About the role

A founding team engineering hire, we're looking for a strong full-stack engineer to own development of components of our application.

This is primarily a backend role but contains some front-end work (around 20% of the role).

For us, ownership means not only owning the engineering side, but also a lot of the product thinking too. We have a core philosophy that tech and product go hand in hand.

On a backend side, you should deep knowledge of the following:

  • Python
  • Django
  • PostgreSQL (in-depth knowledge of optimizing database performance and features like PL/pgSQL UDF’s is needed).

On the frontend, moderate JavaScript experience is required with Vue and React experience being a plus.

Since you'll be responsible for a lot of product thinking too, you also need to:

  • Love talking to users and working out how to solve their problems
  • Understand business needs and figure out the technical solutions to solve them
  • Have an eye for design and be comfortable designing your own UI's and own solutions
