About This Role

As a Software Engineer in OutSystems R&D, you’ll contribute to the next generation of our mobile CI/CD platform — the system responsible for building, packaging, and delivering mobile apps used by thousands of developers worldwide.

This is a great opportunity to work across different layers of our technology stack: from cloud infrastructure and API development to automation and orchestration of distributed systems. You’ll collaborate closely with experienced engineers, contributing to services built with C# (.NET Core) and Python, deployed on AWS and orchestrated with Kubernetes.

You’ll be part of a team that values learning, curiosity, and continuous improvement. We don’t expect you to know everything from day one — we expect you to want to learn, grow your technical depth, and take on increasing responsibility over time. If you’re eager to work with modern technologies, understand how large-scale systems operate, and build a solid foundation for your engineering career, this is the role for you.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and maintain backend services that power our mobile CI/CD platform.

  • Participate in the full software development lifecycle — from design and implementation to testing, deployment, and monitoring.

  • Write clean, efficient, and well-tested code in C# (.NET Core) and Python.

  • Collaborate closely with your teammates on design and code reviews, sharing and receiving feedback.

  • Help improve our build and deployment automation to ensure fast, safe, and reliable releases.

  • Monitor and optimize the performance and scalability of the services you work on.

  • Contribute to troubleshooting and incident response, supporting high availability and reliability, having on-call support rotation;

  • Stay curious — keep learning new technologies and proposing improvements to our processes and tools.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor or Master's Degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or similar. Equivalent experience in software development will also be considered for exceptional candidates;

  • 2-4 years of software development experience;

  • Solid coding skills in C# (.Net Core) and Python;

  • Basic understanding of cloud platforms (AWS) and container orchestration (Kubernetes).

  • Mastery of continuous delivery and testing techniques;

  • Ability to work effectively in a cross-functional, agile environment;

  • Availability to participate in an on-call rotation;

  • An active learner of emerging technologies and frameworks, eager to stay at the forefront of technological advancements.

  • Good troubleshooting skills, with a knack for diagnosing and resolving intricate issues quickly and effectively.

  • Motivation to grow your technical skills, take ownership of your work, and contribute to team success.

  • Adaptable and flexible, comfortable working across various parts of the technology stack, and embracing new challenges in a fast-paced environment.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with other languages such as Node.JS, TypeScript, or Ruby.

  • Exposure to mobile build tools or automation frameworks like Fastlane.

  • Interest in distributed systems, scalability, or reliability engineering.

The Longer Story:

OutSystems enables enterprise teams to build AI-powered applications and agents that reduce manual work, streamline internal operations, and accelerate impact. A proven low-code foundation combined with agentic AI and AI app generation capabilities empowers teams to move up to 10x faster with the assurance of security, scalability, and governance built in.
As the future becomes agentic, our customers need us now more than ever. AI has opened the door to extraordinary possibilities—but inside the enterprise, things are moving fast and feeling chaotic. Some early adopters are making progress in production, but for many, AI tools are sprawling without governance, data isn’t ready, and talent isn’t there yet. Enterprises are still drowning in application backlogs and struggling with legacy systems. But with the right platform, AI doesn’t have to add to the chaos. It can become the breakthrough that brings clarity—and drives real, enterprise-wide impact. At OutSystems, we’ve built that platform, providing the tools necessary for enterprises to overcome these hurdles.
We are looking for passionate, talented, and motivated people to join us in helping our customers build, deploy, and scale apps and agents—fast, helping them accelerate innovation while enabling secure, governed human-AI collaboration.
OutSystems is a truly global company, with more than 850,000 developer community members, 1,700 employees, more than 500 partners, and thousands of active customers in over 75 countries and across 21 industries. Founded in 2001, OutSystems has offices in the United States, United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Portugal, Germany, the UAE, Japan, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Australia, India, and Singapore, and of course has a thriving, worldwide community of remote employees.
Amongst our customers are some of the world's most recognizable brands across diverse industries—brands like Toyota, Heineken, Bosch, KeyBank, and UCLA. These customers are the reason we have a 4.6 star rating on G2. Their success is ours, and their stories demonstrate tangible ROI and transformational impact. We are a 9x Gartner Magic Quadrant Leader for Low-Code Application Platforms and a multi-year leader in the Forrester Wave. We’re recognized not just as leaders but as visionaries with a strong ability to execute, now extending our leadership into the AI and agentic application development arena.

Working at OutSystems

Our goal is to ensure that OutSystems is a place for bright, happy, and motivated people who share a common purpose and take pride in doing excellent work to pursue our vision of providing the AI-powered low-code development platform enterprise leaders trust to build, secure, and evolve their business applications, agents, and core systems. Our culture is focused on our core values of trust, customer success, innovation, and alignment. Our team members operate with transparency, integrity, and accountability, define success through the lens of the outcomes we deliver for our customers, push the boundaries with excellence, and work together toward our shared vision to deliver on what matters most.
