As a Groupon engineering team, we champion entrepreneurship, authenticity, collaboration, and quality. We have a huge impact on our product with great visibility in the organization. Join an industry leader with over 50% of transactions completed on a mobile device in 2015. We are advancing the use of beacon technology in our latest technologies and we continue to grow our business with nearly $6B in gross annual billings. 

On the Release and Production Tools team, we build configuration management solutions that drive the very core of our global platform. We strive to make the building, testing and deploying of services and applications efficient and reliable for the entire engineering organization. Because our team sits at the crossroads of so many different services, we enjoy exposure to a vast number of languages and tools: Java, Node, Ruby, Golang, and more. Polyglot is an understatement. We plan to push the engineering organization forward in three ways:

• Revolutionizing the tools and infrastructure used for Service configuration and management

• Building continuous delivery pipelines, leveraging Jenkins, Docker, and container orchestration to drive a migration towards public cloud

• Expanding the reach of our artifact management solutions for Docker images, NPM packages, Java jars and wars, Ruby gems, and more

In the role of Senior Engineer, you would be tasked with helping to drive forward our vision of a modern global engineering platform. Specifically, you would join the Service Portal team and coordinate with other members of the platform team to design, build, test and deliver tools, frameworks and infrastructure that supports our Service Management. You would raise the Service Portal team up from within by providing detailed feedback on pull requests, helping mentor junior engineers on the team, and increasing product velocity in an agile devops environment. You would work with developers, test engineers, system administrators, and operations to understand their workflows, how to improve and automate them, and how to monitor and alert on failures of the systems that support them. You would be part of a team that offers 24/7 support for the core pieces of Groupon’s infrastructure.
