Description

Check is leading a revolution in the payroll industry. Payroll is the backbone of the US economy, and yet it has not undergone significant innovation in decades. We invented the embedded payroll space to change that (see: Check: Solving the $150 Billion Payroll Problem, Bank On It; Episode 438), both for the business owners who spend countless hours per week running payroll and for the millions of Americans who depend on their next paycheck. At Check, our mission is to empower the most innovative software platforms to create new payroll businesses, and enable those businesses to transform the way companies pay their employees.

Check’s culture is intensely caring: to each other as teammates, to our partners, and to the businesses and workers we serve. Our teams are made up of creative problem solvers and empathetic cross-functional collaborators who can simplify the complexities of payroll. We bring hustle and grit to our day-to-day, while building enduring solutions and relationships. 

Check is hiring a full stack engineer to expand our embedded payroll platform: the intuitive APIs, delightful UIs, and product-backed services that simplify creating, growing, and running a payroll business for our partners. This is the perfect role for an engineer who wants to have an outsized business impact. Our technical stack includes Python, Django, React, TypeScript, Postgres, and AWS.

In this role, you will:

  • Scope, develop, and lead large technical projects with significant business impact
  • Build tools that support and automate complex payroll workflows for our partners and internal teams
  • Influence the culture, values, and processes of a growing engineering team
  • Use data-driven analysis to identify opportunities to achieve our business goals
  • Provide input on product and strategic decision-making

You may be a fit for this role if you:

  • Have a strong product/user orientation
  • Focus on iterative value delivery
  • Have led projects that simplify complex concepts through software
  • Enjoy navigating ambiguity and making decisions independently
  • Have interest in designing both frontend UIs and backend APIs
  • Love working with cross-functional stakeholders

We use:

  • Python (type-annotated) and Django for our API
  • React and TypeScript for our frontends
  • Postgres for our database
  • AWS for our cloud infrastructure
  • GitLab for issue tracking and CI/CD

What we offer: 

At Check, transparency and fairness in compensation are our top priorities. Operating on a flat titling system, our engineering team ensures equity and opportunity for all team members. We believe in empowering engineers, irrespective of their job level, to lead projects they're passionate about and collaborate as equals with their fellow Checketeers. Candidates are assessed based on their unique experience and qualifications, with the expected annual salary/hourly rate varying by job level and location:

  • The expected range in San Francisco, NYC, LA, and Seattle is between $168,900 and $240,500. 
  • The expected range For all other locations is between $143,550 and $204,600.

Full-time employees receive comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, disability, life insurance, stock options, flexible PTO, parental leave, holidays, a 401k plan, and a $100 monthly stipend for home internet and mobile phone expenses.

We accept applications on an ongoing basis with no specified deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
