Senior Full Stack Engineer

Reforge is evolving to empower product teams beyond education. Alongside expert training, we now offer AI-powered tools designed to help teams ship high-quality software faster. With two innovative tools already launched and more on the way, we combine cutting-edge software with the earned insights of the world’s top practitioners.

Our operating values are opinionated on purpose. We don’t aim to be everything to everyone. Their distinctness is meant to be used as a common set of threads that bond us together on our mission. We use our values to operate, solve problems, make decisions, evaluate/reward team members, and determine who and how we hire. You can see our full set of values and the decisions behind them.

1. ⛴️ Delivering value to customers is all that matters.
2. 🔂 Maximize the pace of improvement.
3. ⚡️ Small teams do bigger things.
4. 🧠Think like an underdog.
5. ⚙️ Be a problem-solving machine.

The internal mission of Reforge is to create an environment where you create the best work of your career. In order to do that we offer:

• Remote-first & Flexible - Everyone does their best work in different environments. We operate as a distributed-first team and offer financial support that enables you to create the schedule and environment that fits to you. We also ask that every employee block off 2-3 hours of daily “deep work,” ensuring that you always have uninterrupted time and can keep a schedule that enables you to do your best work.
• Top-tier Healthcare -
• • Medical - Choice of PPO 500, PPO 250, or HDHP 3300 with a max coverage of 100% of premiums for employees and 70% for dependents.
  • Dental & Vision - 99% of premiums for employees, and up to 70% for dependents.
  • Health Savings Account - For those that choose to enroll in the HDHP, includes semi-monthly company paid contributions.
• Competitive Compensation - Salary + equity package aligned with top-tier tech companies.
• 401(k) - We offer the opportunity for you to contribute to a 401k directly from your paycheck.
• Flexible PTO - Having plentiful “off the grid” time is a key to doing your best work. We offer flexible PTO. Take time when you need it. Everyone must take at least 10 days per year, and we highly encourage more.

…and much more

We have built a data-driven Compensation Philosophy at Reforge, with the intent of enabling all employees to do their best work. When setting compensation for each role, we use bands that include a target salary; on occasion we will extend an offer above or below the target if the skills presented in the interview process show spikes or peaks—but this is rare, and the highest likelihood is that your offer will be at target.

The target salary for this role is $200,000. Equity is also included and will be discussed during the interview process.

We do not negotiate offers because our compensation philosophy is based on equitability and intentional placement within the market.

At Reforge, we believe that diverse teams build better products—and a better future. We believe amazing talent comes from all kinds of life journeys and experiences. If you’re excited about this role but don’t meet every single qualification listed, we still encourage you to apply.
