Senior Product Engineer

Intercom is the AI Customer Service company on a mission to help businesses provide incredible customer experiences.

Our AI agent Fin, the most advanced customer service AI agent on the market, lets businesses deliver always-on, impeccable customer service and ultimately transform their customer experiences for the better. Fin can also be combined with our Helpdesk to become a complete solution called the Intercom Customer Service Suite, which provides AI enhanced support for the more complex or high touch queries that require a human agent.

Founded in 2011 and trusted by nearly 30,000 global businesses, Intercom is setting the new standard for customer service. Driven by our core values, we push boundaries, build with speed and intensity, and consistently deliver incredible value to our customers.

What's the Opportunity?

At Intercom, you will be a product engineer - someone who solves real customer problems through a smart and efficient application of your technical knowledge and your tools. You'll be part of one of our multidisciplinary product teams, where you will build both back-end and front-end systems, and work closely with designers, product managers, researchers, and data analysts.

We're facing many exciting scaling challenges and we're building a robust platform where your expertise can be applied to areas such as building a beautiful messenger composer, rule matching, deliverability, security, app availability and machine learning, to name a few.

What Will I Be Doing?

As an experienced engineer you will:

  • Develop technical plans and contribute to our technical architecture as we scale our products to serve tens of millions of people every day.
  • Write Ruby code, which knits together a lot of AWS, infrastructure, platform and SaaS technologies that form the core of Intercom's backend infrastructure
  • Ship a change to production on your first day and a feature in your first week. That "day one" change is automatically deployed to production along with 100 other deployments (on average) each weekday.
  • Build using the best tools in the industry. We invest heavily in AI-powered developer tools that remove friction and help you focus on solving meaningful problems.
  • Grow your team's capacity by mentoring other engineers and interviewing candidates. This is a chance to be an integral part of building and growing a team.

What Skills Do I Need?

You can demonstrate significant impact that your work has had on the product and/or the team:

  • 5+ years of industry experience in a software engineering role, preferably building a SaaS product.
  • Deep knowledge of a high-level programming language (for example, Ruby, Python, Javascript etc.).
  • Experience collaborating directly with product teams and designers, and a proven track record of delivering value to customers or users.
  • Experience with Distributed systems.

Benefits

We are a well-treated bunch, with awesome benefits! If there's something important to you that's not on this list, talk to us!

  • Competitive salary, annual bonus and equity
  • Regular compensation reviews - we reward great work!
  • Generous paid time off above statutory minimum
  • Generous family leave (maternity, paternity), to let you spend valuable time with your loved ones
  • Hybrid working
  • MacBooks are our standard, but we also offer Windows for certain roles when needed.
  • Fun events for Intercomrades, friends, and family!

Intercom has a hybrid working policy. We believe that working in person helps us stay connected, collaborate easier and create a great culture while still providing flexibility to work from home. We expect employees to be in the office at least three days per week.

Intercom values diversity and is committed to a policy of Equal Employment Opportunity. Intercom will not discriminate against an applicant or employee on the basis of race, color, religion, creed, national origin, ancestry, sex, gender, age, physical or mental disability, veteran or military status, genetic information, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, marital status, or any other legally recognized protected basis under federal, state, or local law.
