Job Summary

As a Software Engineer on Cox Automotive's Wholesale Workflow team, you'll build and maintain features on an AI-native platform in a collaborative, cross-functional Agile/Kanban environment. You'll work closely with product owners, senior engineers, and other teams to deliver high-quality software on a best-in-class inspection platform.

Our teams are based primarily in Atlanta, GA. We value versatile, hardworking engineers with diverse skill sets who can adapt to rapid changes in the automotive and technology industries.

Primary Duties and Key Responsibilities

  • Contribute to the design and delivery of product features and system enhancements, incorporating AI-assisted development tools to improve workflow efficiency and development speed.

  • Decompose functional and business requirements into well-defined, estimable technical tasks, using both traditional and AI-enabled approaches to assess implementation complexity.

  • Write high-quality, maintainable code with comprehensive end-to-end automated tests for business-critical components, leveraging AI to assist with test generation, documentation, and refactoring.

  • Maintain quality, performance, observability, security, and specification compliance across assigned development work, using AI-supported tooling to identify vulnerabilities and code quality concerns.

  • Collaborate with engineering peers to ensure design and implementation decisions align with architectural standards and long-term platform goals.

  • Diagnose and resolve technical issues through systematic debugging, log analysis, and AI-assisted root-cause investigation.

  • Participate in modernization efforts by refactoring legacy components and supporting migration initiatives.

  • Follow and contribute to team coding standards, development patterns, and engineering best practices, including responsible use of AI in development workflows.

  • Document processes, technical designs, and implementation decisions clearly, using AI tools where appropriate to improve consistency and completeness.

  • Communicate project status, blockers, and technical considerations clearly to teammates and product stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications

  • AWS certifications is a plus.

  • Experience with or curiosity about incorporating AI into day-to-day development workflows.

  • Experience contributing to large-scale technical projects.
