Senior Designer Jobs in Springfield, MO (NOW HIRING)

We're looking to grow our Engineering Team at NLS!

Are you ready to take on complex engineering challenges and make an impact on client solutions? If you're an experienced engineer who enjoys owning technical work from design through implementation, thrives in a collaborative environment, and is excited about the future of technology, this could be the role for you.

As a Senior Solutions Engineer, you'll play a key role in delivering complex client solutions within the NLS Engineering Department. You'll work with a high degree of autonomy, taking ownership of solution components and integrations from technical design through implementation and deployment.

But this isn't just about building great technology on your own. You'll work alongside Technical Leads, project leadership, client technical teams, and other stakeholders to translate business requirements and technical designs into working, maintainable solutions. You'll also have the opportunity to share your knowledge with Junior Engineers, participate in code reviews, and help teammates work through technical challenges.

Your technical toolkit may include C#, .NET, SQL, APIs, JavaScript/Angular, Azure, and other modern development platforms and tools. You'll work across applications, integrations, APIs, data, configurations, and supporting technical components to help deliver solutions that are scalable, maintainable, and built to meet client needs.

And there's room to look beyond today's solutions, too. You'll have opportunities to contribute to internal innovation initiatives, develop reusable components and delivery accelerators, improve engineering practices, and explore emerging technologies—including AI-assisted development and agentic coding tools where appropriate.

What's in it for you? The opportunity to take ownership of challenging technical work, work directly with clients, expand your Duck Creek and insurance domain expertise, and help shape how we deliver solutions today and in the future.
