Senior Software Engineer
Gearset, Belfast, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom
Gearset is the leading DevOps platform for Salesforce. Our users can build and manage many aspects of their Salesforce development from within Gearset, from complex CI/CD pipelines to disaster recovery.
The Gearset platform is a standalone tool that sits outside of the Salesforce platform, integrating via public APIs only. While our engineering team doesn’t develop within the Salesforce environment, our users do. We work closely with domain experts to build novel solutions to the unique challenges they face, enabling them to make their Salesforce changes quickly and safely.
We live and breathe this approach ourselves: we release new versions of Gearset multiple times a day and continually invest in improving our own observability and infrastructure tools. This means we can identify and react to issues quickly and delight our users by getting improvements to them as fast as possible.
As a product‑driven company founded by engineers, we know the value of great engineering culture, teamwork and tight feedback loops. We’re confident in our product, market potential and have big plans for the future.
What are the opportunities for a Senior Software Engineer at Gearset?
* Our small engineering teams start from core principles but evolve over time. You’ll impact what we build and how we build it.
* A great team works with context and feedback – there’s no substitute for talking directly with the people impacted by our work. Engineers work across the business and talk directly to customers and partners to ensure we’re solving the most pressing problems.
* Our tech stack includes C#, React, TypeScript, Postgres, AWS and Kubernetes. You’ll become familiar with our stack and help us define what great looks like.

* Play a key role in shaping development best practices, driving technical excellence, and influencing the future of our product and roadmap.
