Job Description

At Qualtrics, we create software the world's best brands use to deliver exceptional frontline experiences, build high-performing teams, and design products people love. But we are more than a platform—we are the creators and stewards of the Experience Management category serving over 18K clients globally. Building a category takes grit, determination, and a disdain for convention—but most of all it requires close-knit, high-functioning teams with an unwavering dedication to serving our customers.

The Ecosystem Engineering organization is committed to providing world-class developer tooling that enables the creation of business-critical solutions and extensions on the Qualtrics platform. We are looking for a staff software engineer who is comfortable with high degrees of ambiguity and is proficient at designing scalable systems, mentoring junior engineers, and acting as a technical leader as our team pushes the Qualtrics PaaS product to the next level.

You'll be working with data visualization, using AI to accelerate customer value, and building simple solutions to solve hard customer problems. You'll be designing systems in an agile environment to withstand growth and owning quality from end to end. You'll collaborate closely with platform teams to ensure our products are tightly integrated and consistent with Qualtrics platform behavior, while having the flexibility to choose our own architecture and the independence to quickly deliver on our business vision.

The role offers an amazing opportunity to drive your career development and build a strong foundational understanding across Qualtrics systems. You'll benefit from working with other great engineers, UX designers, and product managers while learning how the world's leading companies use data and analytics to improve their customer experience.

The position includes excellent benefits such as medical/dental/vision insurance, an annual experience bonus, QED program allowing engineers to spend up to 10% of time on individual projects, personalized career planning, and equity sharing in Qualtrics' success.
