Why you’ll love working here:

As leaders in enterprise customer conversations, we celebrate diversity, empowering our team to forge impactful conversations globally. LivePerson is a place where uniqueness is embraced, growth is constant, and everyone is empowered to create their own success. And, we're very proud to have earned recognition from Fast Company, Newsweek, and BuiltIn for being a top innovative, beloved, and remote-friendly workplace. 

Belonging at LivePerson:

We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to age, ancestry, color, family or medical care leave, gender identity or expression, genetic information, marital status, medical condition, national origin, physical or mental disability, protected veteran status, race, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, or any other characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations and ordinances. We also consider qualified applicants with criminal histories, consistent with applicable federal, state, and local law.

We are committed to the accessibility needs of applicants and employees. We provide reasonable accommodations to job applicants with physical or mental disabilities. Applicants with a disability who require reasonable accommodation for any part of the application or hiring process should inform their recruiting contact upon initial connection.

We are currently expanding our Application Platform team and we are looking for a Senior Backend Software Engineer. The Application Platform team is at the heart of the organization and builds the platform that enables our engineers to deliver new features more effectively and efficiently. The salary starts at €3,500  gross per month, along with stock options and other benefits. Working in our Bloomreach offices or from home on a full-time basis, you'll become a core part of the Engineering team.

Why should you join us?

• Wide and high impact – we build systems that are used by other developers or our customers. Sometimes both. 
• Sculpting the product– we work in close cooperation with the product team so you can shape the final product.
• Build it and run it – we are in charge of running and maintenance of our software. That allows us to design it properly and it also brings interesting challenges. 
• Innovation at the core – since we build the platform for other engineers, we also drive innovation in the engineering organization and decide which tools to adopt.

Our stack

• Python & Go (In 90% cases, we use Python)
• MongoDB, Redis, Apache Kafka
• Kubernetes (GKE)
• Various Google Cloud Platform services (Pub/Sub, BigTable, DataFlow, ...)
• Cloudflare workers
• Gitlab CI/CD, Prometheus and Grafana

What would your day look like?

You start your day with a code review of your colleague’s tasks while sipping a cup of fresh-brewed tea or coffee, looking for any signs of problems and possible optimizations. Then you join your teammates on a quick daily sync to figure out technical challenges, discuss design proposals or just chat with the colleagues. 

After the meeting, you get into “the zone” and spend a few undisturbed hours working on the new authentication framework while making sure it’s safely covered by a suite of unit tests. With a few clicks you quickly spin up a brand new instance of the system in the development cluster, deploy your change and notify the frontend engineer that it’s ready.

You grab a snack and take a little break from coding. Instead, you help a fellow backend engineer from another team figure out the best way to integrate their new service with the audit logging platform. In the meantime the frontend engineer gets back to you and confirms that all the new endpoints work as expected, so you create a merge request and ask your teammates for a code review. It’s a complex piece of code, so you go through it together.

After your code is approved, you merge it, automatically deploying it to the staging environment where it receives further testing by the QA team and automated integration tests before being released to production.

Still interested? You can work remotely or from one of our local offices. The salary starts at €3,500 based on your experience level.

Your responsibilities

• Designing the overall structure of the software system, ensuring that it meets the user's requirements and can be efficiently developed and maintained.
• Mentoring of junior members of the team
• Implementation of product features
• Maintaining high quality standards of systems and providing critical and constructive feedback on the code and designs.

What do we expect from you

• At least 3 year experience developing in Python or Golang
• Designing and implementing production-grade REST APIs 
• Experience using (not operating) database systems of different kinds (for example, MongoDB, Redis, Apache Kafka)
• Having experience with operating services in production is beneficial
• Ability to guide and shape rough product ideas into tangible product features

OUR COMPANY VALUES

Live & breathe learners

We deeply understand and empathize with our users. We leverage user insights, research, and experience to build content, products, services, and experiences that our users trust and love. Our success is defined by the success of our learners and educators.

Take a stand

As a company, we have conviction in our aspirational point of view of how education will evolve. The work we do is in service to moving towards that point of view. However, we also listen, learn and flex in the face of new data, and commit to evolving this point of view as the industry and our users evolve.

Embrace diverse perspectives

We are a diverse community. We seek out and embrace a diversity of voices, perspectives and life experiences leading to stronger, more inclusive teams and better outcomes. As individuals, we are committed to bringing up tough topics and leaning into different points of view with curiosity. We actively listen, learn and collaborate to gain a shared understanding. When a decision is made, we commit to moving forward as a united team.

Work responsibly and sustainably

We understand that achieving our audacious mission is a marathon, so we set realistic timelines and we focus on delivery that also links to the bigger picture. As a non-profit, we are supported by the generosity of donors as well as strategic partners, and understand our responsibility to our finite resources. We spend every dollar as though it were our own. We are responsible for the impact we have on the world and to each other. We ensure our team and company stay healthy and financially sustainable.

Bring out the joy

We are committed to making learning a joyful process. This informs what we build for our users and the culture we co-create with our teammates, partners and donors.

Cultivate learning mindset

We believe in the power of growth for learners and for ourselves. We constantly learn and teach to improve our offerings, ourselves, and our organization. We learn from our mistakes and aren’t afraid to fail. We don't let past failures or successes stop us from taking future bold action and achieving our goals.

Deliver wow

We insist on high standards and deliver delightful, effective end-to-end experiences that our users can rely on. We choose to focus on fewer things — each of which aligns to our ambitious vision — so we can deliver high-quality experiences that accelerate positive measurable learning with our strategic partners.
