Meet the Team: Air Traffic Controller - Customer Journey Engage Group

We own the decision layer of the Unified Engagement Platform - the system that decides which in-app nudges customers see, when, and why. Our mission is to help users reach their goals through timely, data-driven engagement. We’re a relatively new team evolving our Beta into an intelligent orchestration engine with diverse, cross-team opportunities.

In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to:

• Write and ship impactful production code that directly contributes to both user satisfaction and company growth
• Design, build, and evaluate new features and tools that drive revenue and help businesses grow better
• Collaborate in a diverse, cross-functional team of engineers, PMs, designers, and researchers, where everyone's input is valued
• Work closely with different teams across HubSpot, from product to research, to ensure a seamless experience for our users
• Help SMBs achieve their goals through enhancements you’ve brought to life in our products
• Gain a deep understanding of how HubSpot functions as a business, positioning yourself for both personal and professional growth

Who You Are:

We’re not looking for specific tech stacks – we’re looking for passionate problem solvers who are excited to make an impact. You might be a great fit if you:

• Have backend development experience and are comfortable working with Java, MySQL, AWS, DropWizard, Kafka, Kubernetes, or similar technologies (though expertise in specific tools isn’t a deal-breaker)
• Are deeply user-focused and empathetic, understanding the challenges our customers face and how they move through our product
• Enjoy tackling both technical challenges and business problems, and thrive when you’re close to the action in our go-to-market strategies
• Are excited about leveraging AI and data science in real-world, practical applications
• Hold yourself to a high standard of code quality and take accountability for delivery
• Collaborate well with others, take ownership of your work, and are eager to "figure things out" in a supportive, innovative environment
• Have demonstrated the ability to solve complex technical problems while weighing tradeoffs, with a deep understanding of developer experience and business needs
