What You’ll Do
Please note that we have a hybrid approach to work and would like to find someone who can come into our offices in Lisbon (Lagoas Park) at least once per week.
The Engineering Effectiveness team is a team at ThousandEyes with the mission to empower our engineers to be more effective and happier by providing the software solutions, processes, infrastructure, and the support they need to design, implement, test, and operationalize their code quickly and with high quality, at scale. As a Senior Software Engineer on this team, you will have the opportunity to define how we partner with the other engineering teams to provide a productive and frictionless end-to-end developer experience encompassing the entire development, infrastructure, release, and operating lifecycle.
You will design and implement system integrations with our internal developer portal (Backstage), to deliver fully automated solutions for the end-to-end path to Production in a measurable and scalable way. These integrations include surfacing data from multiple systems to give our engineers visibility into all aspects of their service development lifecycle. You will bring your full SDLC experience to help improve our overall engineering processes, testing approaches, deployment pipelines, and operational procedures. You will work with our production and reliability engineering teams to provide and create the tools and frameworks that allow the application teams to properly monitor and alert on their production applications.
We are passionate about optimizing our developer’s end-to-end engineering experience to foster the innovation that allows our company to succeed.

Cisco values the perspectives and skills that emerge from employees with diverse backgrounds. That's why Cisco is expanding the boundaries of discovering top talent by not only focusing on candidates with educational degrees and experience but also placing more emphasis on unlocking potential.

We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification. Research shows that people from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy. We urge you not to prematurely exclude yourself and to apply if you're interested in this work.
