Senior Software Engineer

Company Overview

Docusign brings agreements to life. Over 1.5 million customers and more than a billion people in over 180 countries use Docusign solutions to accelerate the process of doing business and simplify people’s lives. With intelligent agreement management, Docusign unleashes business-critical data that is trapped inside of documents. Until now, these were disconnected from business systems of record, costing businesses time, money, and opportunity. Using Docusign’s Intelligent Agreement Management platform, companies can create, commit, and manage agreements with solutions created by the #1 company in e-signature and contract lifecycle management (CLM).

What you'll do

As a Senior Software Engineer in the B2B - Business-to-Business engineering organization, you will lead the design and delivery of critical platform capabilities that power Docusign's Intelligent Agreement Management (IAM) vision for enterprise customers. You will design, build, test, deploy, and operate scalable, highly available backend services and APIs that are core to our B2B products, partnering closely with product, architecture, and peer engineering teams across the organization. The Ingestion and Telemetry team: Designs and develops product features targeting both CLM and IAM products for enterprises and businesses. Designs and develops services, infrastructure and libraries to ensure that all B2B services ship with standardized and comprehensive telemetry and monitoring (metrics, logs, traces, alerts). Builds and evolves ingestion flows for agreements and attributes across CLM and IAM, including historical backfill and runtime pipelines that support CLM-IAM convergence use cases (Navigator, Agreement Manager, Party Management, obligation management, etc.). Researches and onboards modern observability technologies and data platforms so that engineering teams across B2B can leverage a unified, enterprise-grade telemetry and ingestion stack. You are comfortable working in a modern cloud environment (Azure and/or AWS), with a focus on performance, reliability, observability, and security. You collaborate well in cross-functional settings and help raise the engineering bar through design leadership, code quality, testing, and knowledge sharing.

This position is an individual contributor role reporting to the Senior Manager, Software Engineering.
