At Northwestern Mutual, we are strong, innovative and growing. We invest in our people. We care and make a positive difference. Software Engineer I - Backend What's the Role? As a software engineer - you'll be working on the Platform Engineering Team, building a modern application platform to host our company's growing suite of micro apps. You'll code in NodeJS/TypeScript daily, alongside modern tech, such as AWS, NGINX, Lua, and a robust CI/CD pipeline. Your day-to-day will be back-end development, although we may touch react from time-to-time. Our clients are your fellow engineers, building microapps, dashboards and UI to service the financial representatives and other employees of Northwestern Mutual. Help us build the gateways, identity, and data microservices that hundreds of these apps depend upon. You'll solve complex problems, collaborating with both architects and designers to deliver the platform. Those Buzz Words: Full Stack, NodeJS, Typescript, Proxies, AWS Cloud infrastructure, NGINX, Lua, NodeJS/TypeScript, React, CI/CD pipeline, Agile, Terraform, Azure, Authentication, Authorization, Caching, Encryption, Cloud Services What We Can't Live Without: <ul><li>Strong JavaScript experience building backend NodeJS micro-services. (TypeScript a plus) </li><li>You're comfortable building web apps or microservices and deploying them with git & pipelines </li><li>You're open to learning new tech, and new areas of full stack that you're not familiar with. Maybe that's React, Kubernetes, AWS, or DevOps in general. We're willing to teach you, but you should be ready to learn</li><li>Self-motivated and driven. A team player that effectively works well with other engineers, product owners, and non-technical roles. Strong communication skills with those same people</li><li>1+ years of engineering experience</li></ul> Nice To Haves: <ul><li>Any experience in AWS, such as Dynamo, S3, Elasticache, EC2, IAM, etc. </li><li>Exposure to app servers, such as Nginx or Apache (Open Resty & Lua is even better)</li><li>Any familiarity with Computer Networks (DNS, routing, firewalls)</li><li>Any familiarity with OSI stack </li><li>Comfortable with Unit Testing and Integration Testing and Best Practices (such as Jest)</li><li>Experience with Databases and Key/Value stores, such as Redis, MySql, etc. </li><li>Any experience with GraphQL</li><li>Strong problem-solving skills</li><li>Strong sense of ownership and the ability to work with a limited set of requirements</li></ul> What Your Day Will Look Like: Start the day working with a Hybrid team, building and maintaining micro-services (APIs) built mostly in NodeJS, with some NginX proxies. With assistance from the team, you will learn to utilize AWS, Kubernetes, Azure, and more to build/deploy your apps to production and enable a platform that most of the company is moving to. We are a 24/7 Platform, and you will rotate shifts of engineering support and on-call periodically, primarily during business hours. You may be in the office, or you may be working from home, depending upon the day. We're operating on a hybrid schedule, like most companies at this point. We're flexible, within reason. Our team is smart, motivated, friendly, sometimes a bit sarcastic. We don't belittle each other if they do not know something or make a mistake; we try to help each other grow. Some of us come to the office regularly, others bi-weekly. But we're always working together to help each other solve problems, learn, and grow. We come from a startup that brought the company into this century, and we work like one. We build microapps, demand full test coverage, and code for the edge-cases. We're backed by a fortune 100 company, so the hours aren't long, and we actually subscribe to work-life balance. Occasionally, we'll have opportunities to travel to Milwaukee for team outings or welcome our out-of-town coworkers into NYC. Your Impact: Your work will be serving the Financial Reps, and employees at the heart of this company. You'll empower developers who are deploying (mostly) React Apps, and building the tools used by customers and the Financial Reps that serve them. This work will be helping regular people build financial stability and plan for the future in a time when a global pandemic is sweeping through people's lives, and inflation and supply chain issues are threatening financial security throughout the country. Our office was part of a startup, brought in-house to rebrand and rebuild a 160+ year old company. While you're helping to transform the platform NM runs on, you'll be sharing an office with the teams that redesigned, rebranded, and even filmed commercials for them. We have some creative people here, all on a mission to make a historically important company speak to and meet the demands of the newest generations of Americans.
