The Key to Success in Our Development Projects

Our expert in high-scale real-time data applications and API development.

As a Senior Backend Developer in the Commerce Implement team, you will use your experience building data-intensive applications to help us support the requirements of the biggest enterprise retailers. You’ll help your team design and implement very high-scale solutions to challenging problems such as product catalog ingestion, real-time schema-driven data validation and ensuring integrity in distributed systems. 

By collaborating with other teams, you will develop a deep understanding of how Coveo ingests, indexes and surfaces catalog data and use that to help shape the future of our Commerce technology.

Here is a glimpse at your responsibilities:

  • Design and build intuitive APIs for our customers to use to integrate their data with Coveo to ensure they succeed.
  • Use modern high-scale database technologies to efficiently process, store and distribute massive quantities of data.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to understand business requirements and translate them into technical solutions.
  • Implement and manage queuing, batching, and buffering systems using technologies like Amazon SQS.
  • Optimize application performance and database queries for high throughput and low latency.
  • Mentor junior developers and contribute to best practices in software development.

Here is what will qualify you for the role:

  • Minimum 5 years of professional experience in a software development role, with a proven track record in designing and implementing high-scale REST APIs using Java.
  • Experience building data-intensive real-time applications using cloud database technologies, ideally in AWS.
  • Knowledge of Kubernetes, deploying services in cloud environments and operating them at scale.
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively as part of a  cross-functional development team.

Here is what would make you stand out:

  • Experience working with horizontal scaling database technologies like NewSQL and NoSQL.
  • Knowledge of ecommerce platforms, their catalog data structures and various integration mechanisms
  • A background in SaaS, building and delivering intuitive customer-facing APIs and systems that offer a great developer experience.
  • A Strong understanding and experience of AWS specifically (and the sub-products that come along with it, like SQS, S3, Aurora, etc..)
