San Francisco, United States Discord Full time

Discord is used by over 200 million people every month for many different reasons, but there’s one thing that nearly everyone does on our platform: play video games. Over 90% of our users play games, spending a combined 1.5 billion hours playing thousands of unique titles on Discord each month. Discord plays a uniquely important role in the future of gaming. We are focused on making it easier and more fun for people to talk and hang out before, during, and after playing games.

Discord is about giving people the power to create space to find belonging in their lives. We want to make it easier for you to talk regularly with the people you care about. We want you to build genuine relationships with your friends and communities close to home or around the world. Original, reliable, playful, and relatable. These are the values that connect our users and our employees at Discord.

We’re looking for a technical, hands-on, and mission-driven Senior Software Engineer to help us build the next generation of social gaming features on Discord. You will drive the technical solutions for new products that make Discord the best place to discover and talk about games with your friends. You’ll work with functions across the Discovery organization such as Engineering, Product, Data Science, Design and Machine Learning to build a best in class social experience. You will be reporting to the Senior Engineering Manager of Activity Feed.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Collaborate with leads and senior engineers on the team to drive projects on Activity Feed.
  • Provide feedback on the work of other engineers and mentor junior team members to learn and grow.
  • Partner with Product, Design, Marketing, Partnerships, and Machine Learning to prototype, test, and release new features.
  • Drive technical excellence through direct and indirect contributions. Maintain a sharp focus on the quality of execution and deliver pixel perfect experiences to users.
  • Partner with leadership on strategic planning and improve our processes while upholding our workplace philosophy.

What you should have

  • 5+ years of experience in software development, with an understanding of the development frameworks and fundamentals of one or more of our platforms: web (React, TypeScript), Android (React Native, Kotlin), iOS (React Native, Objective-C, Swift), and backend (Python and some Elixir).
  • Experience building and shipping experimental product features, especially features for products at large scale or in real-time applications.
  • You view mistakes as learning opportunities and build upon your successes. You challenge yourself and those around you to continuously improve.
  • You have an eye for what changes can bring a product from good to great. You collaborate with product managers, designers, analysts, and other engineers to define great solutions to business problems.
  • You have a pragmatic approach to solving complex problems and enjoy rapidly prototyping solutions. You value your autonomy and operate with a high integrity.
