What's the opportunity?At Intercom, you will be a product engineer - someone who solves real customer problems through a smart and efficient application of your technical knowledge and your tools. You'll be part of one of our multidisciplinary product teams, where you will build both back-end and front-end systems, and work closely with designers, product managers, researchers, and data analysts.
We're facing many exciting scaling challenges and we're building a robust platform where your expertise can be applied to areas such as building a beautiful messenger composer, rule matching, deliverability, security, app availability and machine learning, to name a few.
What will I be doing?As an experienced engineer you will:
Develop technical plans and contribute to our technical architecture as we scale our products to serve tens of millions of people every day.Write Ruby code, which knits together a lot of AWS, infrastructure, platform and SaaS technologies that form the core of Intercom's backend infrastructureShip a change to production on your first day and a feature in your first week. That "day one" change is automatically deployed to production along with 100 other deployments (on average) each weekdayGrow your team's capacity by mentoring other engineers and interviewing candidates. This is a chance to be an integral part of building and growing a team.What skills do I need?2+ years of industry experience in a software engineering role, preferably building a SaaS product. You can demonstrate significant impact that your work has had on the product and/or the team.Deep knowledge of a high-level programming language (for example, Ruby, Python, Javascript etc.) but it doesn't need to be a language that we use here! Great people are effective and learn what we use quickly (or introduce us to better ways of working)Experience collaborating directly with product teams and designers, and a proven track record of delivering value to customers or users.
