We're Hiring!

Here are a list of current roles that we're looking to fill!

Roles

  1. FE Software Engineer
  2. Chief of Staff

Quick Overview

Hi, we're YEN!

  • We're an early-stage, distributed-first, venture-backed company based out of Silicon Valley.
  • We're building a b2b saas platform to help businesses launch & grow their community, fast.

The following are some roles that we're currently looking to fill...

Frontend Software Engineer

This role will be responsible for helping to build out our early-stage mvp with a small team of 3. The ideal candidate enjoys writing and contributing high-performant, scalable code in a distributed, async, high-communication culture, focusing most of their time on our frontend. They will more than likely have extensive knowledge of a variety of languages and technologies like: React, Typescript, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, SCSS, Firebase, MongoDB, NodeJS, NGINX, and a variety of well-known APIs / SDKs like Stripe.

Compensation:

  • We're open to contract, part-time, contract-to-hire, and full-time!
  • We care more about who than the exact # of hours available.

Core Responsibilties:

  • Develop & expand on our existing codebase, staying true to our operating virtues while adding their own creativity to the mix.
  • Work independently & collaboratively in a fully-distributed, async environment.
  • Integrate (existing) software components into a fully functional software system.
  • Troubleshoot, debug, and upgrade existing systems.
  • Build flowcharts, layouts, and supporting documentation (specifications) to determine feasibility.
  • Comfortable with GitHub, ticketing, issues, and Kanban workflows.
  • Engage with our community / users to gather and evaluate feedback.

Qualifications / Skills:

  • Bachelors degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field is nice but not required.
  • Minimum of 3-5 years of professional software development experience.
  • Knows how to communicate fluently in a fully distributed, async culture.
  • Knows how to engage directly (and enjoys it!) with users / community members to gather and qualify feedback into features.
  • Experience with Java, Python, C++ and/or other OO programming languages would be great.
  • Experience with AWS, Google Cloud, and other cloud providers, container-ized deployments, Kubernetes, Docker, would be cool.
  • Knowledge of relational databases, SQL, and ORM technologies (JPA2, Hibernate) would be a plus (currently using MongoDB).
  • Experience developing microservices & restful APIs would be a plus (currently monolithic-ish / REST-ish for our mvp).
