At Yext, Product Engineering builds and evolves the technology behind our products and services. We’re looking for software engineers who want to solve meaningful technical problems, contribute to systems at scale, and help shape what we build next.
We work in an agile environment with two-week sprints and regular demos that keep teams aligned and give engineers clear visibility into the impact of their work. From day one, you’ll contribute directly to the codebase and collaborate with experienced engineers from a wide range of leading universities and technology companies.
We are looking for an engineer to join Team Hedwig, which owns and maintains shared systems and architecture across our customer platform. The team builds systems that enable Yext to seamlessly integrate data and experiences across our products. One of the most visible examples is our Action Center, a single destination in the platform that helps customers leverage AI and complete the tasks they need to get the most value from their Yext account.
Because Hedwig’s systems sit in front of many Yext products, engineers on the team work on high-traffic, broadly shared infrastructure. This gives engineers excellent opportunities to develop experience building reliable systems with reusable interfaces and to learn how to build systems that can degrade gracefully when unexpected failures occur.
This role is based in our New York City office, where in-person collaboration plays an important part in how our teams work, learn, and build relationships. We’re looking for people who genuinely value that environment and are comfortable coming into the office at least three days per week. At the same time, we don’t prescribe specific in-office days and want employees to have the flexibility to handle personal needs without disrupting their work or team collaboration.
