Software Development Engineer (SDE) I

We are looking for smart, self-motivated software developers to join the Conversational Understanding and Automation team. Good testing expertise, deep knowledge about reactive systems and the ability to work with distributed systems is essential for this role.

• Your actions reveal that you are passionate and care about software development.
• You have a flair for software design and like to talk about and discuss various software topics.
• For you, software development is more than a job.
  

Fast Feedback

While developing we optimize for fast and data-driven feedback. We prototype and evaluate solution ideas. We capture behaviour in examples. From these scenarios we derive our tests and, preferably, drive them outside-in. We think this is a crucial mindset for a senior position. How do you get feedback from your code? If you have working experience with TDD, we want to know more. How much? Compared to us, how did you do it? What problems did you face? The more the better!

Analytical Skills

We depend on code in LivePerson which was built over a long time. We deliberately try to capture the current behavior before adapting it. However, this can be quite hard and requires a lot of skill. We consider this to be one trait of a senior position. If you worked with legacy code, we want to know more. How much? What was your approach? Did you work with it in a recent project? What problems have you faced? The more the better!

The Role

Our teams are autonomous, self-learning and provide support for the product. You will be part of our on-call and work with stakeholders in a collaborative manner. We recognize that things are not perfect here and we admit that we have challenges which need to be tackled. However, we are continuously improving and learning.

Technologies we use

Here Is a List Of Technologies We Currently Use

Most of our code is written in Scala and Java. We would be especially interested in candidates from this technological background but are open to other experiences as long as you have a very good understanding of object oriented programming, have experience in functional programming.

• Scala, Java 11, Python
• Spark, Kafka Streams, Cassandra, Seldon
• Kubernetes, GCP
