About Hightouch
Hightouch is the leading Composable CDP that empowers companies to activate their data warehouse to power personalized marketing and business operations. Our mission is to empower everyone to take action on their data. Through our Reverse ETL platform, business and data users can seamlessly sync data from where it resides, such as warehouses and databases, to where it is needed, including operational systems and SaaS tools. Traditionally, acting on data has required engineering time and bandwidth, and left most business users stuck with charts and reports that are unable to take automated action on their data. With Hightouch, every business user, without writing any code, can activate data to streamline critical processes, improve marketing performance, and scale operations.
Role Overview
As a Senior Backend Software Engineer in the Customer Studio team at Hightouch, you will be part of a small but rapidly growing team. Your role will involve diving deep into backend and distributed systems and thinking holistically about architecture, scalability, maintainability, and reliability. You will also engage in strong customer and product thinking, and feel comfortable writing and engaging with product specs.
Key Responsibilities
- Enhance data warehouse performance by optimizing queries and investigating warehouse-specific improvements.
- Facilitate analytics and experimentation to help customers build segments and decide what data they want to sync.
- Explore real-time audience computation and syncing as warehouses adopt technologies like CDC.
- Leverage generative AI to enhance user workflows and make the experience of acting on data more seamless.
Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate for this role will be a product-minded engineer who is comfortable with backend systems and has a strong focus on customer and product requirements. You should be intellectually curious, motivated, and persistent in achieving goals.
Interview Process
Our interview process focuses on evaluating fit for the most important dimensions of the role: product sense, ability to architect backend and distributed systems, and alignment with Hightouch’s values. The stages include:
- Intro Call: Introductory call to assess mutual fit.
- System Design Screen: Designing a feature end-to-end.
