Description

Zip is tackling the $50B+TAM space to transform the way businesses manage spend. Our co-founders started Zip (YC S2020) because they saw the challenges companies had using outdated 20 year old software to manage hundreds of millions of dollars in spend every year. We invented the world’s leading Intake-to-Procure solution to bring a consumer grade user experience to B2B purchasing. And, we’re just getting started.

We're a fast growing team that helped scale category-defining companies like Airbnb, Facebook, Salesforce, Apple, Quora, Pinterest, and Square. With $180 million in funding from YC Continuity (Y Combinator), CRV and Tiger Global, we're valued at $1.5 billion in just 3 years. In today's economic climate, the value we offer our customers is more critical than ever and our business is accelerating. We're growing quickly and need your help!

Your Role

Zip’s Search Platform is built on top of AWS Opensearch. It powers the Zip dashboards, AI (Zip Copilot), customer reporting, and more. As Zip's customer base grows rapidly, we are looking for a senior engineer to help improve the search platform scalability, indexing reliability, search performance, search developer experience, and so on.

  • Drive the Search Platform roadmap and architecture design
  • Improve the search indexing latency, reliability and scalability
  • Work closely with Product teams and improve the search API ergonomics

Qualifications

  • Over 4 years of software engineering experience

The salary range for this role is $160,000 - $210,000. The salary for this position is determined based on a variety of job-related factors that may include location, relevant experience, education, or particular skills and expertise.
