At Trunk, our mission is to help teams create high-quality software quickly. Merge conflicts, poor code quality or consistency, flaky tests, and dozens of other distractions quickly drain the productivity and morale of those teams. Engineering teams that can stay focused on designing, implementing, and delivering software will build magical, high-quality projects - and they will be happier doing it. We're building the tools that empower teams to land code faster and develop happier. We are building the foundation for a modern software engineering team. Our founders started this journey in 2021 and have designed, delivered, and scaled software at some of the world's largest and fastest-growing tech companies - Uber, Google, YouTube, and Microsoft. We're building a game-changing company, and we hope you are excited to be a part of that audacious goal. Software has eaten the world; almost every company produces software in some form or fashion, so our addressable market is virtually every company on earth. We're going after every engineering team on the planet - we're starting with smaller teams, but there are literally hundreds of thousands of companies out there for us to empower and maybe only a handful (Google, Facebook, Amazon), that are outside our scope. We are building the DevEx platform to empower the world. In 2022, we raised a $25M Series A led by Initialized Capital (Garry Tan) and a16z (Peter Levine), with investments from Haystack Ventures, Garage VC, Tom Preston Warner (Founder/CEO of GitHub), Geoff Schmidt (Founder/CEO Apollo GraphQL), Nicolas Dessaigne (Founder/CEO Algolia), and Oleg Rognysky (Founder/CEO Peopl.ai). You’ll be joining a highly dynamic, collaborative team who closely focuses on all aspects of our tech stack. Engineers at Trunk can expect to work on high impact and very user- focused projects! Some recent highlights for the team you'd be joining are: migrating our authentication framework in our Next.js web app with zero downtime, creating asynchronous and immediate data processing pipelines, developing multiple views and dashboards, and sending weekly product usage emails. What you'll do 🧑‍💻

Collaborate closely with founders and designers to conceptualize and build user-facing features

Create impactful, accessible, and performant UI/UX experiences

Build new APIs and enhance data pipelines with gRPC and Node to support front-end needs

Ensure the reliability of user-facing features by adding analytics, monitoring, and alerts to the service, enabling swift responses to operational incidents

We're looking for 🔎

3+ years of professional software engineering experience with a track record of implementing full-stack features from conception to production deployment

Proven adaptability across multiple programming paradigms and languages and enthusiasm to learn new technologies and tools as project requirements evolve

Strong DevEx focused mindset to leave things better than you found them and tackle problems that can unlock developer productivity

Experience with cloud-based systems and asynchronous processing pipelines (AWS knowledge is a plus)

Strong product sensibility and ability to collaborate with UX designers to implement intuitive, accessible user interfaces

Experience breaking down complex systems to isolate issues that span multiple layers of the tech stack and leave others stumped

Demonstrated skill in conducting thorough code reviews across different technologies and paradigms

Strong collaboration skills to weigh tradeoffs and ability to communicate to drive solid solutions with stakeholders

Experience building production ready web servers and composable UI components within a web framework

Humility and willingness to make mistakes, learn from them and educate others, and grow as part of a team

Have a testing-first mindset, writing tests and deploying to sandbox environments at every stage of development to catch bugs early

Production experience designing and implementing APIs, data models, and data pipelines and working with relational databases
