At Talkdesk, we build the next generation of our platform using a microservices architecture and strongly autonomous vertical teams. Each team owns its services end-to-end — architecture, delivery, quality, and production readiness. We expect senior engineers to set the technical bar. You will make architectural decisions, challenge assumptions, and raise the quality of both our code and our engineering practices. Peer reviews, production readiness, and collaboration are non-negotiable — nothing reaches production without scrutiny. This role is full-stack, but frontend excellence is critical. We are looking for someone who deeply understands how systems meet users — performance, usability, reliability — and can confidently move between React-based frontends and Kotlin/Java backend services with some legacy in Ruby.
