Software Engineer

The Company:
Marigold is a fast-growing marketing technology company helping growing businesses build stronger customer relationships through its three core platforms: Emma, Campaign Monitor, and Vuture. We deliver powerful tools for email, SMS, and marketing automation that elevate engagement and drive real results. Marigold is headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee with offices in Sydney and London.

The Role:
At Emma, we’re looking for a driven software engineer to join our team. The Emma Engineering organization is made up of engineers focused on building elegant, reliable tooling that helps customers succeed in their email marketing efforts. Our teams operate with clear ownership boundaries, enabling engineers to specialize, deepen their expertise, and build sustainable software that’s easy to support and evolve. We value thoughtful problem-solving, creative solutions, and building systems that scale—while genuinely enjoying the work we do together.

This is a full-stack engineering role. On the frontend, we primarily use React and supporting libraries, including a proprietary UI toolkit. Our backend systems are Python-based and run on AWS. Experience in any of these areas is valued, and a strong desire to continue learning and growing across the stack is essential. Within your first six months, you’ll also have opportunities to contribute to additional areas of development as you expand your skills and technical impact.

What You’ll Do:

• Write and ship production-quality code that solves real customer problems and supports Emma’s marketing platform.

• Collaborate with your team on technical design, planning, and implementation to deliver scalable, maintainable solutions.

• Participate in code reviews, both giving and receiving feedback to continuously improve code quality and engineering standards.

• Contribute to the ongoing development of tooling and systems that help marketing teams manage and execute their work effectively.

• Work closely with product and engineering partners to deliver a reliable, high-quality customer experience.

• Build, learn, and iterate in a collaborative environment that values craftsmanship, ownership, and having fun while doing great work.

About You:
You love technology and care deeply about the products you build and the customers who use them. You bring a strong foundation in software engineering, along with curiosity, collaboration, and a genuine desire to keep learning. While you may not be an expert in every part of the stack, you’re excited to contribute where you’re strongest, expand your skills, and jump into new challenges with a growth mindset. You enjoy solving real customer problems, collaborating with teammates, and building thoughtful solutions—while having fun along the way.

Ideal Qualifications:

• 2+ years of experience building quality, production-grade software using best practices, proven design patterns, and collaborative development processes

• Experience writing and shipping code, participating in team planning, and contributing to technical discussions and decisions

• Familiarity with modern technologies such as React, Python, or similar frameworks, with a strong desire to continue learning and growing

• A developing area of specialization, paired with comfort contributing across different parts of the codebase as needed

• Experience participating in code reviews and using feedback to continuously improve code quality and team outcomes

• Customer-focused mindset with interest in building tooling that helps marketing teams work more effectively
