Senior Software Engineer [Java]

Customers have changed. In the new Subscription Economy® (a phrase coined by our CEO, Tien Tzuo) customers are happier subscribing to the outcomes they want, when they want them, rather than purchasing a product with the burden of ownership. We believe that one day, every company will be part of the Subscription Economy.

Zuora’s leading SaaS subscription relationship management platform helps enable businesses in any industry to launch or shift products to a subscription model and open new revenue streams. Our growth story is far from over and our Engineering team is pivotal in shifting and supporting the way the world does business. We’re looking for an innovative Senior Java Engineer to build the next generation of our cloud-based multi-tenant platform services.

As a Senior Software Engineer on our growing platform team you’ll be responsible for full system development including design, coding, and deployment of our platform services. We define Platform as the underlying software infrastructure that is mission critical to us internally as well as to our customers. You’ll take on challenges like providing a uniform querying layer that joins multiple database technologies as well as projects that include extending Zuora’s data model by allowing per-tenant schema modifications of standard objects with extra fields. You’ll also tackle our event and notification system that captures all changes to Zuora’s business objects, which is a near real-time data synchronization framework that transfers Zuora data to external systems, 3rd party systems and much much more.

What you’ll achieve:

• Design and develop highly flexible common components and APIs that enable the build of custom solutions that will be used across our company

• Interact with software architects and senior developers to design application modules using object-oriented design methods

• Design and construct integrations allowing the exchange of data with remote systems using Java RESTful services

• Work closely with QA engineers to design, implement and build and test automations using JUnit, Apex Test Methods and Selenium

What you’ll need to be successful:

• 7+ years of designing and implementing innovative and exemplary B2B and B2C applications using JVM based technologies

• Working knowledge of modern web technologies including cloud based APIs and protocols (SOAP, REST, JSON)

• Experience developing innovative, groundbreaking apps on a PaaS with strong database and object modelling skills

• A passion and and knowledge base for exploring and experimenting with the latest application development technologies

• Disciplined self-starter, able to be highly productive both working alone and in close collaboration within an agile development team

• Tons of great ideas, the ability to bring them to life (or sometimes fail but learn a lot in the process) and a love for solving hard problems

• BA/BS in Computer Science or similar technical degree or equivalent experience
