Staff Software Engineer
Who We Are:
We're RealWork, a dedicated crew of innovators based in Austin, Texas. We're in the business of helping home service providers build online trust with homeowners, and we're pretty good at it, if we do say so ourselves.
We've built a hyper-local content platform that allows service providers to easily share their work through videos, reviews, and photos tied to their job site location. It's all about quality and trust with us, and we're proud to say our platform has proven its worth by helping our clients establish a strong online presence and build trust with their customers.
RealWork is based 100% in the US and headquartered in Austin, TX.
We're looking for a Staff Software Engineer to join our small but growing engineering team. A great candidate will be able to demonstrate competency in Full-stack development, and will be at ease maintaining an Express + Mongo backend, working with ORMs and designing RESTful APIs. This role represents an opportunity to heavily influence product, workflow, and fundamental engineering principles on a current, relevant and flexible product as it grows to national scale. The ideal candidate will have a high level of expertise in product development, data engineering, and systems architecture, with a particular focus on B2B solutions.
The Product:
Our platform helps home service businesses attract new customers by capturing and broadcasting photos and videos showcasing their work. Our product is primarily TypeScript and React with a MERN-stack backend. We put an emphasis on keeping the codebase evergreen and focused on best practices while balancing stability and ease of use for the development team.
The Interview Process:
Tired of the 10-round interview gauntlet? So are we. We have a simple, straightforward interview process that takes less than 4 hours of your time - total. Sick of Take-Home Assessments and Algorithm Exercises before you ever get the chance to talk with someone? Us too. You can opt to show off something awesome you've built instead. Let's get to the point, and see what we can build together.
