What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an event software specialist?

To thrive as an Event Software Specialist, you need expertise in event management processes, strong IT skills, and a relevant degree or experience in software support. Familiarity with popular event management platforms (like Cvent or Eventbrite), CRM systems, and troubleshooting methodologies is often necessary. Exceptional communication, problem-solving abilities, and customer service orientation help specialists effectively support event organizers and attendees. These skills ensure smooth event operations, high user satisfaction, and quick resolution of technical issues.

What is event software?

Event software refers to digital tools or platforms designed to help plan, manage, and execute events such as conferences, meetings, trade shows, or virtual gatherings. These solutions often provide features like online registration, ticketing, scheduling, attendee engagement, analytics, and virtual event hosting. By automating many tasks and centralizing information, event software streamlines the event planning process and enhances the attendee experience. It can be used by event organizers, venues, or businesses to improve efficiency and track event success.

How does an event software specialist typically collaborate with event planners and other teams during the planning process?

Event Software Specialists work closely with event planners, marketing teams, and technical staff to ensure seamless integration and operation of event management platforms. They are often responsible for customizing software to meet specific event needs, providing training for users, and troubleshooting technical issues as they arise. Regular communication with stakeholders is essential to gather requirements and provide updates, making collaboration and adaptability key aspects of the role. This teamwork helps deliver successful events and ensures that the technology supports all event objectives.

Grow Your Skills, Grow Your Potential
Responsibilities

The Enterprise Resiliency suite is seeking Software Engineers who enjoy solving complex engineering problems and building reliable, cloud-native software.  Our teams develop APIs, automation, integrations, self-service platforms, and operational tooling that improve State Farm's resiliency and recovery capabilities. We build software that reduces manual effort, automates enterprise processes, and helps teams recover quickly and confidently during operational events.

This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy designing solutions, learning new technologies, and collaborating with others to build scalable, maintainable software. You do not need experience with every technology we use, but you should be comfortable reasoning through technical problems, explaining your approach, and continuously learning.


Qualifications

Key Responsibilities

    • Design, develop, test, deploy, and support enterprise scale internal software solutions.
    • Build RESTful APIs, backend services, and automation that support enterprise resiliency initiatives.
    • Develop cloud-native applications and integrations using modern engineering practices.
    • Design software that is reliable, maintainable, observable, and secure.
    • Participate in architecture discussions and contribute ideas that improve scalability, resiliency, and operational excellence.
    • Build automated testing into software and contribute to CI/CD pipelines.
    • Monitor and support production applications while continuously improving reliability and performance.
    • Collaborate with product owners, engineers, and business partners to deliver valuable software solutions.
    • Participate in code reviews and contribute to engineering standards and best practices.

    What We're Looking For

    Successful candidates are curious engineers who enjoy learning and solving problems.

    You don't need to know every framework or AWS service we use, but you should be able to discuss how you would approach unfamiliar technical challenges, explain design decisions, and reason through tradeoffs.

    We're interested in candidates who can demonstrate experience with the following:

    • Building resilient backend services or REST APIs
    • Designing software that is reliable, scalable, and maintainable
    • Writing automated tests and participating in CI/CD pipelines
    • Working with event-driven or asynchronous systems
    • Troubleshooting production issues and improving operational reliability
    • Collaborating with teammates through design discussions and code reviews

    Preferred Technical Experience

    Experience with some combination of:

    • Java, Go, TypeScript, JavaScript, or other modern programming languages
    • Developing applications in cloud environments (AWS experience is preferred)
    • REST APIs and service-oriented architecture
    • Event-driven architectures and messaging systems
    • Kubernetes, OpenShift, or containerized applications
    • CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices
    • Monitoring, logging, and observability tools
    • Modern frontend frameworks such as Angular or React

    Experience with disaster recovery, resiliency engineering, business continuity, or Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) is a plus but not required.
