Job Description
Full job description
Smartsheet is a tech company with a human story to tell. We're here to empower teams to manage projects, automate workflows, and rapidly build new secure solutions, using simple no-code tools. We're revolutionaries – so for us changing the way the world works is all in a day's work.
Smartsheet is looking for a curious, capable engineer who really cares about properly architecting for cloud-native enterprise data interactions. You will engage in many discussions, decision making opportunities, and provide education on the pros and cons of different data technologies, for long-term data storage, fast retrieval, and migration - such as using AWS DMS for migration vs native MySQL replication for migration of tables, the use of Redis Enterprise vs Aurora for specific use cases, or on vertically vs horizontally sharding and rebalancing shards. You'll be communicating prioritization and influencing decisions both at the team and at the upper leadership levels, and most importantly your curiosity and drive to improve will be contagious and get others excited to solve problems with you!
You will report to our Director, Engineering located in our Bellevue, WA office, or you may work remotely from anywhere in the US where Smartsheet is a registered employer.
You Will:
Participate in comparing and choosing technologies and develop plans and schemas for the migration and transformation of existing and new data
Support and provide technical leadership for various engineering teams in their efforts to architect decoupled services with large data sets
Dive into complex performance problems, particularly around the relationships between the monolithic legacy app, services in various stages of decoupling, and other interactions
Build scalable back-end systems for enterprise grade levels (Java, Spring Boot, etc)
Solve challenging distributed systems problems and work with modern cloud infrastructure (AWS, Kubernetes)
Influence technical direction of the group towards creating a comprehensive service-oriented architecture
Guide and mentor team members regarding architecture and best practices
Review and coach team on project designs for design review presentations
Forge strong partnership with product management and other key areas of the business
Influence and mentor other teams of engineers, acting as a technical design mentor and providing architectural and design input
You Have:
10+ years software development experience building highly scalable, highly available applications
10+ years of programming experience with full stack technologies such Java, Kotlin or TypeScript
2+ years of experience with cloud technologies (AWS, Azure, etc.)
Experience developing, documenting, and supporting REST APIs
A degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field or equivalent practical experience.
Legally eligible to work in the U.S. on an ongoing basis
