The Challenge
Qualtrics is a pioneer in defining the XM software category and Customer Care is a product whose vision is to transform contact centers from mere cost centers to loyalty drivers for both customers and employees.

- Build tools and visualizations for contact centers that leverage X+O data to develop automated and personalized coaching plans for their employees
- Scale our closed loop platform to handle its rapid growth
Each team has freedom on choosing the stack on each project, allowing engineers to experiment and learn new, up and coming technologies like React, GoLang, Scala, Spark and Galera. Primarily, our stack includes React, Node.js, Java, JavaScript, MongoDB, MySQL, and Cassandra.
