What's the opportunity? As a Staff Engineer, you will be a leader within the team and a strong contributor to the engineering organization. You will build both back-end and front-end systems, and work closely with designers, product managers, researchers, and data analysts. You will coach and mentor other engineers and partner closely with the Engineering Manager to develop the team and to devise technical strategy.
Learn more about our engineering culture at intercom.engineering What will I be doing? As an experienced engineer you will:
Contribute to our technical architecture as we grow. We scale to service requests from all our customers' customers. We're growing and so are they.
Care about agility as much you care for scalability and availability. Continuous deployment keeps us focused on incremental releases. Even our biggest technical achievements roll out piece by piece, feature flagged out of sight.
Contribute to all phases of software development including ideation, prototyping, design and implementation. This role has a mix of both hands-on development as well as lead/architecture work.
Play an active role in hiring, mentoring and career development of other engineers
Raise the bar for technical standards, performance, reliability, and operational excellence
What skills do I need? Ideally, you've built an exciting SaaS product in your previous roles and loved the satisfaction that comes with knowing that people around the world are using something you've created
Significant, demonstrated impact that your work has had on the product and/or the teams
Deep knowledge of a high-level programming language (for example, Ruby, Python, Perl 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)
You will have experience with Distributed systems
2+ years of experience as the primary technical leader for a team
Experience collaborating directly with product teams and designers, and a proven track record of delivering value to customers or users. Engineers at Intercom are pragmatists who work closely with others on cross-disciplinary teams and have a strong sense of product strategy.
