The posting

About Us:

WorkHound is a pioneering platform transforming how companies engage with their frontline workforce. By providing a real-time, anonymous feedback app, WorkHound empowers employees to share honest insights about their work experience.

Starting in the trucking industry, where turnover rates are notoriously high, we've made a huge impact and are now expanding into other industries. We're proving to be essential in keeping employees happy and fostering a culture of open communication and ongoing improvement. Our mission? To build better workplaces by boosting employee satisfaction and engagement with insights that lead to real change.

About the Role:

As a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer on our small and dynamic engineering team, you will play a dual role, supporting both the Product and Engineering teams. You'll not only be hands-on with coding but also responsible for setting up and managing vendors and contract resources to ensure we ship frequently, on time, and with continuous improvements.

You'll collaborate with Product to design and build data structures and system architecture, integrate various systems, and develop both front-end and back-end software applications. Additionally, you'll be involved in QA and performance testing to ensure our products meet the highest standards.

In your first 3 months, you will…

  • Successfully onboard by understanding WorkHound’s architecture, tools, and development workflows.
  • Write and deploy clean, efficient code, delivering a minimum of two small but impactful features end-to-end (front-end and back-end).
  • Design and implement a scalable API integration for a high-priority feature, ensuring proper documentation and testing.
  • Partner closely with Product Management to identify and resolve at least one bottleneck in the development process, implementing an immediate improvement.
  • Demonstrate a thorough understanding of the existing system architecture, providing at least three improvement suggestions with a focus on scalability and efficiency.

In your first 6 months, you will…

  • Lead the design and implementation of a complex, user-facing feature, integrating both front-end and back-end components and delivering it on time.
  • Complete a comprehensive refactor of at least one major component of the codebase, improving performance or maintainability by at least 20% as measured by benchmarks or team feedback.
  • Collaborate with the Lead Engineer to draft a high-level technical architecture plan for a new product initiative, receiving approval from stakeholders.
  • Create or update at least three pieces of technical documentation, including guidelines for external contractors and internal team reference.
  • Attend your first offsite meeting to align with the team’s long-term vision, contributing a presentation on technical challenges and proposed solutions.
  • Develop a plan to onboard external engineering resources, identifying specific gaps in team capacity and creating an actionable hiring or contracting roadmap.

In your first year, you will…

  • Lead the delivery of at least three major product features from design to deployment, ensuring they meet product and technical requirements with minimal rework needed.
  • Drive innovation by introducing and successfully implementing at least two new technologies or methodologies that enhance development speed, product performance, or team efficiency.
  • Build and manage a high-performing external team of contractors, resulting in a 30% increase in team capacity without sacrificing quality.
  • Conduct a comprehensive review of the existing system architecture, leading the implementation of two large-scale improvements to support scalability for the next phase of growth.
  • Collaborate with Product and Leadership to shape the technical roadmap for the next 12-18 months, presenting a detailed plan for stakeholder buy-in.
  • Mentor at least one junior team member or contractor, helping them grow in their role and ensuring they are contributing effectively to the team.

Our ideal candidate…

  • Prior experience at a SaaS startup, contributing to the development and delivery of impactful products.
  • Proven ability to work closely with product teams to ensure on-time and high-quality delivery, with a proactive approach to sharing valuable product insights and opinions.
  • Strong communicator capable of managing outside vendors and contractors effectively.
  • Proficient with front-end languages (React/Vue, HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, JQuery) and writing back-end code in Node.js.
  • Database knowledge, specifically in MongoDB.
  • Nice-to-have experience: Heroku, Twilio, BullMQ, DNS, Infrastructure/DevOps, token-based authentication.

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.
