As an early-stage startup, we’re looking for generalists with a combination of intellectual curiosity and bias to action. Building a new product and company requires a unique combination of problem solving with execution. We are constantly learning, always grounding our work in hypothesis-led systems thinking and test, learn, repeat. We use TypeScript and build scalable systems so we can continuously make progress on a solid foundation. We don’t expect you to have a background in everything we use, but we do expect strong JavaScript fundamentals and a background working with React, and ideally TypeScript.

What you’ll do

• Work closely with product to build user-facing features with beautiful and performant UI components
• Build scalable backend services and APIs
• Write unit and integration tests to continually improve code quality
• Refactor and migrate existing systems into modular components
• Help scale our service through architectural and infrastructure improvements
• Improve observability, monitoring, and alerting so that we can better respond to incidents
• Wear many hats

What you’ll bring

• Familiarity with React and Typescript
• Understanding of API design and development
• Experience in container orchestration (ECS, Kubernetes, Fargate), Docker, and/or Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
• Experience with AWS or other cloud platforms
• Curiosity to pick up new tools and technologies
• An understanding of data structures, algorithms, and design patterns (and when to apply them)

Bonus Points

• Experience building and publishing native mobile apps using Swift or Kotlin
• Familiarity with payment marketplaces such as Stripe
• Experience working with serverless architecture and microservices
