Position

We are looking for a Software Engineer with 3+ years of experience to join our growing team. As a full-stack developer, you are comfortable owning your features end-to-end. We value feedback highly and use qualitative (talking to users) and quantitative (metrics, A/B testing) data to determine what's most important, and then work quickly to ship those features on bi-weekly sprints. We’re a small team with a get-things-done attitude, so you’ll have lots of autonomy to create impact while tackling complex technical challenges. There will be an opportunity to grow into technical leadership roles as the company grows.

• Benefit from best-in-class salaries, equity stock options, a comprehensive benefits package with flexible Health Spending Account, and more
• We work flexible schedules to allow for optimal work-life balance. As you start to grow your family, we have a generous Parental Leave Policy to support you as well!
• In addition to collaborating with top global talent on lots of interesting projects, you'll also have fun working in a diverse, inclusive environment with constant support from both peers and leaders
