Staff Full Stack Engineer

This is a strategically important role within our small, yet focused engineering team, designed to help refine and execute on our vision. You will work closely with engineering leadership and many other stakeholders to look forward and create strategy for where we’re going, as well as jump into the code to help us get there.

While we all know there is no average day in engineering, let’s try and paint a picture for you:

First, you’re in a meeting to go over final design considerations for a project you’ve been working on to improve time management for consultants (billing their time to clients). During the meeting, you get a Slack message that something isn’t quite working right with the new frontend feature in staging on certain browsers, so you finish up and go help scope what might be going on while daydreaming better ways to automate testing in local dev, so that these things can be found faster in the pipeline. You pop open your IDE and knock out a particularly critical part of the authentication logic for a new API microservice meant to support streaming user information from a third-party system. Another feature project is also in the works and the database design still isn’t nailed down… you go poke some of the stakeholders with questions to try to scope in the requirements and figure out what’s going to result in the best outcome. Towards the end of the day you draft a Slack announcement about a big feature release that is going live (finally!) and the emojis go wild on the post. Success!

Core responsibilities to our mission

You are deeply driven to improve others' experiences. You lead by example and thrive seeing your peers grow and mentoring them along the way. You use a first-principles approach to understanding challenges and problems.

You also have attention to detail with everything you do and want to create outcomes that impress those around you, embracing failure as a lesson and providing honest feedback to everyone equally. You have a deep understanding of API design best practices and building a stable API for consumption by multiple end systems. You have strong experience with authentication systems and identity management with regard to software design.
