Software Engineer - Java and Data
See yourself at Twilio
Join the team as Twilio’s next Software Engineer within Commerce Platform - Billing Insights Team.
About the job
This position will be part of a team of talented engineers within our Commerce Platform - Billing Insights Team, who build services and products that operate at a massive scale. This platform is central to Twilio's core business as it is responsible for correctly taxing and billing our customers, while it also acts as the gateway for discovering and selling our products. The team is working toward building a platform for the future that hides the complexity that comes from complex, distributed financial systems.
The successful candidate will design, build, and operate core platform services that help transition our platform to the next generation architecture. These services work for all Twilio customers, regardless of their scale and billing complexity.
This position is needed to build high-quality, innovative and fully performing software that complies with coding standards and technical design. This is to build and integrate services that continuously improve our ability to provide products to customers while simultaneously delivering industry leading availability. We do this by leveraging technologies that include AWS cloud infrastructure and APIs, Apache Kafka, Rest APIs (OpenAPI compliance), while also building our own services.
Responsibilities
In this role, you’ll:
Improve your knowledge of highly available and scalable distributed systems and use this knowledge to build new features into our platform.
Design, implement, and operate both new features on our current services as well as new services that will be built from scratch.
Leverage your excellent communication and written skills to articulate the 'why' of the solution you are proposing, and have a good understanding of your team’s priorities and the customer impact.
Troubleshoot and fix operational issues and have the opportunity to improve the troubleshooting procedures and tools.
Execute full software development life cycle (SDLC).
Develop flowcharts and documentation to identify solutions.
Write well-designed, testable code.
Document and maintain software functionality.
Troubleshoot, debug and upgrade existing systems.
Qualifications
Twilio values diverse experiences from all kinds of industries, and we encourage everyone who meets the required qualifications to apply. If your career is just starting or hasn't followed a traditional path, don't let that stop you from considering Twilio. We are always looking for people who will bring something new to the table!
Required:
As a Commerce Platform engineer, you will design and build core platform services, REST APIs and take part in transitioning our platform to next generation architecture. We run on AWS cloud infrastructure and use AWS cloud data store, EKS, Glue, Kafka, Aurora RDS etc.

Collaborating with internal/external teams/engineers and fostering an inclusive environment, where all points of view are welcomed and encouraged.
Own and lead multiple domains of the platform (microservices, REST APIs, infrastructure) from inception to deployment and maintenance, while making best in class technical decisions that impact the success of the company.
Familiarity in Cloud Solutions, AWS, Kubernetes/EKS, CI/CD pipelines, Testing & Automation.
Self drive - you take complete ownership of your tasks and champion efforts to get your tasks to completion.
Clear written and spoken communication skills.
