  • Participate in code reviews, technical design sessions, and team ceremonies
  • Collaborate closely with teammates and cross-functional partners

Minimum Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science (or similar) or equivalent industry experience
  • Minimum 2 years of experience in back-end or full-stack engineering, with proficiency in a compiled language such as Go, C, C++, Java, etc
  • Proven experience conducting code reviews, troubleshooting code, and writing unit tests
  • Experience successfully collaborating with others to design performant systems

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience writing Golang (Go) or C code
  • Experience with building performant REST APIs and working with NoSQL databases
  • Experience using AI tools to assist development and writing

  • Solid communication skills and a collaborative, team-first mindset

Pendo Description:

Pendo was founded in 2013 by former product managers, who combined their heads and hearts to build something they wanted but never had as product managers -- a simple way to understand and attack what truly drives product success.  Our mission is to improve society's experience with software.

Come join one of the fastest-growing startups, supported by best-in-class institutions like Battery Ventures, Salesforce Ventures, Spark Capital and Meritech.
