Senior Software Engineer

🛠️ Your role

• Product engineering: you’ll have high ownership of your projects, from the business definition of the need to the conception and development of the new features and the run/maintenance (and beyond).

• Technical aspects: you’ll make sure our product can scale and handle clients with thousands of employees so that our user experience stays top-notch.

• Culture & processes: you’ll contribute to consolidating and developing our product & technical culture. You’ll improve our methods & processes (e.g. documentation, tests, CI, DevOps aspects, tooling).

• Team mentoring: you’ll lead by example as we build transparently, in a public-first mode. We ship qualitative code but we are pragmatic about it.

💻 Our technical stack:

• TypeScript, Node.js, React.

• Next.js hybrid fullstack application / Soon React Router

• Prisma with PostgreSQL.

• AWS, Kubernetes and Terraform.

• Datadog, Metabase, Linear, Github.

✨ The most exciting parts

• Positive impact through product work 🙌 We strongly believe in the social impact of Figures - creating transparency & fairness around compensation and reducing market inequalities like the gender pay gap (check out this Sifted article, powered by Figures).

• Product-centric team AND technical challenges ⚙️ You’ll serve the product and will keep things as simple as possible to deliver a top-notch user experience. The challenge is huge, as compensation is a very complex topic, and making things simple and that scale is complicated!

• Strong ownership, quick personal growth & huge impact 🚀 Our company’s early stage offers lots of responsibilities and opportunities to learn & grow.

• Great teammates & work environment 🙏🏽 We take our “Why so serious?” value seriously, offer a ton of flexibility, and work a 9-day-fortnight.

• Taking risks means high rewards 🤑 Your equity grant will have a big potential financial upside.
