Reporting to a Manager, Software Engineering, the Intermediate Software Engineer will collaborate with other Product Development members on a scrum team to build an industry-leading product that helps our customers and their small businesses be successful. We’re looking for people ready to solve problems faced by millions of entrepreneurs, using their experience to influence both our product and team, while developing their craft.
In this role, you will write secure and performant code that is easily testable, understandable, maintainable, and accounts for edge cases and errors. Under the mentorship of more senior and staff-level team members, you will solve problems with moderate uncertainty and communicate clearly in pull request reviews and other documentation.
As an Intermediate Software Engineer, you will:

- Work closely with senior engineers to refine requirements and scope technical solutions
- Share knowledge and learn from others through paired programming, team discussions, and technical documentation
- Break down and communicate complex technical issues to both technical and non-technical audiences.
- Deliver value early and often to customers. You'll be working in the full stack to accomplish this (both the frontend and backend).
To be successful, you should have:
- At least 1 year of software engineering experience
- Proficiency in writing clean, maintainable, and testable code
- Experience with the entire software development lifecycle in the Agile/Scrum framework
- An inquisitive mindset, seeking out new information, ideas, and perspectives.
- The ability to take initiative and finding the resources necessary to accomplish a project or solve problems.
It would be really great (but not a deal-breaker) if you had:
- Experience using Ruby on Rails in a production environment
- Experience using TypeScript and React in a production environment
- Familiarity with GraphQL API Layer and its optimization
Hiring Process:
- An interview with a Talent team member (45 mins)
- A Hiring Manager Interview (60 mins),

- A Senior Leadership Interview (30 mins).
