As a Backend Engineer in one of Showpad's Sales Content Management teams, you will help build innovative solutions that transform how sales content is created, organized, and distributed. You'll develop and maintain service-oriented, event-driven systems and APIs that power the work of Sales Enablement Specialists and Marketing Content Owners.
Working closely with senior engineers, you'll take ownership of well-scoped features and contribute to technical and product discussions, shaping designs that deliver real value to users. Instead of working in a monolith, you'll work within an ecosystem of microservices and play a part in improving their reliability and quality. Your work will directly influence the end-user experience for all customers, reaching 100,000 users globally.
Key responsibilities include:
- Build high-throughput, maintainable backend services and API integrations using Node.js, TypeScript, or Go
- Help implement and maintain the growing ecosystem of microservices
- Work in teams where code reviews and pair programming are part of the strong engineering culture, learning from experienced engineers and sharing knowledge
- Apply a security-first approach to features and changes
- Grow technical and architectural skills through mentoring from senior engineers, and support more junior colleagues
- Keep the bigger picture in mind as your work reaches 100,000 users globally
