Company Description


As an Etsy employee, you can do the work you love, be yourself, and make an impact in the lives of millions. Our commitments to diversity and inclusion, team culture and the spaces where we work all reflect our mission to keep commerce human.


Job Description

As a Senior Software Engineer I, you will be responsible for taking the lead on directing and implementing solutions to moderately complex, loosely scoped problems that are aligned with your team's goals. Your work extends to many parts of a product or system. You deliver projects independently or by leading your teammates to do so. You enable other engineers on your team to be successful.

The Senior Software Engineer I will be responsible for:

  • Contributing at all levels of Etsy’s search and recommendations stacks, ranging from application back-end technologies (Scala, Java, Python) as well as machine learning stack (Spark, Scalding, Airflow).
  • Developing and maintaining critical path product services.
  • Provide detailed and constructive design and code reviews.
  • Work cross-functionally with platform teams, ML teams and product partners to build the next generation of data discovery platform in the cloud.
  • Gain insights through research, data analysis, and our A/B tests.
  • Push code to production early and often using our continuous deployment systems.
  • Build and maintain observability and test tooling - logging, monitoring, distributed tracing, alerting and offline test tools needed for search and recommendation systems.
  • Practice continuous learning and agile delivery models to stay informed and focused on our deliverables.

To be successful in this role, the Senior Software Engineer I will work collaboratively with your teammates to independently tackle well-scoped problems, regularly deliver work to end users and are a primary contributor to your team's goals. You work on features and projects within a broader product or system. Your technical planning has shown to reduce failure scenarios and identify edge cases early on.
