As a member of our small but growing engineering team, you'll need to be a self-motivated, high-impact and driven individual that goes out of your way to learn about and produce the best solutions for our customers.

Design, develop, and maintain scalable systems and well-tested features
Design and implement services that are reliable, high-quality, performant, and sustainable
Work with our business team to build great user stories and designs from (sometimes) ambiguous requirements or problems

This role is great for you if...

You have significant experience with C#/.NET and SQL Server databases
You have significant experience building and consuming REST APIs and microservices
You have significant experience building B2B cloud solutions on Azure or AWS
You love learning about and solving real customer problems
You care a lot about making an impact on the business since we have such a small team, you'll be shipping important features all the time
You are a self-starter who gets excited about learning and improving anything possible since we are still constantly developing many parts of our engineering stack
You have a positive attitude and communication style because we've learned that excellent written communication and attitude go a long way for a remote team
