About Kustomer

Kustomer is the industry leading conversational CRM platform perfecting every customer experience.  Built with intelligent tools such as AI and Automation, no code-configuration and a connected data platform that unifies data from multiple sources through a single timeline, Kustomer empowers businesses to operate with greater efficiency and deliver more personalized service to customers across any channel, making every interaction more meaningful and memorable. Today, Kustomer is the core platform for leading brands like Abercrombie, Nuts.com, Skims, Turo, Priceline and Sweetgreen.

Kustomer was founded in 2015 by serial entrepreneurs Brad Birnbaum and Jeremy Suriel and has raised over $200M in funding backed by leading VCs. Meta announced its intention to acquire Kustomer in 2020 and completed the transaction in 2022. Kustomer joined Meta’s Business Messaging Group to transform the way people and businesses communicate through modern messaging channels.  In 2023, Kustomer spun out from Meta as a standalone company backed by original partners, Battery, Redpoint and Boldstart Ventures, who have invested $60M in capital, ensuring Kustomer’s growth and success for many years to come. 

Our Krew is made up of passionate and collaborative people who really care about what they do and the people they help. We look for people who are dedicated to enhancing the customer service experience for everyone involved, as it's the core of what we do. We're growing our business with no plans of slowing down. We actively seek individuals who want to learn and be challenged every day. Kustomer has a strong NYC presence and is also a remote friendly company, with Krew members located throughout the US and United Kingdom. We believe in togetherness to help foster strong relationships, collaboration and communication, and our Krew  gets together for both KKO and Kamp Kustomer  each year.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Full Stack Engineer to join our Product Engineering team and help build the core experiences that define how users interact with Kustomer. This is a hands-on role focused on delivering real impact through high-quality, user-facing features.

You will work across the stack, shipping new capabilities, improving performance, and contributing to the evolution of our architecture using technologies like Node.js, React, Golang, and AWS. You will be expected to take full ownership of your work and collaborate closely with teammates in engineering, product, and design.

AI plays an important role in how we build. You should be comfortable using AI tools to accelerate development, validate your work, and improve overall code quality. You will also contribute to AI-powered product features where they can meaningfully improve the end-user experience.

If you thrive in a product-focused environment, care deeply about engineering craft, and are excited by the intersection of great software and intelligent systems, we would love to hear from you.

What We're Seeking

We seek engineers who combine technical excellence with genuine passion for their craft. Our ideal candidate is someone who approaches challenges with curiosity and intrinsic motivation; working on problems not just because they're assigned, but because they find the work genuinely engaging and meaningful.

You should be someone who is naturally detail-oriented, professional, and brings a structured approach to your work while remaining open-minded and adaptable to new technologies and methodologies. We value candidates who work hard and maintain high personal standards, driven by ambition to grow both technically and professionally.

Most importantly, we're looking for engineers who are passionate about the technology space we operate in, particularly AI and automation. You should be excited about the problems we're solving and eager to contribute to innovative solutions that push the boundaries of what's possible.

If you're someone who takes ownership of your work, approaches challenges with intellectual curiosity, and thrives in environments where your passion for technology can directly impact product development, we'd love to hear from you.

What You’ll Do:

• Design, develop, and deploy robust and scalable full-stack web applications using Node.js, React, Golang, MongoDB, and AWS

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including product managers, designers, and other engineers, to understand project requirements and translate them into technical solutions.

• Build efficient and reusable backend and frontend components and libraries

• Develop APIs and integrate with external services and databases, ensuring data integrity and security

• Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code follow
