Full Job Description
About this team and role:

The role is part of the IT Function within the broader Mozilla Infrastructure team. The IT team supports ERP Services, Workplace services, Service-Desk and On-Prem DC Services across the organization aligned with the mission to build a safe & secure internet. As a Software (Application) Engineer in the newly formed Workplace technology team, you'll help design, build, and maintain the systems and automations that power Mozilla's workplace technologies - from collaboration and AI productivity tools to identity and access workflows. You'll manage day-to-day administration, develop scripts and integrations, and contribute to projects that improve reliability, security, and user experience. This role is hands-on and growth-oriented, offering opportunities to deepen your technical expertise while shaping how Mozillians work and collaborate.

Note: You don't need to meet every listed qualification to be considered - we value diverse experiences and learning potential.

What you'll do:
  • Design, build, and maintain scripts, APIs, and workflow automations that power key workplace systems - collaboration tools (Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom, Atlassian) and identity platforms (Okta).
  • Develop lightweight services or integrations that connect collaboration, GenAI-tools (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini) and internal systems, enabling agentic flows (e.g., virtual assistants, workflow agents) that reduce manual work and improve user experience.
  • Implement monitoring, logging and observability for automation and AI workflows; troubleshoot issues and uncover opportunities for reliability, scalability, and cost-efficiency.
  • Contribute to the evolution of secure onboarding, off-boarding, and mover workflows across access, permissions and SaaS tools - with automation and safe agentic handoffs where appropriate.
  • Collaborate with IT, Security, and People teams to ensure identity, data, and compliance standards (SSO, DLP, classification) are deeply embedded through automation and script-driven guardrails.
  • Participate in pilot projects for new AI and productivity capabilities: integrate LLMs & agents, track usage/adoption metrics, build flows that assist users (e.g., knowledge-agent, document summarizer).
  • Contribute to the code-review process, documentation of shared libraries for workflows/agents, and build a library of integration templates for reuse across the team.
  • Partner with senior engineers to modernize workplace systems through scalable architecture, API-first design, and intelligent agentic workflows.

What you'll bring:
  • 4-6 years of experience in software engineering, systems integration or workplace technology development, with a focus on automation or scripting.
  • Proficiency in one or more programming/scripting languages (Java, Go, Python, JavaScript/Apps Script, Bash, PowerShell) and comfortable with RESTful APIs, webhooks, and integration frameworks.
  • Familiarity with SaaS platforms (Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom, Atlassian) and interest in agentic/AI workflows (LLMs, agents, prompt pipelines).
  • Understanding of IAM/SSO (Okta, SAML/OIDC/SCIM) or a willingness to grow in this area; experience automating provisioning/access is a plus.
  • Experience or curiosity about CI/CD, workflow orchestration, and building self-service delivery models that leverage agents or automation.
  • Strong troubleshooting, documentation and cross-functional communication skills; comfortable collaborating with non-technical partners and translating automation into tangible operational gains.
  • A growth mindset: you embrace learning new AI technologies, care about user experience, and seek to improve systems through intelligent workflows.
  • Interest in building agentic flows (for example: bots that triage tickets, summarize documents, assist user tasks) and integrating them responsibly into workplace systems.
  • Commitment to our values:
    • Welcoming differences
    • Being relationship-minded
    • Practicing responsible participation
    • Having grit

What you'll get:
  • Generous performance-based bonus plans to all eligible employees - we share in our success as one team
  • Rich medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Generous retirement contributions with 100% immediate vesting (regardless of whether you contribute)
  • Quarterly all-company wellness days where everyone takes a pause together
  • Country specific holidays plus a day off for your birthday
  • One-time home office stipend
  • Annual professional development budget
  • Quarterly well-being stipend
  • Considerable paid parental leave
  • Employee referral bonus program
  • Other benefits (life/AD&D, disability, EAP, etc. - varies by country)
