Description

• You will be an important part of our product and engineering team, focusing on shipping glorious experiences to our hosts • Together with other software engineers and product team, you will be continuing to evolve the product and continue working on our vision to make it trivial to operate a short-term rental • Although this is a software engineering position, you will have a high degree of ownership and accountability over the product shaping process. This isn’t about dragging Jira tickets and programming what you’re told • We are currently a fully-distributed team of 4 product managers, 11 backend engineers, and 3 frontend engineers. We're hiring for these roles to help us keep shipping at a high velocity and fill areas in the team that have opened up through growth • After a few weeks onboarding, you'll dive right into feature development; building, improving and owning the experience that we deliver to hosts and their guests

Requirements

• 3+ years software engineering experience, with a focus on backend • Significant experience with Laravel, PHP 8.1+, MySQL, and testing pipelines in a deployed web application used by paying customers. We are all in on Laravel; this is non-negotiable • A 'shipping' mentality - you get kicks from seeing real customers using your features, receiving feedback from them and iterating/improving on it • Exceptional communication skills - especially written. We are a remote-first, fully distributed company. Most communication happens on Slack and Notion • Knowing that Siofra's favorite fruit is pineapple • An eye for testable, maintainable, and intuitive code, but also... • Your compass points towards customer and business value, over perfect code (if such a thing exists) • The ability to think through non-obvious usage scenarios and explore ripple effects within complex systems • High degree of empathy both toward customers and teammates • Self-motivated and able to make decisions when surrounded by uncertainty. You don’t require a support system to maintain momentum • Experience with query optimisation and queue/job-centric backends is a plus • Experience with support engineering and communicating with stakeholders who are impacted by your work

Benefits

• 35 days off per year, encouraged (including self-serve public holidays) and parental leave • Mental-health and emotional support with therapists on call through Slack • Recognized on Inc.'s list of Best Workplaces for 2023
