ABOUT RETOOL

Nearly every company in the world runs on custom software: Gartner estimates that up to 50% of all code is written for internal use. This is the operational software for refunding orders, underwriting loans, onboarding employees, analyzing transactions, and providing customer support. But most companies don’t have adequate resources to properly invest in these tools, leading to a lot of old and clunky internal software or, even worse, users still stuck in manual and spreadsheet flows. 

At Retool, we’re on a mission to bring good software to everyone. We’re building a new type of development platform that combines the benefits of traditional software development with a drag-and-drop UI editor and AI, making it dramatically faster to build internal tools. We believe that the future of software development lies in abstracting away the tedious and repetitive tasks developers waste time on, while creating reusable components that act as a force multiplier for future developers and projects. The result is not just productivity, but good software by default. And that’s a mission worth striving for. 

Today, our customers span from small startups building their first operational tools to Fortune 500 companies building mission-critical apps for thousands of users across their business. Interested in joining us? Let us know! 

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

As a member of the Developer Experience (DevX) team, you will build the tools, systems, and processes that enable all engineers at Retool to be productive and ship great code. This includes build systems, release pipelines, testing frameworks, editor extensions, interactive CLIs, and more. You will be part of a team of engineers who are passionate about creating smooth and intuitive tools for their peers and are not afraid to contribute to any part of our codebase. 

IN THIS ROLE, YOU WILL:

  • Build high-quality internal tooling to help our make our developers more productive
  • Identify developer pain points and work with product teams to design solutions
  • Build and improve our CI systems
  • Own the pipelines and processes we use to release code to production
  • Orchestrate large-scale changes and upgrades across the codebase

THE SKILLSET YOU'LL BRING:

  • 3+ years of experience as an individual contributor on fast-moving engineering teams 
  • Passion for building and productionizing developer productivity tools, frameworks, and other aspects of platform engineering
  • Experience with the JavaScript / TypeScript / Node.js ecosystem
  • Experience with Bazel (preferred but not required) 
  • You have a track record of building productive, collaborative relationships, both within an engineering org and across the broader company
  • You have a track record of delivering engineering projects and process improvements
  • You're excited by the ambiguity and high-ownership culture of early-stage startups
  • You are pragmatic, solution-oriented, and scrappy

I've been using this job search site for a while now, and it’s honestly one of the best out there! The clean and easy-to-navigate UI makes the whole job-hunting process so much smoother. Plus, the job postings are always up-to-date, so I never feel like I’m wasting time. The cherry on top is the owner—super kind and always quick to respond. Definitely recommend checking it out if you're on the job hunt!

As a student navigating the job market, I've found LinkedIn increasingly frustrating due to numerous fake postings by consultancies. In contrast, this job posting website has been a game-changer for me. It offers genuine opportunities and a straightforward application process, making it much easier to find and apply for real jobs. Highly recommend it to fellow students seeking reliable job listings!

Echo Jobs has been exceptional in my job hunt where it provides one platform to job hunt and I don't have to open 10 websites just to look for a job. It has also helped me focus much on the job skill and the location filtering out the onsite jobs and remote ones. The only feature that I would request is to display fully remote jobs that are not restricted to a country since the one available shows ie, Remote, US yet. But if it could show remote only, that would be helpful not only to me but to other people applying for full remote and not tied to only US candidates

I found EchoJobs in 2022, and I love it. It has a lot of remote jobs. It's exclusive to software and technology jobs (helpful for devs like me). What I like the most are its filters and its API. If you're a tech professional seeking remote work, I highly recommend giving it a try to EchoJobs.

Simply put, it's the most up to date tech jobs aggregator I’ve found. I'm like... "I don't have to check 10+ jobs boards daily just to see if there's a new job listing? sign me up!" The filters are also quite helpful! The UI is very clean and straightforward. Love it!
