Senior Full Stack Engineer (privco)

About the role

We’re looking for a well-balanced Senior Full Stack Engineer to join a newly formed squad with the goal of developing a new sustainability reporting platform that meets the needs of what we call ‘private companies’. This is very much a ‘startup within a startup’ squad, hence you’d be a key driver in helping the organization expand into a new market segment. There is still a lot of uncertainty around what the real customer and user value is, so you’ll need to have an experimental, iterative mindset where through rapid delivery you’ll work to uncover what our customers need.

The squad is still forming and for now, is composed of a Product Manager and an Engineering Manager, but success dependent could grow quickly in the future. You’ll need to orient yourself quickly with this new business domain, work collaboratively with various stakeholders, and bring to bear your problem-solving skills to deliver an MVP that will help Novata to establish a foothold in this emerging market.

This role is ideal for an engineer who likes to work on products in their infancy and likes to roll up your sleeves and work across the full stack, building components, creating API endpoints, and stitching together cloud services to deliver real end-user value, fast.

You will spend your time

• Applying your skills, knowledge, and experience to help develop a new sustainability platform suitable for a new customer segment and market.
• Collaborating with internal stakeholders, understanding their pains and inefficiencies, and turning those problems into high-value deliverables.
• Ensuring our platform and tooling are robust, secure, scalable, and have a solid foundation that other engineers are excited about building upon.
• Contributing to our guilds, keeping abreast of what other engineers in the collective are up to, and creatively reusing and adapting components to get value shipped as quickly as possible.
• Coaching and mentoring other members of the collective, helping them to grow by improving their skills and abilities.
• Fulfill additional duties as requested.

We use and teach

• TypeScript, React, and Node.js for our platform
• Figma, Storybook, and BrowserStack for our Design System
• Postgres, Metabase, and Snowflake for data storage
• GitHub for source control and Jira for change management
• Docker to package our services into containers
• Harness, GitHub, and Argo CD for CI/CD
• DataDog for monitoring and observability
• AWS for infrastructure, specifically EKS, RDS and S3
• Terragrunt and Terraform for infrastructure orchestration
