Full-stack Software Engineer (remote)

Salary Competitive

Want to help tech company leaders make better decisions?

Are you interested in building a financial modeling software for recurring revenue businesses? Our software helps leaders in these companies to forecast their revenues, expenses and bank balance. 

Comprehensive financial planning tools have traditionally been reserved for the enterprise, but startups and growing tech companies alike need visibility to their business. We are looking to help them with that. 

We are looking for a driven Full Stack Engineer to work closely with the Head of Engineering and the founder. As an early employee, your work will matter a lot and you get to see your efforts put in use by tech company CEOs and founders on a monthly basis.

 

The stack includes

  • React web app with Redux/Apollo

  • Node.js 

  • PostgreSQL

  • HTML5/CSS (modules)

  • Docker

  • GraphQL & REST APIs

  • TypeScript

What makes you a good fit

  • Experience with Node.js 

  • Experience with PostgreSQL, MySQL or other RDBMS. (PostgreSQL preferred)

  • Experience designing RESTful APIs 

  • Strong understanding of how to write scalable software

  • A solid grounding in Computer Science fundamentals, data structures, algorithms, and deftness at object-oriented design and systems architecture 

  • Passion for creating great products and solving unique problems 

  • Ability to overlap three hours of your work day with the US Eastern Time Zone (4-7pm in Finland)

These will be considered a bonus

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science/related degree, or a portfolio showcasing your past work

  • Experience using GraphQL and frameworks like Relay/Apollo

  • Devops experience, especially building a scalable web application on AWS or Google Cloud

  • Proficiency using unit and E2E testing frameworks like Mocha, Jest and Cypress

  • Take initiative and thrive in a fast-paced startup environment

     

What you can expect

  • Four weeks of vacation (base, increases over time)

  • Ultimate flexibility setting your work environment + $1,500 home office stipend

  • Paid company meetups every 3-6 months. Past company trips have been to Los Angeles, San Antonio, Baltimore and Finland. One time, we transported two sheep in a rowboat to an island. Some say they are still roaming the island today

  • Opportunity to solve tough challenges in the intersection of tech and finance - this is not a “yet another crud app”

  • A team that values your personal well-being. We believe weekends are meant for recharging and relaxing - not for last minute bug fixes in production

  • Competitive compensation depending on experience

  • We believe that embracing diversity is the right thing to do. We encourage everyone to apply –  regardless of gender identity, race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, age, veteran status, or any other characteristic. Help us reach our goal in making the future of tech and finance diverse, inclusive, and exciting.
