About the team
Our Product Growth team is looking for a Software Engineer who is excited to experiment, learn, and build features that help our users discover the value of Octopus faster.
Alongside three engineers, Product Manager, Product Designer, Engineering Manager, and Product Marketing Manager, you’ll get to work collaboratively on a broad range of product-led projects that make Octopus easier to adopt, like Preconfigured Sample Project and Improve deployment step selection.
As a Software Engineer in Product Growth, you'll help break down and deliver projects and collaborate with your team to measure their impact and success using data and metrics.

A typical day might include:

• Working where you work best, in a home office designed by you, using a device of your choosing, with or without music, in an atmosphere you create for yourself.
• Changing source code hosted in GitHub, most of it in the open, collaborating on a pull request, then shipping a release to customers worldwide via an automated build, test, and delivery pipeline, often within the same day.
• Handling an inbound support ticket from a customer, helping them succeed with Octopus, or offering advice to a customer in our community Slack workspace.
• Pairing with another software engineer or a support engineer to help them reproduce a tricky problem, helping them understand the inner workings of Octopus in the process so they can be more helpful to even more customers over time.
• Pairing with another engineer on a Zoom call to solve a complex technical problem or design a new feature.
• Fixing a bug using an approach like red-green-refactor to prevent customers from experiencing that bug again.
• Improving our documentation to help customers discover solutions for themselves and learn how to use Octopus for more complicated workflows.
• Writing a blog post about something interesting for other developers or explaining a new feature of Octopus.

You will be a great fit for this role if:

• You have a firm grasp of the software trade using any language or toolset, preferably C# and TypeScript.
• You are comfortable making good decisions with general concepts like dependency, extensibility, and compatibility, and perhaps you are a specialist in a specific area of software engineering.
• You enjoy automating builds, tests, deployments, infrastructure, and operational tasks.
• You enjoy working in a "you built it, you run it" culture, where teams take pride in the quality of their work and the availability of their systems, with many people joining our humane on-call program.
• You can work independently, motivating yourself to do high-quality work on time and communicating with your teammates when you need help or are ready for something new.
• You enjoy collaborating with other people to solve problems, challenging each other to discover the best solution for a problem using a balance of passion, pragmatism, and empathy.
• You are a results-oriented person, focused on iteratively delivering valuable things to your customers, willingly changing direction based on clear and transparent business information, and someone who helps others do the sa
