The posting

Who We Are

At Justworks, you’ll enjoy a welcoming and casual environment, great benefits, wellness program offerings, company retreats, and the ability to interact with and learn from leaders in the startup community. We work hard and care about our most prized asset - our people.

We’re helping businesses get off the ground by enabling them to focus on running their business. We solve HR issues. We’re data-driven and never stop iterating. If you’d like to work in a supportive, entrepreneurial environment, are interested in building something meaningful and having fun while doing it, we’d love to hear from you.

We're united by shared goals and shared motivations at Justworks. These are best summed up in our company values, which are reflected in our product and in our team.

Our Values

If this sounds like you, you’ll fit right in.

Who You Are

You are a thoughtful software engineer who wants to make other developers successful. You enjoy building products that are clear, reliable, and pleasant to use, and you are energized by learning how real customers and partners use an API, not just how it is supposed to work on a diagram.

You have solid engineering fundamentals and are developing confidence across web applications, APIs, and integration patterns. You ask good questions, write what you learn down, and care about shipping complete experiences: code, tests, documentation, observability, and a clear path for someone else to use what you built.

On this team, you will build the connective tissue of the Justworks developer ecosystem while supporting partner integrations. You will learn directly from developer and partner feedback, contribute to hands-on solutioning, and turn repeatable needs into self-service capabilities.

What You Will Work On

  • Build, test, deploy, and operate developer-facing experiences such as developer portal, documentation tooling, SDK improvements, quickstarts, code samples, and integration templates.
  • Contribute to partner integration work by researching APIs, implementing well-scoped components, validating integration flows, and preparing clear technical documentation and test plans.
  • Pair with senior engineers in partner working sessions; progressively own bounded technical discussions and follow-up deliverables.
  • Turn repeated questions and friction into durable improvements to docs, samples, SDKs, tooling, and product feedback.
  • Write maintainable code with appropriate automated tests, logging and metrics, code review, and security practices.
  • Participate in design reviews, incident and debugging work, and team retrospectives; use what you learn to improve the developer journey.
  • Collaborate with Engineering, Product, Partnerships and Sales, and Support with curiosity, reliability, and clear communication.

How You Will Do Your Work

As a Software Engineer, how results are achieved is central to success at Justworks. You will demonstrate:

  • Good judgment: You seek context, understand the impact of changes, raise risks early, and take ownership of the work you commit to.
  • Resourcefulness: You investigate thoughtfully, use available tools and documentation well, and ask for help when it will unblock progress.
  • Teamwork and communication: You communicate clearly, document your work, welcome feedback, and treat internal and external collaborators with respect.
  • Influence and leadership: You contribute ideas, share what you learn, and build trust through dependable execution.
  • Skills and knowledge: You continuously strengthen your software-engineering, API, testing, and developer-experience craft.

You model Justworks' COGIS values—Camaraderie, Openness, Grit, Integrity, and Simplicity—in both the products you build and the relationships you create.

Qualifications

  • 2+ years of professional software engineering experience, or equivalent experience building and shipping production-quality software.
  • Experience with one or more modern programming languages such as TypeScript/JavaScript, Go, Ruby, or Python.
  • Familiarity with HTTP APIs and the fundamentals of web applications, including authentication, structured data, error handling, and testing.
  • Experience building, debugging, or consuming APIs in a professional, academic, open-source, or substantial personal-project setting.
  • A commitment to clear written communication, documentation, and collaborative software development.
  • Curiosity about developer tools, integrations, and the users of the software you build.

Nice To Have

  • Experience with a frontend framework, backend service, API client or SDK, developer documentation, or sample application.
  • Familiarity with OAuth/OIDC, OpenAPI, webhooks, cloud infrastructure, containers, or observability tools.
  • Experience in customer-facing, developer-facing, or cross-functional product work.

Technologies and Experience

Our work includes TypeScript/JavaScript, Go, Ruby, AWS, API specifications, OAuth/OIDC, automated testing, and observability tooling. We do not expect expertise in every technology; we expect strong fundamentals, a learning mindset, and care for the people who use what we build.

The base wage range for this position based in our New York City Office is targeted at $131,000 - $169,000 per year.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
