Gallup Design Build Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Prototype. Experiment. Build Gallup's next generation of products.

As a senior software engineer at Gallup, you'll push the boundaries of what our technology can do. You'll design and deliver full-stack solutions, use rapid feedback loops to test ideas and help turn successful prototypes into scalable, production-ready systems. Your code, ideas and technical decisions will shape solutions that measure people's work and life experiences, influence leaders' decision-making, and deliver insights to customers more frequently and in a more personal way.

If you're driven by curiosity, collaboration and the chance to create technology that empowers millions around the world, apply today.

What You'll Do

• Design, build and ship experimental product features end-to-end, from database schema and API endpoints to UI components and deployment pipelines
• Write production-quality code across the stack: Node.js/Python backends, data models, RESTful APIs and modern JavaScript front ends with hands-on debugging and performance optimization
• Prototype with emerging AI technologies (e.g., LLMs, embeddings, agents) by implementing working integrations, running experiments and providing technical recommendations based on real performance data
• Architect and implement scalable systems from scratch, making concrete decisions on frameworks, infrastructure, caching strategies and deployment approaches

What Makes You Stand Out

• Technical leadership: You've guided teams through complex, fast-moving projects.
• Tool versatility: You're fluent in multiple languages and frameworks and know how to choose the right tool to deliver results.
• Collaborative mentorship: You share knowledge generously, explain technical concepts clearly and help others level up their expertise.
• Startup drive:You thrive among high achievers who believe experimentation and iteration fuel progress.

What You Need

• Bachelor's degree in computer science, computer engineering or a related field, or equivalent experience, required
• At least five years of experience building production software with a strong back-end focus required
• Handson experience designing and implementing scalable, secure APIs serving web, mobile and thirdparty integrations required
• Solid front-end development skills (e.g., React, TypeScript, modern CSS) to build interactive prototypes and experimental UIs required
• Demonstrated expertise in cloud-native architecture and AWS services (e.g., Lambda, API Gateway, RDS, S3) required
• Familiarity with relational and NoSQL databases, with practical schema design and data modeling skills required
• Proficiency with CI/CD automation and observability tools for tracing, metrics and structured logging preferred
• Security-minded development approach, with experience implementing authentication, authorization and secrets management best practices preferred
• Experience using and integrating AI tools into development workflows and product experiences preferred
• Experience with modern mobile development practices preferred, particularly Android development using Kotlin, coroutines and Jetpack Compose
• A commitment to working on-site at Gallup's San Francisco office at least three days a week required
