Role

We are looking for an experienced principal-level back-end software engineer who can deep-dive on challenging technical problems, build scalable solutions and identify performance bottlenecks, iterate quickly and deliver incremental value and thrives in a collaborative team environment.

About the Team

At the core of any sales organization is the ability to know what to do, when to do it, and who should be performing the activities that lead to successful customer engagement.

The Orchestration and Task Flow Team’s mission is to enable our customers to successfully execute on these goals. The Orchestration front-end provides our users with tools to create, modify, and manage sequences and their embedded features: the schedules, events, and action definitions that make things go. The Orchestration Service provides the automation and intelligence to keep track of when a task is due, who it assigned to and gather intelligence about emails as they are delivered and received. We provide data driven insights from machine learning systems to help our customers take the optimal next step. At the end of the day, our team enables our customers to answer the question “How can organizations engage their prospects predictably, efficiently, and with the greatest impact?”

The fundamental challenges we’re solving next are for accurate scheduling, monitoring of background tasks and execution, and helping users develop new tasks, flows, and assembling them into more advanced workflows all while keeping the system reliable and scalable as our user continues to double every year. Customers need insight into why something happened or why it didn’t, they need to see who they’re reaching and how often, and they need to understand what takes them a step closer to increase their chances of success. The Orchestration system provides that insight.
