Location: Oakland, CA (hybrid, in office at least two days per week)

We're looking for a Backend Engineer to join our team and help build out our Core Product, APIs, and SDKs that will allow Dopt users to collaboratively build growth journeys.

About the team

Our founding team is collectively EPD (Engineering, Product, Design). We met as early hires at a startup (Trifacta) building a data preparation tool, working together for over four years to scale the company from 20 to over 200 employees. We've since fanned out, gaining experience across a number of relevant domains: product analytics (Amplitude), two-sided marketplaces (Patreon), and productivity software (Dropbox, Productboard). We are builders, we've built products and teams from the ground up.

What will set you up for success

• You have multiple years of experience working in statically typed and compiled languages
• You've contributed to the development of large web applications and some exposure to modern FE technologies e.g. Javascript/Typescript and React
• Experience working with tools like Kafka and/or data-streaming services
• You are passionate about developer experience and tooling
• You follow the insights as opposed to worshipping the rules (practicality > dogmatism)
• You can distill simple solutions from complex requirements (e.g. KISS design principle)
• You're excited to contribute across the stack, from work on our API/SDKs to developer docs and rich UIs
• You're motivated by having a hand in shaping the direction of the company, product, and culture

What you'll be doing in this role

• Developing our public APIs
• Contributing to our open source SDKs that makes it easy for developers to work with our API
• Building our core product, the focal point of which is a collaborative flow building experience
• Developing our event ingestion and aggregation pipeline
• Connecting with the customer
