Software Engineer, Internal Platform
WHY WE'RE LOOKING FOR YOU
Retool started as a way to address obstacles with internal tools and has grown into a company that solves internal tooling for thousands of companies (big and small). We've done a lot with a little-we have a growing engineering team and a laundry list of features and foundational improvements we want to tackle.
To continue our fast-paced growth, we need to build a world-class engineering team. You'll help us get there by owning end-to-end projects, talking with customers, and ultimately supporting the growth of Retool-the product and the business.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
The Internal Platform team at Retool empowers engineering teams to ship good software faster by providing strong defaults, shared building blocks, and clear paths to best practices in production across both the backend and frontend.
IN THIS ROLE, YOU WILL:
• Own the foundational systems and tooling of our core codebase.
• Collaborate with product engineering teams to identify their platform needs and provide solutions.
• Evangelize best practices for software development, testing, and deployment.
• Lead and contribute to high-impact projects, including:
• Building primitives for reliable and efficient database access
• Upleveling our feature-flagging system
• Enhancing our testing harnesses (backend, frontend, end-to-end, visual regression)
• Making large-scale changes across our codebase to improve code quality (such as type safety)
THE SKILLSET YOU'LL BRING
• 3+ years of experience as an individual contributor on fast-moving engineering teams.
• Ability to debug complex systems and identify root causes of issues across the stack.
• Experience with TypeScript and Node ecosystems.
• Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, for technical and non-technical audiences.
• Familiarity with monitoring and logging tools to ensure system health and performance.
• Strong understanding of system availability, resiliency, and recoverability.
• Strong organizational skills with high attention to detail, and able to work independently with minimal supervision.
• A demonstrated history of cultivating productive, collaborative relationships both within engineering organizations and across the broader company.
BONUS POINTS
• Experience with Bazel (preferred but not required).
• Experience with cloud-based infrastructure like Azure, AWS, or GCP, along with Kubernetes, Helm, and Terraform.
