Heretto, a leader in content management solutions, is looking for outstanding humans that love delivering quality products. We’re a well-funded & growing startup with a big heart and giant ideas. Come have a big impact as a Customer Issues Developer focused on customer issue triage and resolution.

Role Purpose

This role is focused on analyzing and resolving bugs or other issues that come through our support channel. The Customer Triage Developer will be the key technical ingredient to delivering a great customer experience when the customer has technical issues. To be great at this role, a person must be a great engineer that loves digging into a wide range of problems. Curiosity and passion for customer service are a must.

Responsibilities

• Investigating issues that are too technical for front-line support people
• Interacting with customers to understand their situation and gather information
• Managing and resolving issue escalations
• Collaborating with customer success to communicate issues and build understanding on our team
• Developing code to resolve issues
• Working with the product team to prioritize and manage issues
• Collaborating with QA to automate testing
• Collaborating with DevOps to automate deployment
• Designing and implementing unit tests to ensure quality in our product
• Assisting customers or other team members when deep technical issues arise

Requirements

We care that you love hunting issues, driving to resolution, and you love helping customers. We want you if you love bug hunting and problem-solving regardless of the exact technology you’re working in. Our core language is Java, but you won’t see a list of languages and toolkits here.

• You thrive on untangling issues, especially in complex systems.
• You enjoy working with customers to explain complex usages and how they interact with the system
• You have a friendly and positive attitude
• You’re flexible and a team player
• You have written a lot of software for the web
• You have worked in at least one large application
• You love solving problems – both business and algorithmic
• You have worked in a major cloud and understand the various services and patterns
• Strong English written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to periodically get together for in person collaboration (a few times a year)

Our Tech Stack

Our software covers a lot of ground and uses a wide tech stack. Highlights include:

• An amazing web editor which competes with products such as Google Docs
• A distributed backend architecture - which makes extensive use of cloud microservices to warehouse data, and to provide a powerful publishing architecture for our rapidly expanding list of clients
• Google Cloud (GKE, Pub/Sub, Cloud Storage, Cloud Functions)
• GCP
• Postgres and SQLite
• Javascript, Typescript, React, GWT (Google Web Toolkit)
• Java (w/Spring Boot), TypeScript
• Git, Maven, Ansible

How We Roll

At our core we are a product company full of pragmatists.

• We care that you have built large applications, not about your current stack
• We care that you have worked with cloud and understand the various services and design patterns
• Ageism is dumb, we love people with experience
• Interview processes shouldn’t be torture, for either of us - you won’t be asked to invert a binary tree in 30 minutes or face any problem that requires a singular insight to solve
