 **What We’re Building**

Honeycomb is the observability platform for teams who manage software that
matters. Send any data to our one-of-a-kind data store, solve problems with
all the relevant context, and fix issues before your customers find them.
Honeycomb is the unified, fast, and collaborative choice for engineering teams
who care about customer experience to get the answers they need, quickly. We
are passionate about consumer-quality developer tools and excited to build
technology that raises our industry’s expectations of what our tools can do
for us. We’re working with well known companies like HelloFresh, Slack,
LaunchDarkly, and Vanguard and more across a range of industries. This is an
exciting time in our trajectory, as we’ve closed Series D funding, scaled past
the 200-person mark, and were named to Forbes’ America’s Best Startups of 2022
and 2023!



If you want to see what we’ve been up to, please check out these [_blog
posts_](https://www.honeycomb.io/blog) and
[Honeycomb.io](https://honeycomb.io/) [ _press
releases_](https://www.honeycomb.io/category/press-releases).



 **Who We Are**

We come for the impact, and stay for the culture! We’re a talented,
opinionated, passionate, fiercely inclusive, and responsible group of bees. We
have conviction and we strive to live [_our
values_](https://www.honeycomb.io/about/) every day. We want our people to do
what they truly love amongst a team of highly talented (but humble) peers.



 **How We Work**

We are a remote-first company, which means we believe it is not where you sit,
but how you deliver that matters most. We invest in our people and care about
how you orient to our culture and processes. At the same time we imbue a lot
of trust, autonomy, and accountability from Day 1. #LI-Remote

  

 **The Role**

As a Full-Stack Senior Engineer on this team, you’ll join a growing
engineering team building a range of features pivotal to Enterprise Honeycomb
customers. These customers are growing and need to scale up Honeycomb usage
and experience to allow their people and teams to use us effectively.

  

The types of problems we focus on are:

  

*Automated management and organization (via [APIs](https://docs.honeycomb.io/api/) and [Terraform)](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/honeycombio/honeycombio/latest/docs) of Honeycomb resources (boards, triggers, SLOs, etc.) and automated lifecycle management of users, teams, and their data (datasets/environments).

*Lifecycle organization and management of users and teams via UI and API. In the future, we hope to enable organizations to mirror their organizational structure within Honeycomb.

*Addressing maturity expectations and solving problems for enterprises and customers with many Users and Teams.

  

Read about the feature the Team [recently
released](https://changelog.honeycomb.io/customizable-webhook-
recipients-307586) to help our customers connect Honeycomb to [various tools
in their
ecosystem](https://docs.honeycomb.io/integrations/webhooks/#customize-your-
webhook).

### What You’ll Do In the Role:

  

  *  **Build and deliver quality software.** You will write code across the full application stack, primarily in Typescript/React and Go. While most of your time will be focused on delivering software, you will be trusted to model best practices, work on team-level projects, and weigh in on larger technical decisions with the team.
  *  **Collaborate with cross-functional partners.** Our team follows a product triad model composed of design, product, and engineering. You will collaborate with these partners, beginning with problem discovery through solution design and delivery. We work through building small changes/experiments and then iterate based on customer interaction.
  *  **Support our software/systems in production.** We believe in owning the software that we build. The ownership is built through defining our own team KPIs, product SLOs, and alerting. Every engineer on the team participates in an on-call rotation to support issues that our customers encounter (reactive) and to look for other areas of toil that our customers may face (proactive).
  *  **Learn new ways to solve complex problems.** As our company and product grow, we regularly face new challenges in scaling to meet our customers’ demands. You will learn new technologies as we look for new ways to use our databases, caches, and streams to optimize for this growth. With the support of your team and the larger organization you can be creative in your problem solving, experiment carefully, and participate in designing novel solutions.
  *  **Wear the tech lead or feature lead hat.** The ideal candidate would probably enjoy a variety in their work and be willing to jump between creating software and helping break down work to support the team to deliver against its goals. You will be expected to successfully plan, lead, and deliver complex, multi-team or system, long-term projects, including ones with external dependencies.
  *  **Values clear, open communication and teamwork.** We see clear, thoughtful, and regular written & face-to-face communication (including a willingness to give & receive feedback) as a fundamental engineering skill and one of the strongest predictors of future engineering impact, not just a nice to have, and we hope you do too. In this role, you will also be a part of helping others maintain resilience in periods of change.

  

### What You'll Bring:

  

  *  **Deep experience in React, Typescript, and building for the Web**. You have experience of at least 2 years working with technologies we use and have the experience of being a technical lead to design and implement new features for the browser. 
  * **Act with Autonomy and Ownership.** Can work independently and with the team as needed and be accountable end-to-end through planning, deployment, and maintenance, showing ownership of their own work in production. Proactively identifies and suggests solutions to problems impacting the team. Knows how to create their own learning path, proactively seeking out the resources they need to level up.
  *  **Experience working across an application stack.** You have experience with modern frontend and backend languages. You have delivered features for which you built the UI, as well as the database migrations, services, and API endpoints that power them. You also bring experience with services that interact with distributed data stores, like event streaming (Kafka). 
  * **Comfortable supporting production software.** You have experience shipping features to production and understand how to investigate and triage issues in your deployed code. You may have participated in an on-call rotation before and have opinions about making it an effective and positive experience (read about how we [track on-call health](https://www.honeycomb.io/blog/tracking-on-call-health/)).
  *  **A strong sense of teamwork.** By working as a member of an effective team our shared objectives are consistently reached, our users benefit from our rapid delivery, we grow together by sharing knowledge, and we ensure that every team member can get the rest and time away they need.
  *  **A flexible mindset.** The urgency of product delivery within a growing business sometimes requires us to alter our strategies or roadmap. You have an open mind and are comfortable pivoting when necessary to meet the company's or customers' needs.
  *  **Can balance engineering investment with customer value.** It’s easy to get caught up in building a perfectly polished solution and lose the context of the value you are delivering. You have experience revisiting scope and working in small iterations to quickly put features in customers’ hands.
