BUILD HYBRID SAAS/ON-PREM SOFTWARE TO DELIVER THE BEST OF BOTH 

The Sisense Engineering team is on a mission to empower modern data teams to deliver insights to everyone inside and outside their organizations. We bring “power to the builders” by enabling our customers to answer complex questions with data and drive the best business outcomes possible. 

WHY YOU SHOULD JOIN OUR ENGINEERING TEAM

  • We live our values. We care about each other, the technology we create, and the customers we support. We know we’re constantly learning and improving, and look forward to sharing insights and techniques with each other.
  • We have interesting customers. We support the Red Cross with dashboards about supplies, help a suicide prevention hotline with SQL+Python ML analysis, and enable Tinder to make better matches.
  • We are our own customer. We’re heavy users of the features we build and have an intuitive understanding of what makes data teams so special and successful.
  • “You have unlimited questions remaining” is core to our team’s philosophy. We are excited about learning and sharing together, and work hard to make sure that everyone is set up for success.
  • You’ll get access. Our senior leadership, including our SF Co-Founders who started our Data Team product, as well as our two original engineers who wrote many lines of our codebase are key contributors to our team.

HOW YOU’LL RAMP...

By Day 30..

  • You will be set up with a buddy, who will work with you to get your development environment setup and work together on a first task where you will push code into production within your first few days.
  • You will develop a high level understanding of our architecture, stack, and product.
  • You will start by shipping small features, polishes, and improvements while working with the team.
  • You will understand our systems, codebase, testing strategies, development philosophies, and methodologies.
  • You will build connections with team members within and across feature teams to help you gain a deeper and wider understanding of the why and what you are building, and how the different tasks are related.

By Day 60..

  • You will continue to ship cloud features, and as you get more familiar with the codebase and tech stack, you will also start to participate in code reviews, design reviews, and as we plan our more complex features, be a crucial part of the engineering design process.
  • You will focus on deepening your understanding of our architecture, stack, and product in addition to shipping features. You’ll spend some time understanding both the web servers and backend microservices, learning how they interoperate.
  • You will be proposing, designing, and implementing solutions to improve stability, quality, and reliability of systems that drive the core features of the Cloud’s Go, Ruby, and Kubernetes architecture.

By Day 90.. 

  • You will provide architecture and design input and opinions on a wider range of projects in addition to the primary project you will be working on.
  • You will have an opportunity to focus on defining areas where you can be a force multiplier to engineers on other teams. 
  • You will have developed a full understanding of our systems, codebase, testing strategies, development philosophies, and methodologies.
  • You will be confident and comfortable shipping features independently. 

WHAT YOU’VE ACCOMPLISHED SO FAR

  • You have designed and implemented substantial backend services where your technical designs led to smaller implementation tasks for more junior engineers
  • You have helped design or architect a major feature or service that multiple other engineers worked on
  • You have solved complex technical challenges to improve customer happiness, developer productivity, and system efficiency.
  • You have previously worked in an inclusive, collaborative environment and mentoring team members when needed. You believe in achieving collective impact and that we are “better together”.
  • You have customer empathy and are curious about how your work is going to impact a customer’s use case.
  • You're excited to pitch in wherever the team needs help, from investigating issues, debugging together to supporting customers.
  • You have successfully evangelized and driven best practices related to code quality and testability across teams.

  • We're a passionate, venture-funded team with more than 2000 customers, including Nasdaq, GE Healthcare, Honda, Verizon, and Philips working out of our office in the Financial District .
  • We believe strongly in a data-driven approach to all that we do. We're constantly measuring and optimizing everything about the business.

An Insider's view of Sisense

How would you describe the company’s work-life balance?

I've never had better work-life balance than I do here! We have a flexible hybrid work model that allows employees to take control of their own schedule. Sometimes I start my day late or schedule appointments around my meetings but then there are days I work until 8 or 9pm because I need to meet with Sisensers in APAC. I love the flexibility

Susanna

Global Diversity & Inclusion Manager

How has your career grown since starting at the company?

Coming from a smaller company, Sisense gave me the opportunity to work with a number of different tools and applications that I previously never had exposure to. My manager trusted me with projects that reached different areas of the business which allowed me to showcase what I’m truly capable of.

Dennis

Team Lead, IT Support

What is your vision for the company?

My vision for the company is to grow a diverse and professional community of builders who will moonshot their career and accelerate our growth. We strive to empower Sisensers to be their best selves and do their work!

Vicki

VP Culture & Communications

What kinds of technical challenges do you and your team face?

Delivering an effective BI solution requires data modelling, product customization, and our API to meet customer requirements. With quick access to dedicated R&D mission teams and loads of experience from colleagues, I know that everyone is committed to overcoming these technical hurdles, and this directly contributes to our customers' success.
