Role Description

As a Product Engineer at OTC, you will play a crucial role in designing, developing, and maintaining AI-powered software applications. You will work closely with cross-engineering teams, product managers, data scientists, and ML engineers, to build robust and scalable solutions that deliver exceptional value to our clients. In this role, you will have the opportunity to design and implement large scale distributed systems with a focus on reliability and performance. This is a 0→1 environment and we’re trying to define the next generation of AI products at Dropbox.

Our Engineering Career Framework is viewable by anyone outside the company and describes what’s expected for our engineers at each of our career levels. Check out our blog post on this topic and more here.

Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with product managers and other engineering teams to understand business requirements and translate them into technical specifications for AI-powered software applications.

  • Design algorithms to optimize data ingestion, handle third party rate limits, sync throughput and performance.

  • Work together with a high performing team to implement platform capabilities to build third party integrations faster. 

  • Drive improvements in key metrics such as sync success rate, sync throughput, data completeness and data freshness.

  • Enable enterprises to build their own custom connectors using our indexing APIs and custom connector capabilities

  • Participate in code reviews, knowledge sharing sessions, and provide mentorship to junior team members, fostering a collaborative and growth-oriented culture.

Many teams at Dropbox run Services with on-call rotations, which entails being available for calls during both core and non-core business hours. If a team has an on-call rotation, all engineers on the team are expected to participate in the rotation as part of their employment. Applicants are encouraged to ask for more details of the rotations to which the applicant is applying.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of relevant experience 

  • Strong interpersonal skills to lead your projects cross-functionally

  • Strong proficiency in backend development technologies such as Golang and Python.

  • Experience building large distributed systems at scale. 

  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to translate user requirements into practical frontend solutions.

  • Leading a sub team of intermediate to junior engineers and providing them with technical direction on complex projects.

  • Excellent communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams and present technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.

Preferred Qualifications

  • BA/BS in computer science, or related degree

  • Strong coding experience with Golang and Python

  • Experience with building third party app integrations

  • Excited about building 0→1. Comfortable with ambiguity and pivoting in direction

  • Not satisfied with status quo. Great at finding problems and addressing them proactively
