What is it like to work for Intercom?

Our culture is open, friendly and inclusive — and this is something we are proud of. We are optimistic, passionate and positive. We like people who can stay focused with good work / life balance, and who are kind and humble but will speak their mind. We like to experiment, sometimes inventing things for the first time, but we stay pragmatic, starting small and focusing on the problem. We love people who genuinely want to learn and grow, and we take bets on helping people unlock the next step in their career. We’re opinionated by default, for example we run less software and ship continuously. We’re technically conservative and like to keep it simple, but where it means building better products we’ll double down on new technology in a pragmatic way.

What's the opportunity? 🤔

Come help us build a world-changing product, a long-lasting company, and the most effective R&D team possible. We want to build an organisation where people thrive, grow in their careers, and enjoy having high impact through their work and we need experienced engineering managers to help us grow.

As an Engineering Manager in our Infrastructure Services Group, you’ll shape a vision, strategy and roadmap for your team aimed at helping us enable the growth of the business. You’ll lead and support an ambitious group of engineers working on projects to accelerate product teams throughout the web UI lifecycle (from development to production), empowering them to experiment, build and iterate quickly so they can ship and learn fast.

We've previously published posts on the success we've had evolving our core-technologies and on the evolution of Ember at Intercom.
