The Opportunity
As a Software Engineer, you are more than just a coder. In addition to your software engineering responsibilities, you are also encouraged to be a planning consultant to the project managers, recommending improvements to our engineering practices and helping other specialists become more proficient in solving specific problems.

• Develop new features using our innovative technologies that will encourage and excite marketers, IT professionals, and other knowledge workers globally.

• Build engineering designs that address sophisticated problems and perform at a mass scale when thousands upon thousands of people are using it at the same time.

• Debate the efficient design and ideal user experience for a variety of unrealized features identified by our Product friends or propose some ideas of your own!

• Lead technical discussions about what emerging tools, technologies, and processes are coming that may impact how we improve our products and our SaaS platform in the future.

• Demonstrate sound knowledge of Database basics such as joins, constraints, stored procedures, triggers, and schema design.

• Attest that you can take a problem and represent it in an Object-Oriented Design while calling out assumptions, discussing design alternatives, and considering non-functional requirements of the system (e.g. Performance, Maintainability etc.).

• Demonstrate a high level of ownership for the entire SDLC; including design, build, validation, deployment, and support of production systems.
