Our team works to create delightful features, while designing and implementing useful API methods to improve the reliability of our systems. We build our app using reliable tools that our team knows and trusts, including Hack/PHP, MySQL, and Linux.

You will work closely with Product, Design, Backend, and QA to build, test and deploy new features.

DESKTOP

Everyday, millions of people use Slack's desktop application to stay connected and communicate with their teams. Though the application is used by a massive audience, it's created by a surprisingly small group of folks. We're able to pull this off through the use of cross-platform technologies like Electron, Node.js, and React. It doesn't hurt that our engineers are incredibly passionate and talented. Come help us build delightful features and tackle the unique challenges of developing for Windows, macOS, and Linux using web technologies.

INFRASTRUCTURE

Come help make Slack be more performant and reliable for teams of any size around the world. Our team focuses on the building blocks that enable the product engineering teams to build features easier, faster and more reliably. We'll use your knowledge of data structures, algorithms, programming languages, distributed systems, operating systems, and networking to build and troubleshoot complex distributed systems.

CLOUD ENGINEERING

The Cloud Engineering team is responsible for building the network, systems, and software upon which we build Slack. We are a team of tool builders working to provide a secure and reliable base powered by automation. We use Chef, Python, MySQL, memcached, Solr, Apache, Kubernetes, HHVM, Java, Go, and many other technologies, all running in AWS and GCP.

DATA

The Data team helps our analysts, product managers, and customers understand how to make our users' working lives simpler, more pleasant, and more productive. We develop Slack's open-source data infrastructure built on top of Thrift, Kafka, Spark, Druid, Airflow and Vitess and the work will involve creating and scaling batched streaming data pipelines.

AUTOMATION QA

You will develop frameworks, tools, and tests to cover the full depth and breadth of Slack's client-server-side functionality. This includes our desktop and web clients, our iOS and Android clients, our external service integrations, the Slack platform API, and our supporting server infrastructure.
