About the role
Who you are
- Deep experience in frontend application development with experience in backend development and API design. You are familiar with the challenges common with browser applications and have a sense of how to balance risks and engineering efforts. You’ve seen many different patterns that work and have developed your own systems and frameworks for evaluating how to approach a new situation. Ideally you have significant experience in React, Typescript, and related tooling and ecosystems
- Experience leading teams through iterative and focused product delivery cycles. You are comfortable validating work with customers and our field team early and often to deliver value over time
- Experience leading teams with software in production. You have extensive experience with technical leadership, defining patterns, and building operational guidelines for your team or domain(s)
- A strong sense of teamwork. You have experience working with a cross-functional team. Our team follows a product triad model composed of design, product, and engineering. You will collaborate with these partners from problem discovery through solution design, delivery, and evaluating success of features post-release. We work through building small changes/experiments and then iterate based on customer interaction
- A flexible mindset. The urgency of product delivery in a scaling business environment sometimes asks us to compromise. We need to ensure that important work gets prioritized while also ensuring that we continually address technical debt. You will consider each situation and help the team to find the right balance
- Clear, open communication. We see clear, thoughtful, and regular written & face-to-face communication (including a willingness to give & receive feedback) as a fundamental engineering skill and one of the strongest predictors of future engineering impact, not just a nice to have, and we hope you do too
- An interest in observability and lessons from your experience supporting production software. We maintain an on-call rotation and work hard to keep that from becoming a bad experience (read about how we track on-call health and count alerts). If you have opinions about how to maintain that, we would like to hear them. If you have struggled with supporting software in production, then we want to fold that experience into the Honeycomb product, too
What the job involves
- As a Staff Product Engineer on the Explore team, you’ll be joining a growing product engineering team with a broad portfolio, helping us to build many of the core flows in the Honeycomb experience.
- Our ownership spans across the primary querying UI along with the family of results generated with each query, like data visualizations, Trace Waterfall, and Bubble Up. Check out our blog for more on some of our recent releases like Relational Fields
- Own technical vision and meaningfully contribute to our product and technical roadmaps. Your questions, opinions and insight will inform our product roadmap. We’re invested in building exciting new features for our customers and striking the balance between robust functionality for our power users and approachability for new users. You’ll also drive a coherent technical vision for the team, and collaborate to set a technical roadmap that helps us navigate the landscape of new technologies, guide technology choice, and adopt best practices
- Inform how we delivery quality software. You will write code across the full application stack, primarily in React, Typescript, and Golang. You’ll deliver impactful features and feature sets that add value for our customers, our team, and Honeycomb overall. You will also plan and lead complex, multi-team, long-term projects, balancing stakeholder needs, customer value, and technical excellence
- Act as a force multiplier within and beyond the team. As a technical leader, you’ll have opportunities to mentor other engineers, including very senior and tenured engineers, in their roles and careers. You’ll pair, review code, and communicate daily with your team, give and receive thoughtful feedback on Pull Requests as you work in our shared code repositories, and act as a multiplier who shares knowledge and delegates to help others grow
- Define and influence. You’ll influence company goals and strategy, potentially identifying new business growth opportunities. You’ll also work to define and model the team’s engineering brand, process, and patterns
Benefits
- 100% covered medical, dental, vision, HSA, FSA, disability, and more
- Unlimited PTO, synchronous company break, paid sabbatical, and expressed minimum for time to recharge
- 401K retirement plans and fully paid life insurance
- Up to 16 weeks paid leave regardless of path to parenthood; flexible hours for returning parents and caregivers
- $10K to cover gaps in insurance, in support of adoption, surrogacy, preservation, and family-planning costs
- $600 per year to spend on the perks you care for most
- A stake in our success
- Generous new hire equity, and refresh grants
- Annual $1,500 development stipend; funding for cognitive coaching; and a focus on career pathing
- $500 new hire home setup stipend and $200/mo for wifi, phone and co-working
