Software Engineer IV

Software Engineer

Job Description

Overview & Background

We are looking for a full-stack (Angular + Node.js) developer responsible for developing new features, and maintaining the operation of existing features, for our core SaaS product, an Association Management System (AMS). Our platform is built on AWS, is serverless-first and consists of hundreds of Node.js microservices that run across thousands of AWS Lambda functions. With a loosely coupled architecture and aggressive unit, integration, and end-to-end testing coverage, each microservice is tied to a continuing integration & delivery pipeline that allows us to deploy to production dozens, sometimes hundreds, of times per day.

You will be supporting our existing microservices, as well as developing brand new microservices and the UI elements that consume them. These microservices will add new features for our customers or integrate our platform with external systems using our partners’ APIs. Your responsibility will extend all the way to the production infrastructure for each microservice you develop. Since each microservice is self-contained and uses CloudFormation for Infrastructure-as-Code (IoC), you will develop not just code, but the resources the code needs to work.

In addition to developing features, you will support external engineers as they develop against our API. You will work with our customers and partners to understand their unique use case / requirements and will guide them with best practices, documentation, and code samples using our Senior Engineers as guides to help you get the job done.

We want - no, we insist - that our engineers stay abreast of technological developments, join meetups, and attend one major technology conference every year.

Essential Duties & Responsibilities

• Designing and developing new Node.js microservices to add new features or integrate with our partners’ systems using their APIs / Webhooks
• Designing and developing new Angular components and leveraging our existing component libraries to deliver UI elements to support new features
• Triaging and resolving assigned reported issues in our Angular front-end or Node.js back-end
• Working with our customers and partners to support their engineers as they develop against our REST APIs
• Coordinating with our Senior Engineers to advise customers and partners on best practices
• Develop documentation and code samples to help external engineers get started developing against our API
• Defining AWS resources needed by each microservice : Lambda functions, DynamoDB tables, SQS queues, SNS topics, API Gateway endpoints, Step Functions and more
• Writing reusable, testable, and efficient code
