About the role

Transcend is seeking a highly motivated and talented Senior Software Engineer to build software that helps companies tackle tough privacy challenges. In addition to working on the core Transcend application, you will contribute to new products and initiatives such as:

• DSR Automation: A tool to automate the process of responding to user data subject requests (DSRs) by connecting directly to data systems to download, modify, or delete user data.
• Consent & Preference Management: A set of tools to collect and enforce user consent & preferences on the frontend (web & mobile) and then propagate this data to backend systems.

What you'll do

• Collaborate with product managers and designers to build business-critical features. You will think critically about the implications of what you’re building, and how it relates to the overarching privacy goals of our customers.
• Ship production-ready code that’s easy to iterate on. You know what tests to write, what to log, what metrics to capture, what alerts to set up.
• Work across the stack to deliver features: Typescript, React, GraphQL, Node.js, PostgreSQL, AWS. If you work on the Consent & Preferences product lines, you’ll also get to work with native browser APIs and mobile SDKs.
• Participate in roadmap discussions and technical design reviews.
• Proactively fix production and development issues.

Who you are

• You have 4-6 years of experience in software engineering, with an emphasis on backend or full-stack development. DevOps experience is a big plus!
• You take charge of your own professional and technical learnings. You know when to ask for help, and when to try to solve a problem on your own. You strike a good balance between learning how something works deeply and getting a task done. You actively seek feedback from others to improve your own work.
• You’re able to identify trade-offs and take them into consideration when making decisions. You care about business impact and prioritize projects accordingly. You’re not just going after the latest cool tech – you understand the balance between craft, speed, and the bottom line.
• You are effective at async and online methods of communication. Our team is remote, so the ability to clearly and thoughtfully communicate despite the space and time barriers is very important.
