Software Engineer, Internal Tools

The Product team builds features end-to-end, from designing our data models to implementing the subtle interactions that differentiate good software from great software. Supported by our infrastructure team, we work closely with UX Designers, Product Managers, and Data Scientists throughout the entire product process. We aim to delight users with both large new features and smaller, daily product enhancements — thanks to our continuous deployment architecture.

We are looking for a full-stack Software Engineer to join the Internal Tools team in our Vancouver Office. The Internal Tools team owns Asana’s internal operational tooling platform, enabling all teams to leverage real-time product data safely, consistently, and easily. Our flagship product is absolutely core to how Asana operates as a business and used daily – and loved – by hundreds of Asanas across departments ranging from Sales to Customer Support to Finance to R&D. In addition, we play a key role in growing Asana’s revenue as our tooling powers the controls and instrumentation for our Billing and Monetization platform. We own the entirety of our application stack, which includes server-side TypeScript, Flask as the application framework, and React on the front-end. In short, we are a team that has space to innovate, moves with urgency, and delivers great impact.

This role is based in San Francisco, with an office-centric hybrid schedule. The standard in-office days are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Most Asanas have the option to work from home on Wednesdays. Working from home on Fridays depends on the type of work you do and the teams with which you partner. If you're interviewing for this role, your recruiter will share more about the in-office requirements.

Responsibilities:

• Ship code as part of a high-performance, autonomous team with a strong focus on velocity, software quality and team members’ professional development.
• Lead mission-critical projects, launching capabilities end-to-end that will shape Asana’s Go-To-Market motions and catalyze its growth for years to come.
• Work cross-functionally, interfacing with a variety of Engineering teams as well as various Business functions.
• Collaborate with Product Management to understand tooling needs across the company, and with Design to create innovative solutions that address those needs.
• Partner with the Security and Privacy organizations to ensure access to production data remains secure and compliant in an ever changing landscape.
• Help define the future of operational tooling at Asana, shepherding the company away from legacy approaches and information silos to a modern, web-based platform powered by real-time data.
• Advocate for engineering best practices, mentor other engineers, and otherwise positively influence team health long-term.

You might thrive in this role if you:

• 5+ years of full-stack software development.
• Experience driving projects of high technical and/or organizational complexity autonomously and reliably, planning tasks through milestones and workstreams, coordinating the work of multiple engineers, and delivering impactful outcomes on time.
• Passion for working cross-functionally across engineering and non-engineering teams alike.
• Crisp and clear communication; polished ability to convey mental models and reason through complex technical decisions.
• Strong commitment to building scalable software with a platform-oriented approach.
• Continuous improvement mindset and a drive to enhance the architecture, the code, and team processes.
• Enthusiasm for mentoring and coaching teammates and stakeholders and contributing to team growth.
• Background in managing infrastructure and/or relevant industry experience in billing, monetization, and/or payment systems is a big plus.

At Asana, we're committed to building teams that include a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills, as this is critical to helping us achieve our mission. If you're interested in this role and don't meet every listed requirement, we still encourage you to apply.
