Software Engineer - Back-end - Core Enterprise Capability

Why do we love building Make (and why you might, too)?

We are developers and we take it for granted that we can solve pretty much anything by writing software. But what if someone is not a developer or doesn't have access to one? Chances are that they will end up doing the same boring tasks over and over, copy-pasting data from one place to another, wasting time on low-value work instead of doing something way more impactful.

With Make, we give anyone the opportunity to build powerful automations in a way that almost feels like a game. We give anyone a chance to experience the joy of building something that just works. We turn regular people into makers.

What you’ll do

You’ll work on product areas that are key to our current and future business trajectory, focusing on areas of observability, manageability and auditability. Developing features such as the main application dashboard, in-app analytics or cross-service event management, you’ll have a chance to make a real impact for our customers and business alike.

What it means in practice:

• Becoming a part of a cross-functional product team.
• Designing and developing solutions to interesting problems, building new product features.
• Improving existing code and infrastructure to increase maintainability, performance, reliability and resiliency of our systems.
• Owning your code end-to-end, including monitoring, alerting and fixing bugs.
• Writing automated tests (unit, integration, contract, …).
• Shipping code to production.
• Automating repetitive work.
• Writing and reviewing RFCs and technical documentation.
• Reviewing and giving feedback on the work of others.
• Growing and helping others grow professionally.
• If you like, you can participate in cross-cutting initiatives and influence how engineering practices and tooling evolve at Make.
• Having fun at work :)
