Sr. Software Engineer, Full-Stack (React/Rails)

What You’ll Do:

• Help lead the design, architecture, and execution of everything from front to back.
• Establish engineering processes, define company engineering standards, identify and implement core technologies, and remove technical hurdles. 
• Work directly with our other Engineers, Product Design, and Data teams to implement core features across our customers’ experiences.
• Build solutions for appropriate scalability. You're ok building something "hacky" if it fits the need, but can also call out real issues and create simple, scalable solutions for them.

What You’ll Use:

• Our homepage (marketing pages) use React, Gatsby, GraphQL, and Contentful headless CMS.
• Our checkout + account experiences use Ember, JSONAPI, and work directly with our Rails API.
• Our back-end is a Rails API that handles everything from account creation, payments, all the way through to fulfillment.
• We work with various high quality SaaS partners like Stripe, Segment, LaunchDarkly, Iterable, Intercom, and more to empower our customers' experiences.

Who You Are:

• You get excited about building polished experiences for people on the web, helping them get to the things they need, while delighting them wherever they may be. You know it's as much about how it feels, as how it looks.
• You've worked on creating back-end micro-services, front-end component systems, API design/versioning, modern JavaScript libraries, webhooks, load balancers, caching solutions, responsive images, responsive grids, CSS pre-processors, and templating engines. All over the board, huh? If you can handle anything that's thrown at you – we want you.
• You take pride in your work, and look for opportunities to iterate and make it better. You prioritize a simple solution over a complex one, leaning on the tools available to make your job easier, while ensuring solid test coverage backs up the decisions you’ve made.
• You believe that great data enables you and others to make better decisions.
• You can dive deep and have complex technical conversations with your engineering team, nerd out over design decisions, and then turn around and explain those same conversations to non-technical teams.
• You believe that just because something is difficult that it is not a reason for not doing it. In fact, that might be validation that it is worth doing, right?

What You Need:

• Education: BS in Computer Science or other engineering/technical field. Equivalent experience also accepted.
• Experience: 5+ years of developing clean, scalable and efficient web apps using Javascript and Ruby/Rails in a fast-paced environment.
• Preferred: Previous Direct-to-Consumer / Online Payments experience.
• The ability to build a full web app - back to front, with a passion for strong test coverage.
• A demonstrated eye for design, as well as the ability to identify and solve real-world user problems.
• An understanding of troubleshooting issues that may arise, and planning for scale.
• Interest in learning additional skills/technologies as we continue to scale our platform and suite of tools.
