About Rundoo ℹ️

Our mission is to empower independent supply stores with best-in-class technology. Think of your local hardware store or mom-and-pop nursery—these are our clients. From paint to lumber to flooring, over 200,000 such stores across the country sell over $1T of building materials annually using outdated, on-premises systems. We’re aiming to help them modernize so that they can continue to thrive.

Backed by leading investors including Bessemer and CRV, we've raised $18M across three rounds and are growing quickly. Our team is made up of builders, sellers, and industry veterans with a shared goal: to bring modern technology to an overlooked industry.

About the role 💼

You’ll be based out of our Redwood City office and work in person with the rest of our engineering team. As a Software Engineer, you’ll ship features end-to-end across our stack: a Go backend, a TypeScript/React web app, and React Native mobile apps. Your work goes directly to the supply-store owners and staff who run their businesses on Rundoo every day.

You’ll report to one of our engineering leads and work in a small pod of about 4–5 engineers. You’ll own clearly-scoped projects from start to rollout, get deep in the part of the product your pod owns, and build your system and product intuition with mentorship from senior engineers through pairing and code review. It’s a good fit for someone 1–3 years into their career.

What you’ll do as a Software Engineer at Rundoo 🗒️
  • Ship features end-to-end, from the proto and backend logic to the web and mobile UI

  • Own small, clearly-scoped projects (typically 1–3 weeks) with limited direction, from scoping through rollout

  • Go deep in your pod’s part of the product so you can fix arbitrary bugs and add new features with confidence

  • Align with PM and tech lead on what you’re building and why, and write tickets clear enough for another engineer to pick up

  • Talk to clients directly, calling stores to research how they work and to get their feedback on what you’ve shipped

  • Write design docs for your features and reason about how your work interacts with adjacent systems

  • Review teammates’ code and act on the feedback you get, keeping our codebase readable and maintainable

  • Spot broken team processes and fix them, automating manual work where it speeds up delivery

Requirements ☑️
  • 1–3 years of professional software engineering experience

  • Solid command of computer-science fundamentals and fluency in at least one production language

  • Comfort shipping features end-to-end and debugging across the stack

  • Based in (or willing to relocate to) the Bay Area and able to work in person 4 days a week in our Redwood City office

Bonus points 🌟
  • Experience with Go, TypeScript/React, or React Native

  • Experience at an early-stage startup, or another fast-moving environment

  • Familiarity with ERP, POS, payments, or other system-of-record software

Compensation 💵
  • Base Salary: $186K

  • Equity package of $101K / 0.0440% / 7,602 options

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
