Staff Software Engineer, Internal Tools
Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, Redwood City, CA (Hybrid)
The role
Our Central Tech team provides technology and security support for CZI and our grantees. We believe that Engineering, IT and Security are most effective when in sync and learning from each other on a daily basis. Across our three pillars of Infrastructure, Security, and Grantee & Partner Support, we enable our teams to achieve their goals faster and more securely. We leverage technology to automate manual processes, constantly innovate to optimize operations, provide first-class support, and build solutions to enable the scale and execution of our business partners' strategies and initiatives.
As a Staff Software Engineer for Internal Tools, you'll own a technical domain spanning the applications, backend services, integrations, and AI-powered workflows that help CZI's business teams work more effectively. You'll translate ambiguous business needs into technical direction, lead architecture and delivery across related systems, and remain deeply involved in implementation. You'll partner with the Senior Staff tech lead to align your domain with the team's broader platform strategy.
