About the Job

Etsy has amazingly interesting and fun data. No really. We not only have millions of items and members, but we have shops, treasuries, blog posts, etc. We have a curated taxonomy as well as mountains of user generated tags.

Responsibilities:

Work on the scalability, resilience, and efficiency of backend components, particularly search
Debug runtime problems and understand the interactions between systems
Build systems, libraries, and frameworks within, around, and on top of search
Help build and manage a large, rapidly growing, heavily used search service, and contribute your work to the open source community
Code using Java, JVM scripting languages, and PHP
Work in a team-oriented environment

You will be successful in this role if you:

Have a BS or MS in Computer Science
Have 5+ years of Java engineering experience
Have experience with production search services
Have an interest in distributed systems
Have interest in learning Hadoop
Have previous success in a performance-critical environment

What’s Next

If you're interested in joining the team at Etsy, please send a cover letter along with your resume telling us what inspires you about Etsy and why you think you are perfect for the team (resumes without a cover letter will not be considered).

If you contribute to an open source project, write a blog, or practice another craft besides software engineering, that means something to us, we’d love to hear about it.

From our HQ in Brooklyn, NY, to our offices around the world, we make it possible for people everywhere to buy and sell unique goods. Community is in Etsy’s DNA, and being connected, a code we live by.
At Etsy, you can do the work you love, be yourself, and take fun seriously. Your teammates become teachers, sharing their skills at Etsy School. Competitive benefits, balanced working hours, and eco-friendly offices are engineered for human beings (not human doings). And everyone’s invited to break bread and make new friends at Eatsy, our locally-sourced communal lunch.
Etsy is the marketplace we make together.

Software Engineer: Continuous Deployment Infrastructure | Etsy, Inc. | Brooklyn, NY, United States

The Software Engineer: Continuous Deployment Infrastructure will work with a team to build the tools that engineers use to deploy code to Etsy.

Etsy is seeking a Software Engineer: Continuous Deployment Infrastructure to join our technical staff. We build tools that enable our engineering team to safely deploy code to the Etsy website. These include the Continuous Integration (CI) system, xUnit frameworks, and functional testing suites. Everyone in the Product and Engineering teams can deploy code into production, on their own. We do this over 30 times every day. Release management is a role in which everyone on the team plays an active part, starting on their first day of work. This full-time position is based in Brooklyn, NY.

About the Team

The technical staff at Etsy believes that code is craft, good software and systems designs are works of art, and that the work we do is part of larger creative culture represented by the hundreds of thousands of inspired makers who make Etsy such a wondrous marketplace. We believe that small, empowered, self-motivated teams can do big things. We also believe in the right tool for the job, not language-as-religion. Our current systems run PHP, Java, Python, Ruby, Solr/Lucene, Postgres, MySQL, and more. Check out our Engineering blog: http://codeascraft.etsy.com/

About the Job

Continuous Deployment at Etsy is a highly organized process which, from a distance, looks like chaos. We build safety into this system. We build consistency, visibility, and confidence. We are all humans and make mistakes, so we actively monitor for failures, allowing the team to quickly right whatever went wrong.

We are programmers and toolsmiths. Given the frequency at which engineers deploy code, we care deeply about simplicity, consistency, and speed in our build pipeline. We profile and tune the performance of tests, fixtures and the CI cluster (Jenkins), and we run it on state-of-the-art hardware.

About You

Programming languages were interesting so you learned a new one whenever you had the chance. People were interesting so you learned to write software that connected people to each other. At some point you realized that mixing technology with people can produce unexpected outcomes. And the unintended consequences of inventing new technologies for people turned out to be the most fascinating thing of all.

You will be successful in this role if you:

See unmastered complexity as a problem to be solved
Have worked extensively with continuous integration systems and you’re equally happy improving an existing CI or configuring a new one from scratch
Know why reading code is important, so you also understand why comprehensibility is essential to the survival of a software project
Are a domain expert in software quality. And you eagerly share your knowledge and your tools with others in your organization, in the interest of building an engineering culture where everyone can ship with confidence

Sr. Software Engineer: iOS | Etsy, Inc. | Brooklyn, NY, United States

The iOS Developer will work with the Mobile team to improve the Etsy experience on the iPhone, and make Etsy available to everyone, on every device.

Etsy is seeking Senior iOS Engineers to join a small, collaborative team that’s responsible for the end-to-end development of our iPhone and iPad apps — supporting our long-term vision of bringing Etsy to every mobile device. This full-time position is based in Brooklyn, NY.

About the Team

Etsy’s Mobile team is set on redefining what mobile, person-to-person commerce means. We are a tight-knit, passionate group that embraces hard work, supports creativity, and dreams big. The ideal candidate will bring energy, creativity, and humor to the team, along with deep expertise and a details-driven approach to their work.

About the Job

You’ll be contributing to the teams that bring Etsy’s global marketplace to Android and iOS devices, with more than 9 million downloads around the world. Our apps allow buyers to discover unique and trending handmade and vintage items from across the marketplace, and provide sellers with the opportunity to run their shops, connect with buyers, and manage their workflow from their smartphones or tablets.

As a senior engineer on the team you will influence not just how we build individual features and products, but also the best practices and patterns we will use for development and automated testing. As we scale mobile app development across more of Etsy’s Engineering team, you’ll help refine our processes and tools to support additional contributors in the codebase.

Some specific details about the role...

Drive feature development for our well-renowned apps for iPhone and iPad, leading small teams of engineers on specific projects and taking ownership of end-to-end product quality.
Lead prototypes of new ideas and explore new technologies on the forefront of mobile technology and commerce.
Contribute to the growth of mobile development across Etsy by working closely with other Product Development teams to improve consistency and and timing of releases across Mobile and Web.
Etsy is well-known for our data-informed product design and use of Continuous Deployment for the Web. You’ll hone these practices for iOS by building out our A/B experimentation framework and implementing practices that support rapid release cycles.
This role isn’t just about writing Objective-C. You’ll also cross paths with PHP, Ruby, Python, Java and Scala in various areas of our technical stacks—e.g. Data Analysis, Search, Developer Tools, Security and Operations.

About You

You have been working in mobile app development in a professional context for at least two years and have a deep familiarity of Objective-C, Cocoa and Xcode. You keep current with best practices for iOS development and are happy to get nerdy about memory management, UI layout and rendering, or network performance. You’ve shipped successful apps to the App Store that you are proud of and that demonstrate your commitment to quality and detail.

End-to-end product development means you understand not just the UI and client development, but also the data model and the API stack. Your years of software engineering outside of native app development prepare you for going deep into Etsy’s stack and working across various teams using a handful of different languages and technologies.

We are building mobile apps that are already used by millions of people on their phones and tablets. You are someone who will approach this with a passion for the end-to-end user experience and empathy for our users, even when that means taking some time away from new product development to focus on polishing UI bugs and troubleshooting crash reports.

What’s Next

We're growing rapidly and are well-funded with a proven business model and established revenue to help us continue growing and serving our community. If you're interested in joining the team at Etsy, please send a cover letter along with your resume, telling us what inspires you about Etsy and why you think you are perfect for the team (applications without a cover letter will not be considered). If you write a blog, or practice another craft besides leading the development of beautiful, functional websites and apps, that means something to us, and we would love to hear about it!

Software Engineer: Natural Language Processing | Etsy, Inc. | Brooklyn, NY, United States

We’re looking for talented Software Engineers to build tools that help independent artists from over 150 countries market their products worldwide in any language.

Etsy is seeking a Software Engineer to join our Machine Translation project. With millions of buyers and sellers from around the globe, Etsy is striving to build the platform that enables small businesses around the world to sell on the global market. This is a full-time position in Brooklyn, NY.

About the Team

The technical staff at Etsy believes that code is craft, good software and systems designs are works of art, and that the work we do is part of larger creative culture represented by the hundreds of thousands of inspired artists and designers who make Etsy such a wondrous marketplace. We believe in a global-first approach to products and engineering. We believe that small, empowered, self-motivated teams can do big things. We also believe in the right tool for the job, not language-as-religion. Our current systems run PHP, Java, Python, Ruby, Solr/Lucene, Postgres, MySQL, and more. Check out our Engineering blog: http://codeascraft.etsy.com/.

About the Job

We designed the Etsy platform to make interactions and transactions seamless across the globe. However, one of the biggest obstacles for a truly international marketplace is the language barrier. As a member of the Machine Translation team you will help architect and implement the integration of MT technology within the Etsy website, in order to help our users overcome this obstacle. Anywhere there is language — product listings, forum posts, user feedback — is a potential spot for MT integration. In addition, we are exploring other linguistic solutions, and you will interact with other teams to determine the best tool for each task.

We work in a state of constant iteration and evolution. Our engineers collaborate with product managers and designers to identify and implement the most direct path to a successful product. We work quickly, using our Continuous Deployment architecture to push code to production at any time (you will push code on your first day!). From there, we use our in-house analytics stack to gather quantitative data, combining that with qualitative feedback from our users, to determine our next iteration. Once we’re sure that our work is the best it can be, we launch incrementally with a high degree of confidence.

Responsibilities:

Integrate machine translation API into customer-facing experiences
Create new tools to help enable user interaction across the language barrier
Run experiments on text data to help understand our user-generated content
Work with product management, designers, and data team to scope, build, and instrument projects

About You

You’re an engineer who can turn ideas into extremely fast and reliable code that other people – or you, six months into the future – will find easy to comprehend and modify. You are knowledgeable about language processing, and are familiar with basic natural language issues for the major world languages. You believe in the Etsy’s vision of a human-driven economy, and are passionate about making our buyers and sellers more productive, successful, and happy.

You will be successful in this role if you:

Have a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science with an emphasis on Natural Language Processing, or Linguistics with an emphasis on Computational Linguistics
Care as much about building great products as you do writing great code
Have worked with Machine Translation systems
Have experience integrating and working with various NLP tools, such as sentence tokenizers, word segmenters, parsers, language detectors, and language models
Are proficient with at least one natural language other than English, and have familiarity with a few others
Have excellent written and verbal communication skills
Can be autonomous and self-driven
Help others around you grow as developers and be successful
Enjoy learning about and interacting with the people who use your product

What's Next

If you're interested in joining the team, please send us your resume, work samples and a cover letter. We'll read every word. Etsy is a place that values individuality and variety, so use your judgment and write to us in your own voice.

Software Engineer: Seller Experience | Etsy, Inc. | Brooklyn, NY, United States

We’re looking for talented Software Engineers to build tools that help independent artists turn their creativity into thriving businesses.

Etsy is seeking Software Engineers to join our Seller Experience team. With over a million shops selling on Etsy, we strive to build powerful and elegant tools that power creative businesses from around the globe. This is a full-time position in Brooklyn, NY.

About the Team

The technical staff at Etsy believes that code is craft, good software and systems designs are works of art, and that the work we do is part of larger creative culture represented by the hundreds of thousands of inspired artists and designers who make Etsy such a wondrous marketplace. We believe that small, empowered, self-motivated teams can do big things. We also believe in the right tool for the job, not language-as-religion. Our current systems run PHP, Java, Python, Ruby, Solr/Lucene, Postgres, MySQL, and more. Check out our Engineering blog: http://codeascraft.etsy.com/

About the Job

Etsy sellers are inspired makers, artists and curators. But, sometimes the day-to-day work of running an independent business can get in the way of that inspiration. Our mission is to make selling on Etsy easy and efficient so our sellers can focus on what they love most. As a member of the Seller Experience team, you’ll help architect and implement the tools our sellers use to run their businesses. You’ll work directly with product managers, designers, and other engineers on small project-based teams that are part of a larger initiative. We like small working groups, and we keep the work varied and interesting.

We love our seller community, and we love making personal connections with the people who use our products. As an engineer, you’ll get direct feedback from the people who benefit from your work every day. You’ll also have opportunities to interact with our sellers, both online and in person. Our doctrine of “Code as Craft” means that we take great pride in the satisfaction of the people we serve.

We work in a state of constant iteration and evolution. Our engineers collaborate with product managers and designers to identify and implement the most direct path to a successful product.

From there, we use our in-house analytics stack to gather quantitative data, combining that with qualitative feedback from our users, to determine our next iteration. Once we’re sure that our work is the best it can be, we launch incrementally with a high degree of confidence.

We touch all parts of the Etsy web stack, from PHP, MySQL and Memcache on the server side, to rich client-side experiences using jQuery, Backbone.js and plain ol’ JavaScript and HTML5. For heavier lifting, we send work to Gearman for async processing. Everything that happens on the site is logged and sent to Hadoop, and you can write a Scalding job to find out whatever you need. As a full stack engineer, you’ll have access to all of these systems and more.

About You

You’re an engineer who can turn ideas into extremely fast and reliable code that other people – or you, six months into the future – will find easy to comprehend and modify. You believe in the Etsy’s vision of a human-driven economy, and are passionate about making our sellers more productive, successful, and happy.
You will be successful in this role if you:

Care as much about building great products as you do writing great code
Have worked with and have strong opinions about multiple JavaScript frameworks
Are as comfortable working with event handlers on the client side as you are writing SQL queries on the server side
Have a knack for organization and breaking down large problems into smaller ones
Have excellent written and verbal communication skills
Can be autonomous and self-driven
Help others around you grow as developers and be successful
Enjoy learning about and interacting with the people who use your product

What’s Next

If you're interested in joining the team, please send us your resume. You won’t be surprised to hear, though, that we won’t consider it without a cover letter.

If you have a presence on the web that we can easily access (Github, Twitter, Facebook, rap sheet), contribute to an open source project, write a blog, or practice another craft besides building beautiful, functional websites, that means something to us, we’d love to hear about it.

Etsy is looking for a Search Relevance Engineer to join the Search Team to improve the state of the art with search and discovery on Etsy by analyzing user data and building classifiers and algorithms that connect buyers and sellers in meaningful ways using a range of techniques.
This is a job for someone with a background in Information Retrieval, Machine Learning or Statistics and someone who’s ego is tied to the end product, not the process.

About the Team

The Search Team creates the best experiences for our buyers and optimizes performance for our sellers. Our work focuses on improvements to search ranking, query understanding, spelling correction, auto completion and query intent recognition.

Across the team we work at various times on hard systems problems and bit fiddling to tune performance, staring at data trying to find out why poor quality search results are showing up, or working with designers to make beautiful usable interfaces so that we can have a better conversation with our users.

About You

You consider critical thinking to be among your core competencies. Rigor is important to you. You are prone to quixotic behavior. You dedicate time and effort communicating nuance to Manichaeans. Honesty, integrity, and a firm grip on reality are much more important to you than being right. You recognize the inherent limitations of your own wetware, and you do your best to work around them. You find argument exhilarating.

We’d love to hear from you if you have

a strong background in Machine Learning, Statistics or Information Retrieval
experience with large data sets, Hadoop, MapReduce, Cascading or Scalding
experience programming in languages like Java or Scala
experience working with large-scale distributed systems
experience with Lucene/Solr or similar IR systems.
an interest in user-facing product development and design
an understanding of A/B testing and statistical measurement
a strong background in visual and written communication

Most importantly, however, we’d like to hear from you if you are thoughtful and you ship.

Whats Next

If you’re into Etsy and think you’d be able to contribute to the search team send in a resume with a cover letter. We’d love to get a link to your github repo or see some examples of past work and what you’re interested in.

Engineering Manager: Mobile Apps | Etsy, Inc. | Brooklyn, NY, United States

The Engineering Manager: Mobile Apps will lead a team in the development and implementation of large-scale mobile apps.

Etsy is seeking an Engineering Manager: Mobile Apps to join our Mobile Apps team. As Etsy's Mobile team grows, we are looking for a technical manager to guide our native apps team—providing vision and direction for planning, building, and maintaining large-scale mobile apps across multiple native platforms.

About the Team

The Mobile Apps team plays a key role in extending the Etsy marketplace to new platforms and markets—connecting buyers and sellers from anywhere in the world, on any device. This is a tight-knit, passionate group, set on enhancing the relationship between buyers and sellers via mobile devices. Working alongside Etsy's quickly moving web team, we are adopting a fast-release process, running A/B tests and prototypes, and seeking ways to increase contributions from our web team to our native app platforms.

About the Job

Engineering managers at Etsy play a small part in the hands-on process of building software, but a very large part in building a team and orchestrating the work of individual members. You'll lead the day-to-day work of the Mobile Apps team, playing multiple roles.

This is a management-track position. The primary focus of this role is building a team and facilitating their ability to ship. Contributing production-facing code is extremely low on the responsibility list. (If you want to spend your day writing code, we have other awesome opportunities for that!)

Responsibilities:

Manager for project, sprint, and milestone planning
Creator of focus and inspiration
Builder of careers and individual development
Maintainer of happiness
Chief Un-blocker
Getter of answers
Facilitator of decisions
Social coordinator (from time to time)

About You

You have a vision for what mobile at Etsy can be and how mobile can be used to grow Etsy’s buyer and seller audiences internationally.

You will be successful in this role if you:

Have experience working with teams building products for iOS or Android.
Understand the limits of individuals and recognize the advantages of building cohesive teams.
Have a keen awareness of how all of the pieces fit together—at both the architectural level in how high-quality software is built and the product level where the end result has to make sense.
Have prior experience building and running consumer-facing web sites or apps.

What’s Next

If you're interested in joining the team at Etsy, please send a cover letter along with your resume telling us what inspires you about Etsy and why you think you are perfect for the team (resumes without a cover letter will not be considered). If you contribute to an open source project, write a blog, or practice another craft besides software engineering, that means something to us, we’d love to hear about it.

Creating usable tools for our end users of the cluster to make their lives easier and helping others use the cluster is a big part of this teams initiative.

About the Job

As a manager, you will provide direction and vision for maintaining, improving and extending our Hadoop infrastructure; drive execution of infrastructure and platform changes; influence organization-wide development and deployment practices on the cluster; and keep Etsy at its best.

About You

Are well versed in programming and development principles

Bonus Attributes:

a solid understanding of how to tune the JVM and Hadoop
experience managing geographically distributed teams
experience managing a Hadoop project elsewhere

What’s Next

If you're interested in joining the team, please send us your resume. You won’t be surprised to hear, though, that we won’t consider it without a cover letter. Let us know how you fit the bill for each of our requirements above. Etsy is a place that values individuality and variety, so use your judgment and write to us in your own voice. If you have a presence on the web that we can easily access (Twitter, Facebook, rap sheet), contribute to an open source project, write a blog, or practice another craft besides designing beautiful, functional websites, that means something to us, we’d love to hear about it.
