Software Engineer II, ITC

WHO YOU'LL WORK WITH

The Engineering Excellence team is a collaborative, high-growth environment working with engineers, product managers, and DevOps practitioners across Nike Global Technology. This role reports to Senior Director and sits within the CI/CD and Platform Tooling squad, contributing to Nike's developer tools consolidation initiative.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

Nike is looking for a Software Engineer II who brings solid foundational engineering skills, a strong growth mindset, and a genuine passion for developer tooling and automation. The successful candidate writes quality code, learns fast, and is energized by working on systems that have broad organizational impact. This role is for someone who wants more than a feature team - someone who cares about how software is built, deployed, and maintained across a large engineering organization. Experience with CI/CD pipelines, source control platforms, or DevOps tooling is a strong advantage. More than specific skills, Nike is looking for curiosity, drive, and the desire to build things right.

• 2-4 years of software engineering experience; Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent combination of education, experience or training
• Working proficiency in Java, Node.js, Golang, React, or JavaScript with experience building functional, maintainable software in a team environment
• Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS preferred), containerization fundamentals, and version control workflows using GitHub or equivalent
• Familiarity with CI/CD concepts, build pipelines, or DevOps tooling is a strong plus
• Collaborative mindset, strong communication skills, and demonstrated ability to deliver results in an agile engineering team

• Build and ship features for Nike's CI/CD platform consolidation - developing GitHub Actions workflows, pipeline tooling, and build automation that improves delivery speed and reliability for engineering teams globally
• Contribute to the migration of legacy build and deployment tools onto unified platform infrastructure, replacing fragmented systems with clean, well-architected solutions
• Develop integrations between GitHub, artifact management systems, and downstream deployment pipelines as part of Nike's developer tools simplification effort
• Write reliable, well-tested code that handles real-world engineering scenarios - build failures, dependency conflicts, deployment edge cases - and gets shipped to production
• Participate in code reviews and technical discussions with senior engineers, contributing ideas and developing your instinct for what good platform code looks like
• Support the creation of automation scripts, tooling utilities, and developer productivity features that directly reduce friction for engineers across Nike's global technology organization
