Zego is seeking a Software Engineer to join the team as a part of the Resident Experience tribe.  

TL;DR 👇

We are looking for a senior software engineer to help drive the development and support of the Zego Property Management Platform.  6+ years of experience as a professional software engineer is a must.  Languages are easy to teach, so we don’t care so much about what you’ve done in the past.  What we want is someone who can solve complex problems with clean, maintainable code. 

What’s Great About Zego Engineering?

• We follow the Spotify model for how our engineering teams are arranged.  This means each squad is lean and focused, with 1 Anchor, 2-4 Engineers, 2 QA/QE and a Product Owner.

• Our tech debt is under control, so you won’t get marooned on “legacy codebase island”.

• Heavily product-focused teams mean we deliver initiatives that are of immediate value to our clients.  No more toiling on a feature that never sees the light of day.

• An engineering culture that allows you time during the week to improve and hone your skills.  We invest in your development as a professional.

• Excellent work-life balance, and early dismissal on Fridays.  Helps you get a jump start on your weekend.  

How will you make an impact?

• You’ll provide meaningful leadership of your squad and help to foster a sense of ownership and excellence among squad members.

• Participation in the architecture decisions that guide the next generation of the Zego platform.

• Engage with product and UX teams in discovery and design phases.

• Lead Kanban activities and ensure that the team has the work they need, when they need it.

• Participate in peer code reviews.

• Mentorship of other squad members and junior engineers.

• Oh, and you’ll solve complex problems with clean, maintainable code that stands the test of time.

What you’ll need to bring:

• Curiosity. Don’t be afraid to ask “why”.  Then ask “why” again. Then, again.

• 6+ years of experience in a professional software development environment

  • A bachelor’s degree in a related field is helpful, but not required

• Strong debugging and problem solving skills.  

  • We are sometimes “first responders” when issues arise, and you should have a hunger to figure it out.  

• A strong understanding of functional and object-oriented programming techniques

  • Most of the work will center around Typescript with Node.JS and React.JS.  You should be comfortable with Javascript and Typescript.

  • Previous language experience is NOT important; but you should be comfortable with Node JS, Typescript, React, PHP, Ruby on Rails, C#, or any combination of these and more.

• A willingness to write tests.

  • Yes, we know “test” is a 4-letter-word. 

  • We have QA/QE staff that can help.  

• A strong understanding of web mechanics (client/server model, request and response models, HTTP, security, accessibility, etc etc).

• Experience with Git, GitHub, DevOps, CI/CD Pipelines, and other modern software engineering tools.

• Comfort with observability tools like Kibana, Log Stash, Log Rocket, Data Dog and others.

• Experience with NoSQL databases like MongoDB, Dynamo, or others is very helpful.

• Experience with Docker, containers, linux, command line and more.
