The Qualtrics XM Platform™ is a system of action that helps businesses to attract customers who stay longer and buy more, to engage and empower employees to do the best work of their lives, to develop breakthrough products people love, and to build a brand people can’t imagine living without.
Joining Qualtrics means becoming part of a team bold enough to chase breakthrough experiences - like building a technology that will be a force for good. A team committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion because of a conviction that every voice holds value, with a vision for representation that matches the world around us and inclusion that far exceeds it. You could belong to a team whose values center on transparency, being all in, having customer obsession, acting as one team, and operating with scrappiness. All so you can do the best work of your career.
We believe every interaction is an opportunity. Are we yours?
The Challenge
As a Senior Software Engineer on our Actions Platform team, you will use your full-stack web experience to design and build solutions for the Qualtrics System of Action. You will need to be able to work on a relatively complex frontend application with frameworks such as Angular and React, but also be able to make skillful contributions to backend services with which these applications interact. You will own end-to-end deliverables that include contributions across the stack while sometimes focusing on just the frontend or just the backend.
The Actions Platform is a workflow automation solution that allows customers to build powerful automations to simplify their day-to-day operations and create processes that drive the most critical business objectives in a timely and accurate manner. The product is designed to be equal parts powerful and simple. It enables custom use cases for citizen developers and empowers business users to build out well defined automations in just a few clicks.
This is an opportunity to part an amazing team and be a key contributor in developing a product that is experiencing incredible growth.
