You’ll get to meet people from each part of the business and gain practical, real-world experience as part of the team.

We have a friendly, inclusive culture that's built around helping each other improve and learn. We are looking for someone who aligns well with these values, which you can read more about here: https://bitly.com/pages/about

Interview Process

  • Once your resume has been submitted, we'll review it and qualified candidates will be invited to submit a code sample. This can be something you’ve worked on for school, a bootcamp, or a personal project– any code you’ve written that you are proud of! 
  • Our engineers will review your code sample and qualified candidates will be invited to a screening interview with either the hiring manager or talent acquisition team
  • The final step in the process will be an opportunity to meet with the broader engineering team where you’ll talk through your code sample and tell us more about your experience
  • And that’s it!
