Senior Fullstack Software Engineer, GraphQL
We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help us optimize, build and expand our visual CMS using GraphQL in new and innovative ways. Help us transform our existing data layer to a powerful, multi-tenant orchestration layer with enough extensibility to allow for third party data integration. Architect and implement publishing features that enable our users to create and consume dynamic data from a host of sources on their published webpages.
About the role
- Location: Remote - Any timezone between UTC-5 and UTC+3
- Full-time
As a Senior Fullstack Software Engineer, you’ll:
- Work on a highly technical platform that empowers hundreds of thousands of people, and serves millions of page views an hour
- Develop the architecture and systems underpinning dynamic data handling in the Webflow renderer
- Write performant JavaScript that powers our frontend React app and backend systems
- Reimagine how visual no-code tools operate on dynamic data using technologies like GraphQL and pushing the boundaries of what is possible.
- Write and optimize MongoDB queries and data models
- Collaborate with the team to improve our internal development process
- Participate in decisions that guide what new features will be shipped as a part of a multidisciplinary team
- Mentor other engineers on best practice, design considerations, and quality
That said, these role responsibilities are just the start! At Webflow, we encourage you to contribute wherever your interests take you — and shape your role accordingly.
And this isn’t just a philosophical bent: we actually give you 4 hours a week (10% of the work week) to tackle passion projects directly related to Webflow.
About you
You’ll thrive as a Senior Fullstack Software Engineer if you:
- Have significant experience engineering scalable, multi-tenant environments that deliver rich front-end experiences
- Have a deep understanding of data design and modeling
- Have exceptional JavaScript skills. Experience with React.js & Node.js is a plus.
- Have experience with building and scaling production-grade GraphQL architectures that use stitched or federated GraphQL schemas.
- Experience with GraphQL code generators is a plus.
- Have built and worked on complex web applications
- Are comfortable behind a linux terminal
- Are comfortable with ambiguity and scoping solutions with your teammates
- Are comfortable providing caring and constructive feedback to others
However, even if you don’t meet 100% of the above qualifications, you should still seriously consider applying. Studies show that meeting just 50% of a role’s requirements puts you in the running.
