The ideal candidate is proactive and eager to learn, with good communication skills, a positive attitude, and a strong sense of ownership and accountability. This position is a unique opportunity to learn about software development and make a significant impact on the success of the company. You should thrive in a relatively unstructured, sometimes chaotic environment, understanding that those are the best places to learn and grow.

Design, build, and iterate assigned features, tasks, and projects
Develop a strong understanding of our data model, architecture, tech stack, and development process
Collaborate seamlessly with other developers, product managers, project managers, QA testers, and other stakeholders
Effectively juggle multiple concurrent projects, reporting status and clarifying priorities as needed
Participate in architecture sessions, code reviews, and other product and technical discussions
Help identify new opportunities for enhancing or improving our internal- and external-facing product offerings
What You’ll Need:
A passion for building software that solves real-world problems
Strong desire to learn and grow as a software developer
Intellectually curious with the ability to take feedback and course-correct quickly
Good communication skills and a team-first attitude
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science is preferred, but not required
This is an entry-level position, and ideal candidates are recent graduates with a GPA of 3.7 or higher.
