Senior Software Engineer, Frontend

Required

• Are you passionate about system design and development? Do you have experience building, deploying, and maintaining large-scale, distributed applications? Are you ready to take your skills to the next level and join a team of innovative self-starters in a supportive, entrepreneurial environment?
• As a Senior Software Engineer, you will be leveraging your experience working within a service-oriented architecture. You will be responsible for separating data and functionality as necessary, and will demonstrate an understanding and use of automated testing as a productivity multiplier. You are eager to learn and passionate about improvement. You want to understand how systems work, and you think about how to make them work even better. You will work closely with product managers, designers and other engineers to scope, design, and build new features and functionality. You will be working primarily on backend systems. We’re currently using Ruby on Rails as our main language, but prior experience in RoR is not a requirement.

• As a Senior Software Engineer for Time Lifecycle, you'll be responsible for unifying time tracking, time off, leave management, shift scheduling, and project tracking across PEO, ASO, and EOR into a single system, replacing three fragmented legacy platforms. At the core of this work is building a compliance engine that automatically handles overtime, labor law, and pay rules across 50+ jurisdictions, while bringing leave management to life with native leave state, payroll pause, and proration support. The work also opens new verticals for Justworks by shipping the shift scheduling and project tracking capabilities that manufacturing, healthcare, and education customers require as table stakes. Ultimately, this role owns the full pipeline from time entry to time payable — meaning the code you write directly determines whether thousands of workers are paid correctly every pay period.
• Collaborate with a cross functional team to design a next-generation platform to unlock new business capabilities
• Take ownership of designing and implementing APIs, systems integrations and backend services
• Promote engineering excellence through technical leadership, knowledge-sharing and mentorship
• Instate best-practices observability and monitoring as “first principles” of all our services
• Keep extremely sensitive data compartmentalized and secure
• Perform other related duties as assigned
