Job description

Join Our Team as a Software Engineer! Do you enjoy collaboration, have great communication skills and have a passion for writing clean, well-tested code? We’re looking for a Software Engineer who’s ready to ship real features, contribute meaningfully to a team, and grow into an experienced engineer—whether you’re just getting started or a few years in and looking for the right environment to level up. We’d love to hear from you! • Compensation: $70,000-$100,000 commensurate with experience. • What You’ll Do: • Build and maintain modern, responsive web features using Elm and the tools in our stack. • Collaborate with senior engineers and product owners to understand requirements and deliver solutions. • Write clean, well-tested code and participate actively in code reviews—both giving and receiving feedback. • Work with UX designers to bring designs to life with attention to detail and usability. • Deploy code confidently with support from teammates and our DevOps team. • Debug issues, investigate bugs, and contribute to improving system reliability. • Take increasing ownership of features and small projects as you grow. • Work across the stack—picking up backend tasks in Node.js, Express, and Postgres as you build confidence. • Contribute to documentation and help keep our knowledge base current. • Who We’re Looking For: • Have 1–3 years of professional web development experience (internships and personal projects count!). • Have solid knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. • Are curious about functional programming and eager to learn Elm. (We’ll teach you.) • Have some exposure to backend concepts—APIs, databases, or server-side frameworks. • Write code that’s readable and care about doing things the right way. • Are comfortable asking for help and giving and receiving feedback. • Communicate clearly and enjoy working as part of a team. • Are excited to grow your skills and take on more responsibility over time. • Are familiar with version control (Git) and comfortable with a collaborative development workflow. • Other Qualifications (not mandatory): • Coursework or projects in functional programming (Haskell, Elixir, OCaml, Elm, etc.). • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines or deployment workflows. • Experience with responsive design, accessibility standards, or CSS frameworks. • Exposure to tools like Algolia, headless CMSs, or A/B testing platforms. • A portfolio or GitHub with projects you’re proud of. • Why You’ll Love Working Here: • Innovative Environment: Be part of a forward-thinking team that values creativity and technical excellence. • Growth Opportunities: Develop your skills and career with mentorship from senior leaders and exposure to new technologies. • Collaborative Culture: Work in a supportive and collaborative environment where your contributions make a real difference. • Work Environment: This position is located at our home office in Columbia, MO. • Work Hours: We operate primarily on a standard business-hours schedule with some flexibility, and we maintain a culture where work-life balance is taken seriously.
