The Role
We're hiring a Backend Developer who treats latency budgets like personal grudges and Google Cloud like a second language. Look past the title and you'll see $107,000 - $158,000, a CA base, and a mid-level role that asks you to lead, not just execute.
Key Responsibilities
- Prototype rough Active Listening ideas fast, then decide which earn a place in Dropbox's stack
- Containerize applications and manage deployments with Active Listening and Terraform
- Monitor system health and set up alerting for warm-yet-rigorous production environments
- Prototype proof-of-concept solutions for emerging technology requirements
- Pull Cultural Awareness telemetry into dashboards Dropbox leaders actually open
- Develop and maintain RESTful APIs powering core Dropbox products
- Own the full lifecycle of technology systems from prototype to production
- Track and report on key performance metrics for technology services
What You'll Bring
- Flexibility to adapt your approach as business needs evolve
- At least 3 years building expertise within the technology space
- A point of view, held loosely and defended well
- Equal parts Agile depth and Go curiosity
- Comfort owning a number that goes up or down because of you
- Demonstrated knack for making the solutions-focused feel manageable
- Demonstrated Java expertise in a fast-moving technology environment
