Team:

The Customer Engagement Team at Raisin is a dynamic cross-functional unit shaping the design and experience of our core customer touchpoints across markets. As a key contributor in this team, you'll take ownership of foundational domains such as our Customer Portal Dashboard on both web and mobile, ensuring consistent, engaging, and scalable user experiences. You'll also help drive the evolution of our Email Service and champion the delivery of high-impact Transactional Emails that keep our users informed and engaged throughout their journey.

Beyond technical excellence, you'll play a central role in people development — mentoring peers, fostering a collaborative engineering culture, and supporting individual growth. We value team health as much as platform quality, and your leadership will be instrumental in both. If you're passionate about building seamless cross-platform experiences and empowering those around you, the Customer Engagement Team at Raisin offers the ideal space for impactful leadership.
