COMPANY

Pantheon powers the world's professional websites. Our multi-tenant, container-based Website Management Platform enables businesses to build, launch, and run business-critical Drupal & WordPress websites. Teams building websites do so better, faster, and more securely using our cloud development tools. Companies large and small trust Pantheon, including Intel, Cisco, Arizona State University, and the United Nations.

We value teamwork, trust and enthusiastic engagement in a collaborative work environment. We're active participants in several open-source communities, and have real relationships with many of our most active customers; that's where you come in.

POSITION

Pantheon is currently looking for a motivated and energetic individual to join the company's engineering team as a full-time member of the team. The Product Engineer role is a Customer and Product focused generalist who can work on many levels of a technical stack and wants to do it within a small multi-disciplinary team. You will have a direct impact on the features that delight customers and create real business opportunity.

RESPONSIBILITIES

The primary responsibility is to collaboratively design, develop, launch and maintain user experiences and feature-sets that make Pantheon amazing.

• Work with Product Managers and other Engineers on your team to design, architect and deliver features and technical improvements to the Pantheon platform.
• Evolve existing implementations, and deploy new ones while iterating towards a modern microservice-oriented service layer.
• Work across teams to share architecture, evolve engineering standards, introduce testing approaches, mentor peers and celebrate our wins.
• Support production operations and provide engineering level insight on platform issues.

Some specifics include:

• Code for Developers: “Imagine you are busy web developer working on the next awesome feature for your site and every branch of your code that goes through a Github pull request is deployed as a complete stand-alone website that includes your new branch code, files and database, all ready at the click of a link for your automated testing and reviewers to do their exploratory acceptance testing.” You can be part of making features like continuous integration a reality for thousands of web developers.
• Build and Measure: Track and leverage product engagement metrics to ensure that users are seeing, using, and activating using Pantheon’s most valuable features. We’ll help you prove your impact on the business and with customers.
• Fast and Lean: Improve the success and testability of Pantheon’s platform by employing things like API contract-testing to ensure we maintain confidence in our continuous delivery.
