About the role:
As a member of the Client Integrations team you'll be working on the systems that communicate with our clients, making sure they scale as the company grows, are flexible enough to adapt to changing needs, are reliable, performant and compliant.
You will play a pivotal role by building new features and evolve our architecture to adapt to:

Challenges for this team include scaling our software services without increasing operational load. It's an exciting time to join January's engineering team as we work on leveling up our platform to handle the increased growth and complexity we'll need for years to come.
Your impact:
- Shape the future. Perform thorough code reviews and manage technical debt to maintain a robust, scalable codebase that propels our products forward
- Innovate daily. Champion innovation and best practices, pushing the boundaries of technical and product excellence
- Collaborate and thrive. Partner with our users, legal and compliance, customer success, and other engineering teams to foster a culture of teamwork and shared success
- Lead major projects. Tackle complex projects, deliver impactful solutions, and bring your ideas to life while aligning with our company goals
You might be a fit if you have:
- 2-5 years experience as a software engineer
- Have lead the planning and execution of complex projects
- Enjoy and thrive in an environment of collaboration
- Have experience or a strong interest in building and designing back-end systems
- Optional experience working in a distributed systems environment and/or building data pipelines
We encourage you to apply if you value:
- Genuine collaboration. We recognize and explicitly reward feedback, alignment, and learning from each other
- Managers as advocates. You’ll report to leaders invested in your growth and promotion, not just their own. Managers only succeed when their teams thrive
- Outcomes over output. We value finding ways to do more with less, working smart instead of burning out
- Product ownership. Engineers are owners, not mercenaries. Everyone plays a role in discovering, advocating for, and implementing product ideas
- Technical quality. We work collaboratively with product to ensure great outcomes without sacrificing quality. Sustainable development is a first class priority
