Your opportunity
At New Relic, we are an equal opportunity employer whose foundation was built on empathy and authenticity. We love making tools for software and ops engineers. Our software helps customers answer their most important questions by allowing them to visualize, explore, and reason about their ops, applications, and customer data. Maintain a work-life balance that enables you to thrive by using unlimited flex time-off, twelve weeks of paid parental leave, and our volunteer time off program!

New Relic is at the center of a critical part of today's software industry, observability of distributed systems, and Alerts is critical for monitoring distributed systems. Observability of these systems is by no means a solved problem—it's a relatively young field, full of interesting challenges and potential.

As a Software Engineer II on the New Relic Alerts team, you will be a critical contributor to the future of New Relic Alerting. You will join a focused team that is empathetic to our customers, and to one another. Our Products help engineers detect, understand, and resolve incidents faster and find insights in their data that would otherwise go unnoticed. 

You will be responsible for the foundation of our customers’ alerting experience through building exciting new alerting features. 

What you'll do
  • Work collaboratively on a team using agile practices to ship software incrementally with frequent customer feedback
  • Build new, and improve existing, internal and external customer-facing APIs that interface with high-throughput data streaming systems, and computing and storage infrastructure
  • Collaborate closely with product management, design and other engineers
  • Develop and deploy your code to customers multiple times per day
  • Be a part of a small team of engineers collectively accountable for the reliability and security of the team’s software
  • Contribute to the creation of new, and improvements to existing, backend data models
  • Work with a DevOps approach - we build and maintain our own software, including taking turns being on-call, and tailoring our own on-call alert policies to prevent pager-fatigue

This role requires
  • 2+ years of professional experience in software development with robust engineering teams building applications that delight users
  • 2 or more years of experience building backend services that power internal and external APIs
  • 2 or more years of experience writing production level Java code, and at least a willingness to write in Kotlin
  • Attention to detail and consistency of implementation
  • Comfortable working on a team where code quality and code reviews are prioritized
  • Willingness to be on-call for the services the team owns

Bonus points if you have
  • Worked with high-availability, high-scale, distributed systems in a production environment
  • Ability to scale solutions
  • Willingness to be on-call for the services the team owns
  • Terraform and Kubernetes experience is a plus
  • AWS or other cloud services experience is a plus
  • Experience writing SQL queries and optimizing databases is a plus
  • Experience with queueing systems like Kafka an;d Amazon SQS is a plus
  • Willingness to work on frontend projects and familiarity with Typescript, React, and GraphQL is a plus
