Software Engineer

You’ll join a growing organization of experienced engineers to take our software from early success to enterprise scale. This is an opportunity to truly influence and contribute meaningfully to our product and engineering practices and help create a beautiful and functional product.

You’ll be the newest member of our Data Ingest and Account Setup team. This team is the first point of contact our users have with the product, and is responsible for the onboarding funnel that plays an integral role in our network-effects business. The team is also responsible for the data ingest system, and makes ongoing investments in the performance and reliability of the code that powers all of the Crossbeam application.

Responsibilities include

• Develop & Deploy: Consistently ship features and enhancements with guidance from other team members. Work with other team members to create, test, and deploy high quality code. The team works on the full stack of our application, although owning the core data ingest system means there is a natural emphasis on the backend.
• Improvements & Support: Help to prioritize support issues which are reported by users and/or our Customer Success team, help to identify areas of improvement in the code base and contribute to make it better.

• Team Collaboration: Collaborate & learn with other engineers, as well as members of other teams like Product, Growth ,, and Customer Success to launch awesome features and enhancements.

• Learning & Growth:  Learn from and collaborate with your team members as we push the boundaries of our product and system. Help us continue to cultivate an environment where you can ask and be asked questions that will better the team as a whole. 

These are some of your traits

• You have at least two years professional experience on an engineering team. 
• You have deep knowledge of modern frontend frameworks, such as Vue or React, and of REST APIs.
• You have experience working with one or more backend frameworks (we use Clojure here but that's cool if you’re not familiar with it!)
• You have an understanding of interacting with databases, preferably relational (ideally Postgres or MySQL, but Mongo and other NoSQL databases work too).
• You follow best practices for documentation.
• You enjoy collaborating with product and design teams to create the best possible product.
• You believe in creating space for people with different backgrounds and viewpoints to share their opinions in a respectful environment.
• You embrace complex technical challenges and thrive on discovering simple solutions.
• You’re not afraid to speak up when you have a point of view, but can “disagree and commit” once a final decision is reached.
• You have an unrivaled work ethic, and are excited to learn from the team around you.
• You have experience working remotely as part of a larger team.
