• 7+ years of relevant work experience, including technical leadership

• Proficiency in DB modeling, API design, modern python

What it's like to be part of Dialogue Engineering

Empowered teams. Our teams own objectives, not projects. This means that your team is empowered to creatively engineer solutions rather than just implement someone else’s ideas. Dialogue engineers regularly meet with stakeholders to learn about their needs, collect feedback, and collaboratively iterate on the product.

Fast development cycles. We’ve built mature continuous integration pipelines and automated testing to drive quick cycles, readable code reviews, and low defect rates. Simple web and backend changes can be verified and safely shipped to production in minutes, while our mobile apps and care platform maintain a working pre-prod branch and a tight release schedule.

DevOps mindset. Our applications are deployed to an auto-scaling Kubernetes cluster on AWS defined with infra-as-code. We are constantly working to secure, standardize, and improve our infrastructure, tooling, and tech stack. At Dialogue, the “right” way is often the same as the “easy” way.

How we hire engineers

Our method is geared to find a candidate who will enjoy their day-to-day work, share our values, and enrich our culture. During the hiring process, we’ll expose you to the type of work you’ll actually be doing every day and give you opportunities to speak with your future peers and leaders.
