Working Devs

The role

Engineers have the freedom to create a lot of impact for our customers. The role requires high agency and comfort with change. It requires people who believe the interesting problems in Engineering are stack-agnostic. It requires Engineers who believe that solving customer problems quickly is what matters first; building scalable systems matters when customer problems are scaling problems.

What you'll do

• Work in React, Redux, Ruby, Rails, Postgres, and potentially Scala, Python, and Go to solve problems for our customers.

• Dive into all layers of the stack; frontend, backend, API, data processors, etc.

• Jam with Product Managers, Designers, Ops, and other Engineers every day to shape the direction of our products.

• Share your knowledge with others in Engineering; people should get better at their craft because they work with you. Even if you’re early in your career, you have something to teach.

• Contribute to the psychological safety of your team. Software is built by groups of people, and good relationships matter.

• Help us interview and hire other Engineers.

What you’ve accomplished

• While we agree the interesting problems in Engineering are stack-agnostic, we’d love it if you had experience with a couple of the languages in our stack (see the first point above). We’ve found that Engineers with prior stack experience usually ramp faster.

• You’ve worked for a high-growth, venture-backed startup before and are looking for a similar role. Or, you've founded a company and are looking to get back into it.

• You’ve been working as a professional Software Engineer for two or more years.

• You understand SaaS business fundamentals (e.g. annual contract value, customer acquisition cost, and annual-recurring revenue) and can demonstrate how the work you’ve done influences these metrics.

Why you'll love it here
