Senior Software Engineer

LeadSimple makes it easy for property management companies to provide amazing customer service while they grow to manage thousands of doors. Our customers depend on our software daily to help them sell their services, communicate with their customers and do their critical day-to-day work. We’re a bootstrapped, fully-remote company with no outside investors, a great product and happy customers. Our software is unique in our industry, bringing together tools that are often sold separately into a single, integrated product. Our customers love it, and the company is growing fast.

Because our platform integrates many kinds of software into a single platform, we’re always working on interesting projects! Here are just some of the awesome things we’ve built recently:

• A custom text editor built with Slate
• Real-time UI using GraphQL subscriptions over websockets
• A consolidated, collaborative inbox for emails, text messages and phone calls

If that sounds cool, you’re in luck, because we’re looking for talented, full-stack software engineers to join our team.

About our stack

Our backend is written in Ruby on Rails, with a Typescript React UI that communicates with Rails over GraphQL, using Relay. We use Postgres and Redis for data storage, and Heroku for web hosting.

We don’t care if you aren’t an expert on all this tech right now. This is a full stack role, so we do expect you to become competent with all these tools over time, but what we care most about today is whether you can solve problems independently.

If you have front-end and back-end experience, and you can find the solution when you face a problem in a tech stack you’re unfamiliar with, we want to talk to you.

What it’s like to work here

• You’ll work on a little of everything, from databases to user interfaces and everything in between, in a wide variety of product areas.
• You’ll own the delivery of high-impact projects that affect real customers, from start to finish, with no bureaucracy, following the Shape Up method.
• You’ll collaborate within a small, highly productive team, reviewing code and helping other engineers with their roadblocks.
• You’ll have time to focus. We don’t micromanage, and we do our best to keep distractions (and meetings) to a minimum.
• When assigned to on-call duty, you’ll triage, investigate and fix bugs
• You’ll deploy early and often. We ship to production multiple times per day.

Perks for the team

• Monthly Friday Free Day
• Company Holidays

• 3 Weeks Paid Time Off (in addition to the above)
