Staff Software Engineer, Data Compliance

Join the team as our next Staff Backend Engineer, Data Compliance Platform

Twilio powers real-time business communications and data solutions that help companies and developers worldwide build better applications and customer experiences.

Although we're headquartered in San Francisco, we're on a journey to becoming a globally antiracist company that supports diversity, equity & inclusion wherever we do business. We employ thousands of Twilions worldwide, and we're looking for more builders, creators, and visionaries to help fuel our growth momentum.

We are looking for an outstanding Backend Engineer to join the Tooling team, which is at the core of Twilio Engage’s strategy. This team is building the next-gen services and tooling for data migration, system orchestration and frameworks for privacy and compliance.

Twilio Engage is the brand new growth automation platform, built natively on Segment as the customer data platform (CDP) and natively on Twilio’s communications APIs. Our vision is a unified platform that intelligently delivers the most relevant content to marketers through the best channel at every point in their lifecycle. Imagine a platform that can take the hundreds of thousands of messages entering Segment’s pipelines every second, add in a new identity graph, and overlay multiple high speed, realtime and batch databases — and you have the Personas platform. We’ve since built several successful products on top of the Personas platform: Segment Audiences for real time audience management, Segment Traits for computation, and Profile API for real time personalization.

The Tooling team helps us raise 9s by improving developer productivity. We do this by developing tools and automation that developers use. We also improve latency by providing tools to monitor infrastructure. We partner with development teams and contribute to their code-bases on cross-team initiatives such as privacy, compliance, data migration and automation. 

In this role, you’ll:

• Build, evaluate, deploy and iterate on large scale data.
• Develop data access patterns and flexible tools that will power many product initiatives over the next five years.
• Act as a technical leader, defining the roadmap for technological adoption, and developing the skills of more junior engineers.
• Uphold Segment-Twilio’s high standards of Engineering Excellence through: thoughtful design review, foundational technology improvements, and driving adoption of best practices.
• Foster inclusive relationships and collaborate cross functionally with incredible Product Managers, Designers, Managers, Support Specialists and other Engineers.
