Nice to Have

Familiarity with task and workflow orchestration concepts, including task graphs, dependencies, pluggable task types, or flexible job specifications.
Exposure to job lifecycle concepts such as registering work, submitting jobs, handling cancellation and timeouts, and returning status or results.
Exposure to workloads that run across multiple environments, including deployment, scaling, or cross-service coordination concerns.
Familiarity with asynchronous processing concepts such as queues, retries, polling, or worker coordination.
Exposure to using logs, metrics, dashboards, or other operational tools to understand workload behavior and help troubleshoot issues.
Success Looks Like
Within 30-60 days, you understand the core orchestration and job execution architecture, can trace a job or task across the services you support, and are shipping focused improvements with clear tests and operational awareness.
Within 90+ days, you are independently delivering feature-level work, contributing realistic estimates and design input, improving reliability and debuggability, and becoming a dependable contributor to the team's orchestration and job execution work.
Over time, you own features and services in production, help onboard and mentor newer engineers, and become a trusted team-level contributor for job execution and orchestration patterns across Alteryx Cloud.
Alteryx is committed to fair, equitable, and transparent compensation. Final compensation will be determined by various factors such as your relevant work experience, education, certifications, skills, and geographic location.
The salary range for this role in the United States is $105,000 - $140,000.
