REQUIREMENTS 

You 

You’re an intellectually curious, friendly craftsperson! You revel in the details of your work and take pride making beautiful things. Specifically, you build software. You’re a good team member. You’re comfortable with nuance, tradeoffs, and alternative points of view. You bring people up around you. You’re comfortable with a little bit of chaos that comes with an early stage startup. 

Musts 

• We’re a fullstack javascript shop, while everything’s negotiable, its hard to imagine hiring someone right now who isn’t already a javascript engineer. 
• 3+ years of professional engineering experience. 
• We have nothing against first time engineers--we want to hire lots of them soon--but right now, we’re looking for someone with some experience. 
• Once you’re onboarded, you’re able to work fairly independently. We don’t have a PM yet, or formal product specs. We need to be able to give you a problem and get a solution--without a ton of back and forth. It’s not because we don’t value that style of work, it’s just not well suited to where we are as a company, right now. This is not to say we don’t value collaboration, but in a pinch, you should be able to take a feature across the finish line alone. 
• You have an eye for the user. This doesn’t mean you’re a graphic designer, or a PM. But, you are able to make a useable interface and understand how an engineer’s choices can affect the user 
• You know JS isn’t the last language you will code in 

Would be great 

• Have worked with and written performant queries for databases with 100 million rows or more. 
• Have experience architecting front-end react apps. 
• Have experience working at seed or series A startups. 
• Comfortable in all aspects of the software delivery pipeline: planning, designing, implementing, testing, deploying. 
• You have a positive relationship with testing. 
• Have worked on a production node app or react app 
• You’re comfortable getting up in front of people and leading a talk on a new technology 
• Quantitative background
