Senior Software Engineer (Golang + React)

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will have the opportunity to be a part of a team of developers working on the cloud-based, multi-channel platform, which can be leveraged across the entire organization. With powerful workflow, contact, and document management at its core, processes become automated, delivering efficient end-to-end services from the initial point of contact through to successful fulfillment. At the heart of what we do, rich automation and integration provide access to services via third-party channels such as social media platforms, partner systems, mobile apps, and external portals.
