Product Engineer jobs in San Francisco, CA

The Role

Software Engineers at Opto are tasked with the challenge of turning complex business problems into elegant and pragmatic engineering solutions. We are context-driven, customer- and stakeholder-empathetic builders of tools and systems. We are end-to-end owners of engineering problems and solutions who constantly challenge one another to evolve as builders and collaborators. Oh, and we have fun along the way, because otherwise, what's the point?

Our tech stack consists of a React-based Next.js Typescript application that sits atop a Multi-Service Architecture that relies on Java Spring and Python FastAPI containerized services running in Amazon AWS. Data flows through Kafka for event-driven applications and is persisted in RDS-managed Postgres instances. Vendor data ingestion is managed via serverless Spark-Scala transformations persisted to an S3 data lake. We strive to achieve componentization, abstraction, and separation of concerns in order that we achieve modularity, scalability, and team-level service ownership.
