About the role
- We're hiring a Senior Software Engineer to join Pivotal's Growth & Onboarding team.
- Strong product instincts and a genuine interest in what customers need earliest in their journey are just as important as technical depth here.
Responsibilities
- Build and own backend systems: Design, implement, and maintain the services and APIs that power provider onboarding, activation, customization workflows, and growth-oriented tooling. Take end-to-end ownership from design through production.
- Build practical customer-facing tools: Translate what providers, sales, and marketing need at the earliest stages of the customer lifecycle into reliable, well-designed backend systems and workflows.
- Contribute to architectural decisions: Be an active participant in technical planning and design discussions. Bring your implementation perspective and push back when you see a better path.
- Partner cross-functionally: Work closely with product, sales, and marketing stakeholders, not just engineering. This team is a key customer touchpoint and the right person is comfortable in that cross-functional environment.
- Operate with autonomy: With a small team and real ownership, there's no room for passengers. You'll identify what needs solving and drive your work forward without heavy oversight.
- Write reliable, maintainable code: Hold a high bar for code quality, testing, and system design. Build things that hold up as the platform and team scale.
- Solid understanding of backend fundamentals: system design, data modeling, API development, and service reliability
