Rigor in high code quality, automated testing, and other engineering best practices
You care a lot about Developer Experience

What the job involves

In the Dashboard Platform team, we're on a mission to empower all developers at Algolia to ship features to our customer-facing Dashboard, with an emphasis on offering a great and consistent customer experience, at scale
In practice, that means:
Working on core features of the Algolia Dashboard, including our agentic and AI powered features
Building new services powering our infrastructure platform, to enable quick & autonomous deployment for all teams, using Kubernetes, Terraform and AWS
Building tooling, features & guidelines that contribute to a great Developer Experience
Collaborating with all developers to support the adoption & usage of our tools
We have ambitious goals ahead of us and in that context, we are looking for a Senior Fullstack Engineer, with a heavy focus on infrastructure automation
Not only will you lead projects in complete autonomy, you will also be accountable for planning ahead, and thinking in terms of what’s best globally for the company rather than locally for your projects
This also means you are expected to ramp up on multiple projects, and orchestrate changes across projects and teams whenever necessary
You will be joining a newly formed team of two senior software engineers, one manager, all of whom are obsessed with helping Algolia build great experience
Your role will consist of being a key contributor to operation & deployment of all features of the Dashboard Platform
Taking ownership, research, explore and deliver world-class developer experiences
Sharing your knowledge on software engineering, testing and deployment best practices

Our take

While in-site searching has been available for some time from web search servers such as Google and Bing, its functionality is limited due to it relying on general web scraping techniques which can miss relevant information. By contrast Algolia indexes only the company's site, allowing its search to serve accurate results extremely swiftly, which helps to drive sales conversions aside from making sites far more usable. The efficacy of this solution can be seen from its customer base of over 10,000 companies including the likes of Slack, Zendesk and Lacoste.

To diversify and increase the product range, Algolia have expanded into other real-time APIs such as product recommendations available for eCommerce websites. With the company performing extremely well over the last few years, Algolia have recruited key senior executives to further its growth. As the company continues to scale it seems likely that an IPO is not too distant a prospect.
