Our success is dependent on building teams that include people from different backgrounds and experiences who can challenge each other’s assumptions with fresh perspectives. To that end, we look for a diverse pool of applicants including those from historically marginalized groups — women, people with disabilities, people of color, people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and/or gender nonconforming, first and second generation immigrants, veterans, and people from different socioeconomic backgrounds.

Role

We are looking for an experienced back-end Software Engineer who is interested in becoming a key player on a highly collaborative, productive and fun team working on bringing a newer product offering at Outreach from 1 to 100. 

About the Team

Outreach Success Plans provide a new way for buyers and sellers to collaborate via a transparent, joint plan. Success Plans create a hub for all the important information exchanged during a deal cycle. Our software provides both an easier process for the buyer and seller to conduct a deal while simultaneously providing new and valuable data insights to the revenue operations team. The Success Plans Services team owns the back-end infrastructure and service for this product. Our mission is to provide fast, reliable communication tools for buyers and sellers alike and to collect and analyze the data rich insights created by those interactions. This team has exciting challenges in store. Success plans are a newer part of the Outreach platform and therefore we have the opportunity to learn from our early customers and shape this into a product that becomes the standard for B2B transactions. In addition we are tasked with integrating this product thoughtfully into the rest of the Outreach platform. We’ll do this while adopting Outreach and industry best practices to ensure our software is truly enterprise grade. 

Your Daily Adventures Will Include

• Working in a modern internet stack. We deploy on Kubernetes for production and even have a custom-built dev environment to use Kubernetes for local development.

• Partnering closely with the user experience (front-end) team to deliver game changing features
• Helping us keep customer trust by keeping the quality bar high by delivering well tested code

• Keeping up-to-date with new developments in distributed software systems and continually working to improve team practices and overall engineering rigor and quality

Basic Qualifications

• Experience with building distributed systems with a cloud service-oriented architecture
• Great communication skills, you will collaborate closely with other engineers, product managers and other stakeholders

• Familiar with continuous deployment environments
• Deep understanding of reliability and performance monitoring tools and techniques
