What You'll Do

• Own end-to-end projects improving Retool's core Apps product offering, making it easier for companies to build internal software that powers their businesses
• Collaborate with the team to build and improve the architectural foundations of how apps are built, loaded, and persisted within Retool

• Experience owning technically challenging and demanding cross-functional projects
• Experience working with product managers and/or designers
• An eye for product: you care how features work and how they feel
• Ability to make technical decisions quickly, while looping in key stakeholders
• A customer-first mindset and an interest in talking with customers to make sure what we're building meets their needs
• Habit of introspection and understanding what's helped you be successful in the past
