About the role
Our engineers have a significant impact on our product and customers; they have full deploy access and push code into production from day one. You will work on projects that span technologies, systems, and processes where you will design, test, and ship great code every day. The work you do will affect Persona, our customers, and their users. Throughout your time here you will be working with our engineering, design, and product team on important features, communicating with our customers, and helping us build Persona! We offer extensive opportunities for mentorship with formal and informal mentorship from some of the best engineers in the industry.
This position is based in San Francisco where the team is in-office Tuesday - Thursday with the option to work from home Monday and Friday. We offer relocation support for those based outside of San Francisco Bay Area.

- Design, build, and ship foundational aspects of the identity platform
- Create innovative solutions that will help fight fraud and delight customers
- Work directly with customers to build product features
- Handle all different types of scale - from helping a new start up automate their manual processes to supporting enterprises with their Super Bowl Sunday scale
What you'll bring to Persona
- Innovative mindset - You go beyond implementing what is tasked and make product suggestions and features that help push our product forward. You are naturally curious and embrace change.
- Independent thinking - You can turn around features within days because you learn from your mistakes quickly, and know how to unblock yourself if you get stuck. You give yourself agency to take on new problems and drive them to impactful solutions.
- People first - You care not just about the code, but the real-world impact your work can have on people. You are excited about building products that real people use, every day.
- Continuous learner - You have a hunger for knowledge. You’re driven to continuously improve your skills, whether mastering new programming languages or diving deep into emerging technologies.
- Collaborative spirit - Collaboration isn’t just a buzzword for you, it’s your secret to success. You leverage the diverse perspectives of your teammates and sometimes go out of your way to learn other functions to get the job done.

Frequently Asked Questions
- We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
- 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.
