About Glean:
 
Founded in 2019, Glean is an innovative AI-powered knowledge management platform designed to help organizations quickly find, organize, and share information across their teams. By integrating seamlessly with tools like Google Drive, Slack, and Microsoft Teams, Glean ensures employees can access the right knowledge at the right time, boosting productivity and collaboration. The company’s cutting-edge AI technology simplifies knowledge discovery, making it faster and more efficient for teams to leverage their collective intelligence.
 
Glean was born from Founder & CEO Arvind Jain’s deep understanding of the challenges employees face in finding and understanding information at work. Seeing firsthand how fragmented knowledge and sprawling SaaS tools made it difficult to stay productive, he set out to build a better way - an AI-powered enterprise search platform that helps people quickly and intuitively access the information they need. Since then, Glean has evolved into the leading Work AI platform, combining enterprise-grade search, an AI assistant, and powerful application- and agent-building capabilities to fundamentally redefine how employees work.

  • Write robust code that’s efficient, easy to read, maintain and test
  • Mentor more junior engineers or learn from battle tested ones

About you:

  • BA/BS in computer science, or related degree
  • Experience of building and shipping scalable features in the backend

Key knowledge and skills

  • Thrive in a customer-focused, tight-knit and cross-functional environment
  • A proactive and positive attitude to lead, learn, troubleshoot and take ownership of both small tasks and large features
  • A user-centric and empathetic mentality for building products
  • Experience in building scalable & maintainable backend systems
  • Love authoring easy-to-hold and future-proof REST APIs, OpenAPI is a plus
  • Experience building distributed CRUD level functionality, ideally both SQL and NoSQL
  • Comfortable in or desire to master Golang and Java 

Compensation & Benefits:
