About the position
As a software engineer on our integrations team, you'll play a key role in building the data enrichments that are core to our product. You'll be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining our 100+ integrations that customers rely on every day. You will think like a customer to structure the data in a usable, flexible, and consistent way, applying critical thinking and creativity for each new integration. You'll also have the chance to contribute to the scalability and functionality of our integration framework and infrastructure, including our authorization, rate limiting and queueing systems for integrations. This is an opportunity to ship code daily that directly unlocks new customer use cases.
Responsibilities
- Design & ship new integrations with data providers who range from well-documented REST APIs to hand-rolled custom data solutions, webhooks and SQL databases.
- Collaborate with our external data provider partners to define requirements for integrations, give feedback on their APIs, and ensure a good end-user experience, with support of our partnerships team.
- Improve the integrations framework and infrastructure. You'll improve the full-stack integrations system components such as account authorization, rate limiting and request queueing, and data file ingestion.
- Work cross-functionally with other teams in engineering, partnerships, customer success, and sales to understand customer needs, respond to feedback, and measure success.
- Debug and improve existing integrations.
Requirements
- You have extensive experience with APIs, either building integrations with 3rd party APIs or building public APIs of your own.
- You have a proven track record of execution. You have 4+ years of hands on software engineering experience building world-class products and shipping quickly.
- You love making complicated concepts simple. As an integrations engineer, you'll think like the customer to transform complex, nuanced, and sometimes messy input data into easy to use and consistent formats.
- You are an empathetic communicator. You express nuanced ideas clearly at different levels of abstraction for different audiences. In disagreements, you prioritize curiosity over confrontation, making sure everyone feels heard and understood.
- You're familiar with our current tech stack or can learn unfamiliar technologies quickly. For integrations the primary stack is Typescript, Node.js, AWS Lambda, and React.
Nice-to-haves
- You understand sales and marketing workflows and are familiar with sales and marketing APIs.
Benefits
- Competitive salary and role trajectory: Roles, responsibilities, and comp grow as we do.
- Health insurance: Fully funded, high quality health, dental & vision coverage (including 80-100% therapy coverage).
- Visa sponsorship: We get it - it's an arduous process, but we're not scared of it.
- Paid time off: We expect team members to take at least 3 weeks fully-disconnected per year, with a flexible vacation policy beyond that.
- Free lunch: Lunch is provided in office every day.
- Parental leave & fertility support: IVF fertility benefits, egg freezing, and 4 months of paid parental leave.
