What's the opportunity? 🤔
Messenger is Intercom’s flagship product that powers hundreds of millions of conversations a month, reaching billions of unique people worldwide. Our ambition is to bring an AI-powered messenger-first experience to all business-to-customer communication. You will join the team as a full-stack product engineer, someone who solves real customer problems through a smart and efficient application of your technical knowledge. You’ll be part of a multidisciplinary product team, where you will work closely with designers, product managers, researchers, and data analysts.
What will I be doing? 🚀
- Work in a cross-functional team with design and product.
- Develop technical plans and contribute to scaling our products to serve tens of millions of people every day.
- Be involved in the full software lifecycle across the entire stack, by contributing in design meetings, providing feedback, collaborating with other engineers to execute and deploying projects in production.
- Be part of a collaborative, inclusive, and supportive team culture focused on fast, focused, high-impact execution.
What skills do I need? 📖
- 5+ years of industry experience in a software engineering role, preferably building a SaaS product. You can demonstrate the significant impact your work has had on the product and/or the team.

- Great people are effective and learn what we use quickly (or introduce us to better ways of working).
- Extensive experience building and maintaining large React applications.
