PartnerSlate: Senior Product Engineer, Americas (partnerslate.com)
612 points by partnerslate 1 year ago | flag | hide | past | favorite | 6 comments





We're looking for experienced product engineers based in the Americas to join our 100% remote team.

At PartnerSlate we’re building a B2B SaaS product in the food manufacturing space. We’re an early-stage startup that has found product-market fit and are now scaling up our product engineering team.

What’s exciting about this opportunity

  • A fully remote company from the start

  • An early-stage startup led by industry veterans - fun and growth without chaos and drama 

  • Interesting product challenges, bringing the food manufacturing industry into the 21st century

  • A focus on sustainable pace, strong engineering practices, and boring technology in service of product delivery

  • An engineering culture centered around empathy, quality, and pragmatism

The role

We’re looking for experienced full-stack engineers working remotely in GMT-8 (Pacific) to GMT-5 (East Coast) time zones. We're hiring for a range of levels, from senior engineer through to staff/architect.

You’ll work in a small, nimble product team that's focused on rapidly building out features in Django/python and React/typescript. To do this we use practices like kanban, user story mapping, daily deploys, and regular retros. We value collaboration, sustainable pace, and a low-ceremony, low-drama environment. 

We believe in pragmatic, straightforward architecture that let us spend more time solving our customer’s problems. Our current tech stack consists of a react/redux/typescript frontend talking to a django backend using a postgres database.

We have just enough process to let us focus on building software. A brief standup every day and a kanban board with a handful of swim lanes. No story estimation or endless sprint planning meetings, just small stories that get deployed to production once they’re complete.

We empower you to do your best work. You’ll get a $4k equipment budget, and a $1k/year professional development budget. As an early-stage startup, PartnerSlate provides a lot of opportunities for growth, and we’re excited to support you in that journey!

The company

PartnerSlate is an ambitious well-funded (pre-series A) startup, with a leadership team that has led multiple companies to successful exits. We’ve got traction with thousands of brands, large and small. And we’re laser-focused on delivering an indispensable service for our customers.

We’ve assembled a diverse all-star team of passionate, thoughtful, humble, and action-oriented individuals, led by CEO Vince Tseng, who previously helped start SquareTrade and built it into a $1B revenue company (raised $250M; $1.4B acquisition in 2017).

You’ll report to our CTO Pete Hodgson, a ThoughtWorks veteran who has helped start and scale engineering teams at multiple unicorns, including Doma, Auth0, and GoodRx.

This is not our first rodeo. We understand that innovation and moving fast doesn’t necessarily equate to chaos. Discipline and drive to achieve doesn’t mean unsustainable burnout. As part of the early team, you’ll help shape the culture of the company, centered around intellectual curiosity, pragmatic action, and collaborative attitudes.

As a fully-remote company, we understand the benefits of remote work, but are also aware of the drawbacks. We have regular in-person get-togethers once or twice a year, both to collaborate on work and to bond as humans. We offer a $4,000 equipment budget to help you create an effective work environment.

We also care about making the world a better place! As an industry, food is one of the areas where we can help create a more sustainable future for the world. Partnerslate and its lead investor are both actively looking at B Corp certification.

As part of this, our vision for our workplace is clear: we will be a place where a diverse mix of talented people want to come, stay and do their best work. Diversity, equity and inclusion are fundamental to how we think about growing our team and working together as one. We are creating a respectful environment where we can learn from and celebrate each others’ differences.




Nice

I don't see why anyone would pay for what this startup does. You can easily build this yourself in 2 hours but serverless by double-dipping NextJS, Tailwind, Jest, Gatsby, Enzyme and Webpack on top of Kubernetes in a Docker VM on AWS.
