Experience: 5+ years
As an early engineer, you will play a critical role in setting the company's technical direction. You will be hands-on, building the early product and talking directly with initial customers and users. From the start, it is critical that you can build a 0-1 product with great UI/UX.
As the company grows, you will own and lead the architectural roadmap that will lay the foundation for the platform. Your technical leadership will be a key factor in supporting and growing the engineering and product teams.
You need to be both strategic and tactical. The company is seeking a builder to develop product specs and front-end components into an enterprise-ready application. They are also looking for a self-starter, not afraid to get their hands dirty and rapidly iterate on prototypes early in the development lifecycle.
An ability to handle ambiguity is a must.
The company needs a top-tier team to help build a platform that will fundamentally change and improve supply chain networks.
Looking back on your first 12 months at the company, you will have:
- Built and led the delivery of the early versions of the platform, spearheading pilot programs at initial customers - Worked with the team to think through strategy and the evolution of the business - Influenced new product and feature design while defining a long-term technical strategy aligned with industry best practices - Designed and implemented platform integrations with outside APIs, partners, and cloud infrastructure - Built something scrappily to show customer value, so that the team has now earned the right to re-architect for scale
- 5+ years building across front-end and back-end - Experience with modern, open-source tech (Typescript, React, Next.js, GraphQL, Trigger.dev) - Startup experience and/or agency experience (bonus if it is in supply chain). Early-stage product experience building from zero to one - Ability to build out various API integrations with speed - Experience working with non-technical stakeholders and users.
Comfortable leading and managing an engineering team - Ideal experience includes previous work with various ERP system APIs
Compensation includes equity.
