About the Role

Envoy is building the workplace platform. It is the foundation of not only its own products but also that of integrations with other software and hardware used in a workplace. Our focus is on integrations that help improve workplace communication, security, safety, efficiency, etc., and expand the Envoy ecosystem. As a backend engineer, you will build services supporting integrations and easy-to-use integration tools.

This role functions within the Solutions Engineering team at Envoy, which lives within the Success organization but touches every team (sales, product, engineering, finance, etc).

Integrations are standalone back-end systems that connect Envoy’s platform to 3rd party APIs. The day-to-day of a Backend Engineer working on Integrations involves mainly “deep” work: architecting, programming, and debugging integrations. On occasion, you will be expected to evaluate the technical feasibility of integrating with prospective 3rd party Technology Partners. You may also be called upon to help debug existing integrations by inspecting code, logs, and performance tools. Though infrequent, some aspects of your work will require collaboration with 3rd party developers and support teams.

This is a hybrid position that requires at least 3 days a week (Tuesday - Thursday) in our New York Office.

You Will

  • Scope, develop, test, and deploy integrations between Envoy and 3rd party Technology Partners.
  • Determine project feasibility, integration points, alternative approaches, and best practices within the confines of available solutions.
  • Dive deep into 3rd party documentation to understand their features and nuances.
  • Work quickly and independently using Envoy’s Integrations platform.
  • Maintain and improve existing integrations, and act quickly and efficiently as new bugs are reported.
  • Build and improve Envoy’s growing Integrations platform with 3rd party Technology Partners.

You Have  

  • 5+ years of engineering experience preferred
  • A creative problem solver. You have a track record of identifying elegant solutions with creativity.
  • A back-end engineer at heart, but able to comfortably work on the front-end when needed.
  • Proficient in communicating effectively with other engineers (both in-house and 3rd party). You also respect their ideas and opinions and converse with business etiquette.
  • A self-starter who enjoys owning projects end-to-end. You thrive in small teams and enjoy the challenge of occasionally stepping outside your comfort zone to learn something new.
  • Able to recognize when a situation requires cautious analysis or more active investigation.
  • A mentor with experience tactfully educating teammates and distributing your knowledge (e.g., written documentation). You should feel comfortable as a thought leader.
  • Security-conscious. As Envoy becomes commonplace around the world, the data we store will be more and more valuable. It is your job to make our storage practices a no-brainer for our customers and evangelize best practices.
  • Up-to-date on best practices in programming and developer tools.
  • Excellent with time management. Able to work in a distributed environment with accountability and transparency.

You Are

  • Understanding of Typescript development experience writing, maintaining and debugging code in a production environment.
  • Excellent understanding of modern (ES6+) JavaScript
  • Excellent understanding of APIs; 3+ years experience integrating 3rd party APIs
  • Comfortable architecting robust solutions, delivering tech specs, and creating flow diagrams
  • Familiarity using command-line tools
  • Familiarity writing automated tests
  • Familiarity with git, GitHub, and Heroku

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
