The posting

Yext (NYSE: YEXT) is the enterprise agentic marketing platform. Built on the world's most comprehensive structured data platform for local businesses, Yext gives brands and their partners the visibility intelligence to win every moment of discovery – across AI and traditional search. Yext's API-first architecture connects structured data to APIs, MCP servers, and generative interfaces, so partners and developers can build purpose-built experiences on the same infrastructure powering Yext's own products. Thousands of brands and digital marketing partners in financial services, healthcare, retail, hospitality, and food rely on Yext to manage, measure, and optimize visibility at scale. For more information, visit yext.com.

At Yext, Product Engineering builds and evolves the technology behind our products and services. We’re looking for software engineers who want to solve meaningful technical problems, contribute to systems at scale, and help shape what we build next.

We work in an agile environment with two-week sprints and regular demos that keep teams aligned and give engineers clear visibility into the impact of their work. From day one, you’ll contribute directly to the codebase and collaborate with experienced engineers from a wide range of leading universities and technology companies.

We are looking for an engineer to help build and evolve Yext’s Knowledge Graph product turning customer information into a connected, usable source of truth. You’ll work on the core infrastructure, APIs, and workflows that help brands model, manage, and connect their knowledge across products and experiences.

The work involves challenging engineering problems, including representing complex real-world entities, processing large volumes of changing data, building reliable distributed systems, and creating interfaces that allow other teams to build confidently on top of the graph. This is an opportunity for engineers who enjoy foundational technology, thoughtful data modeling and system design, and seeing their work enable a wide range of customer experiences.

This role is based in our New York City office, where in-person collaboration plays an important part in how our teams work, learn, and build relationships. We’re looking for people who genuinely value that environment and are comfortable coming into the office at least three days per week. At the same time, we don’t prescribe specific in-office days and want employees to have the flexibility to handle personal needs without disrupting their work or team collaboration

What You’ll Do

  • Participate in the full software development lifecycle, from design and implementation through testing, deployment, and ongoing operation
  • Contribute to the design, implementation, and deployment of highly scalable and reliable systems
  • Develop storage systems, libraries, and frameworks
  • Proactively contribute ideas for new features and identify opportunities to improve our products, systems, and engineering practices
  • Collaborate effectively with colleagues across engineering and with partners throughout the company
  • Write clean, tested, and well-documented code
  • Use AI-assisted development tools thoughtfully to accelerate engineering work, explore solutions, improve code quality, and reduce repetitive tasks
  • Critically evaluate, test, and validate AI-generated output rather than treating it as inherently correct
  • Maintain ownership of all work produced with AI assistance, including its correctness, security, maintainability, and alignment with our engineering standards

What You Have

  • A BA/BS in Computer Science or a related field or equivalent college-level education
  • 1+ years of professional software engineering experience
  • A strong foundation in data structures, algorithms, and software design
  • Fluency with Java, C++, Python, or a similar programming language (we code primarily in Java and Go)
  • Openness to new technologies, new ways of working, and creative solutions
  • Comfort working in a fast-paced environment
  • The ability to evaluate technical solutions critically, including code and recommendations produced by AI tools
  • Experience using—or a demonstrated interest in learning—AI-assisted development tools as part of a responsible engineering workflow
  • Sound judgment regarding data privacy, intellectual property, security, and the appropriate use of confidential information when working with AI tools

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
