About You

• You love building. You have at least 3 years of experience as a Software Engineer building distributed, scaleable web-applications. You have a solid understanding of the software development foundation. You have strong proficiency with full-stack languages such as Typescript, React, Python, REST APIs, GraphQL, and backend frameworks such as Django. You enjoy solving problems end-to-end. Zapier is built on Python, Django, React, Node.js and AWS.  We use modern tools, which means you’ll have the opportunity to work with software like Next.js, Vercel, Avro, RabbitMQ, Docker, GitLab and Redis.
• You love running experiments. You’re like a scientist who likes to come up with a hypothesis, develop multiple solutions, and rapidly experiment on them to evaluate their success. You care deeply about the results of the experiments and whether they drive business impact for our customers. These include a combination of bold changes and smaller improvements. You are familiar with A/B testing and you have experience working with feature flag system such as Split or LaunchDarkly to perform experimentation.  
• You are data-informed.  You love metrics. You like to use data to help inform and evaluate product, engineering, and team solutions. You know how to gather data and have working knowledge of SQL. You have a good understanding of how eventing system, logging system such as Sentry, Datadog, Graylog, and data analytics tools such as Looker and Amplitude work.  
• You excel when working on a team. You enjoy being part of a team that solves problems together, collaborating on ideas, and working to meet team goals. You like pairing up with teammates when someone gets blocked. You give and accept feedback professionally and don’t let ego get in the way of delivering the best solution for the customer. You can summarize technical concepts effectively as you work with people from disciplines outside of engineering.
• You embrace service ownership. You appreciate the speed and autonomy a team has when it owns its services. You also know ownership comes with the responsibility to monitor your team’s services and make sure they are reliable and performant.
• You care about the 'why' more than the 'what'. Your approach to engineering isn't just about ticking boxes or following directives. You deeply value clarity and purpose in your work. If priorities seem nebulous or not optimized, you're confident and proactive in seeking clarity, ensuring that the team's efforts align with the broader vision. Misalignments don't escape your keen eye, and you're quick to flag them, ensuring that the team remains on a coherent and impactful trajectory.
• You love learning. Engineering is an ever-evolving world. You enjoy exploring areas that you might not have experience with yet. You have a balanced approach to adopting new tech vs using well-understood patterns.
• You value our values. At Zapier, our values are at the heart of how we work together and how we think about our customers. In our remote setting, they help develop trust and ensure we work and collaborate together to democratize automation. You see how these values can empower meaningful work, you thrive in a collaborative, fast-paced setting, you are eager to continue growing and you’re excited to be part of the team.
