Required
We’re looking for someone with strong Full-Stack Engineering skills who shares our most important values:
You’re fanatical about polish. Every detail matters. You love to make sure your code is linted, formatted, fully typed, and has 100% test coverage.
You care about correctness. You take pride in the fact that downstream consumers trust libraries and services you build.
You obsess over performance. You daydream about Lighthouse scores and query speed.
You dive deep. It’s important for you to really know how things work. You’re always building prototypes and setting up experiments to reinforce your understanding.
You live on the bleeding edge. You’ve got a long list of upcoming platform features you’re excited about and can’t wait for the next nightly to drop.
You’re a great teacher. You know how to break down a concept for a specific audience and make it click with them in a way that gets them excited.
Why work with us
We ship — We don’t work on 18-month projects that are irrelevant before they’re even finished.
Our work has impact — We build products that are deployed to U.S. submarines and integrate with the sonobuoys we manufacture.
We’re growing responsibly — We have the resources to hire a lot more people, but we don’t want to build a massive team of people who don’t share our values.
We’re profitable — We aren’t burning through cash trying to make the business work. But we also have investors who believe in us and are committed to our success.
