ability to take their development knowledge, leadership, and innovation to the next level. The engineering team at MySpace.com focuses on performance and scalability to a degree that most engineers have never had a chance to experience.
The Seattle-based development organization is in need of Senior Software Development Engineers with demonstrated software engineering knowledge and experience in C#/.NET 2.0 technology including ASP.NET, n-tier application design and architecture, relational data modeling, and Web-based development. Use of Visual Studio.NET and development lifecycle tools such as Team Foundation Server, source repositories, build engines, defect-tracking software, and associated debugging and profiling tools are a must. Experience with designing and delivering highly available and scalable architectures are a plus. Knowledge of and practical experience with development lifecycle models using agile development practices such as Scrum is strongly preferred.
Job responsibilities will include the architecture, design, and delivery of feature-rich, Web-based components written using C# with the 2.0 .Net Frameworks using Visual Studio.NET 2005. The features will be derived from customer requirements and are manifested in product development specifications, emails, and other communications. The Senior Software Development Engineer will work across the development team and other MySpace organizations to ensure completion and timely delivery of all coding requirements within a negotiated timeframe following the Scrum agile development lifecycle model. As a senior individual contributor, all unit tests, source control management, database requirements, and associated IP will be managed and debugged by the engineer from inception through testing (including staged system) and production systems. Mentoring and design guidance of feature-based development teams will be an ongoing responsibility.

• Agile Software Development (including Scrum)
• Visual Studio 2005 (including Team System)
