Our success is reliant on building teams that include people from different backgrounds and experiences who can elevate assumptions and ideas with fresh perspectives. We're dedicated to hiring the whole human, not just a resume. To that end, we look for a diverse pool of applicants-including those from historically marginalized groups. We would like to invite you to apply even if you don't think you meet all of the requirements listed below. We don't want a few lines in a job description to get between us and the opportunity to meet you.
About the Team
The Admin Services team's mission is to enable our customers to manage their configuration at scale. Our services are at the heart of the Outreach platform, enabling and complementing pretty much every user scenario and every capability of Outreach, providing unique opportunities and challenges at every stage of the software development lifecycle.
The Role
We are expanding a newly established team in Prague and we are looking for one additional experienced backend Senior Software Engineer to be part of the mission to evolve the core services domain and to deliver even better customer experiences. You will deep-dive in challenging technical problems, build scalable solutions and identify performance bottlenecks, iterate quickly and deliver incremental value and thrive in a collaborative team environment.
Our Tech Stack
On the Back-end we are designing and implementing our new platform to follow microservices architecture patterns, with Go as the primary language, grpc APIs, PostgreSQL as the data store and Kafka as the gluing layer for eventing and messaging. We are transitioning our client-server interactions to use GraphQL.
Location
While we are remote-friendly, we remain an "office-centric" company.
