Software Engineer I (Junior)

Department: Product Development
Location: Canada

Hi, I’m Nathan, cofounder at Together Software. Learning at work is broken, especially at large or remote companies where employees don’t sit side by side anymore. Our product matches employees with other colleagues they would have never otherwise met before, for learning, mentorship and networking. Think of it as a peer-to-peer knowledge exchange. Organizations like the United Nations, Airbnb, Disney and 7-11 use us to run mentoring programs to up-skill their employees.

We launched through Y Combinator in Summer 2019, and are now a team of 35 people. We are now part of Absorb LMS as a subsidiary. To learn more about how and why we started Together Software, you can read here: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1VwvN-AhlWO3tOuaDZ2kFvp4X1bdvgo5Kbue2wegfZfA/edit#slide=id.ge9bf2d4586_0_4

Our mission is to help everyone find peers, mentors and experts to learn from. Let’s build the next ubiquitous software product together.

Together Software, now part of Absorb Software, is a leading mentorship platform that helps organizations build meaningful employee development programs. With this exciting growth, we’re hiring a Software Engineer I to join our team!

What you'll be doing

  • Acquisition: Helping us acquire more users and customers by creating growth features like free trials, invites, and more
  • Activation: Improving onboarding and how easy it is to find the perfect mentor or match (indexing profiles better) or start as an enterprise customer
  • Retention: Maximizing the amount a user learns from other colleagues, such as through meeting agendas, building a user’s expertise in a topic, etc.
  • As well as good-old-fashioned engineering work like:
  • New integrations and infrastructure management (Identity, Human Resource Info Systems and Task queues)
  • End-to-end reliability engineering
  • Reporting and reporting data pipelines

How we work

  • Slow and fast: When we need to test new value quickly, the team at Together finds the fastest way of delivering functionality to customers to iterate and learn. When we want something to be built to last, we take time to make sure the feature is good enough to be released
  • Customer-obsessed: Let the customer be the source of the problems we prioritize
  • Autonomous: We skew toward authoritative decision-making and moving quickly over consensus and long cycles of speculation
  • Performance-driven: We expect the best from each other, take our time with hiring, and give feedback to improve each other
  • Balanced: It's a marathon not a sprint. While we’re an effective and efficient team that avoids burnout. Having balanced work is important to us
  • Experimental: Bias towards trying new things and seeing what works, instead of speculating or being paralyzed in decision-making. Most things are reversible

What you'll bring to the table

  • Attitude: An obsession with the customers’ experience.
  • Speed: Ability to move quickly
  • Opinions: Have a lot of opinions on how to make things better, and are comfortable with debate
  • Selflessness: Put the team’s interest in front of your own
  • Standards: Want to work with the best
  • Ownership: Are ready for a high ownership, high expectation role. We are looking for candidates who are truly compatible with startup culture
  • Bonus: You have experience with testing practices
  • Bonus: You have seen architectures that support reliability

Qualifications:

  • 0-1.5 years experience in paid, non-freelance Web development
  • Experience with single page web applications (React)
  • Ability to build web back-ends with Node.js or Python
  • Experience with CI/CD (Kubernetes config, Docker build)
  • You have previously worked with NoSQL databases
  • Your colleagues would highly recommend you

Are you ready to become an Absorber?

What we offer:

  • Fully remote-first work with flexible work arrangements
  • Comprehensive Health and Wellness Benefits including retirement savings programs, generous time off, comprehensive medical and dental benefits based on your country of location
