Matillion is The Data Productivity Cloud
Matillion helps teams get data business-ready, faster — accelerating time-to-value and increasing the impact data can have.
Thousands of enterprises including Cisco, DocuSign, Pacific Life, Slack, and TUI trust Matillion technology to load, transform, sync, and orchestrate their data for a wide range of use cases from insights and operational analytics, to data science, machine learning, and AI.
With over $300M raised from top Silicon Valley investors, we are on a mission to power the data productivity of our customers and the world.
We are passionate about doing things in a smart, considerate way. We’re honoured to be named a great place to work for several years running by multiple industry research firms.
With dual headquarters in Manchester, UK and Denver, Colorado, and an expanding hybrid culture, we are looking for passionate, high-integrity individuals to help us scale up our rapidly growing business.
We are now looking for a Senior Staff Software Engineer to join #TeamGreen. This role can be based from our Madrid office.
Role Purpose
Our Engineering organisation has recently gone through a restructure with the intention of aligning multiple-cross functional teams to a single product. These teams are responsible for designing, building, hosting, maintaining and innovating these products, and can be broken down into multiple squads to help achieve this.
The Senior Staff Software Engineer will sit alongside our Engineering Managers to work across all these squads at a team/product level - they will be the technical authority working with our Engineering and Product leaders to deliver technical vision, strategy, direction and support delivery of world class software.
They will lead the technical direction for the team, and provide coaching and mentoring to other engineers. Outside the team they will share experience and best practices with other Senior Staff Software Engineers across Matillion. We are looking for people who can explain very technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders, carry out technical prioritisation and work well with colleagues in and outside of the team at all levels.
This is a technical role and will be hands on, but you will not be cutting code all day every day - you will have skills around architecture, design patterns, application hosting, build and deployment automation, development, testing and observability and use these to ensure our squads deliver software in a consistent and scalable way.
What you will be doing;
Design and Architecture Consultant
Codebase Owner
Development
Technical Mentorship
