Remote Backend + Developer + Heroku + Lead + React Jobs

Steadily is a Series A insurtech startup for landlords.  We've grown from 5 to 30 people over the last year to match demand, and the technical/product challenges have gotten really interesting. We're hiring a senior engineer with experience building web apps and service oriented architecture to help us build the core of our stack.  \n\nAt Steadily, our purpose is to give landlords fast, affordable insurance and amazing customer service so they’re confident they’ll have the coverage they need on a rainy day. Because of our technology and service, our customers love being insured by us, even when they have a claim. \n\n**Why join us**\n\n* You'll be in good company. Not to toot our own horn too much, but the founders are solid engineers. Our VP of Engineering helped grow a company from 15 people to more than 2,000 software engineers. The President has gone through YC twice and has two previous exits.\n* We pay top of market with competitive base salaries and equity\n* You’ll be hands-on with everything, from coding in python to influencing product roadmaps\n* We're growing fast and are well-funded (Series A, $30M)\n\n**What you'll build**\n\n* Rating engines for calculating how much an insurance policy should cost\n* Combine property intelligence for external sources to estimate how likely a property is to flood, catch on fire, or get vandalized\n* A mobile experience for people to buy insurance that is so simple/intuitive that your least-tech savvy relative with a flip-phone could use it without help e.g. pass the Mom Test\n* Claim app that uses phone camera and sensors to document the damage smartly\n\n**Ideal background**\n\n* Experienced: This isn't your first rodeo. There's no specific minimum number of years requirement, but we expect you to be able to dive into a complex codebase without too much spin-up. Past experience as a team lead is definitely a plus.\n* Builder: You like the product-side of engineering and have thoughtful opinions on what the user experience should be. You're not the type of engineer who wants a fully-fleshed out spec thrown over the wall for you to code.\n* Pragmatic: Let's say you have a tradeoff to make: Option A is to ship something fast using an off-the-shelf API on AWS; you won't learn that much and it only solves 80% of the problem, but it'll only take a few days. Option B is to invest about two weeks building a new library and internally-hosted service that perfectly solves the problem; as a bonus you can share it on Github and give a presentation about it at PyCon. If you choose Option A 10/10 then you'll be at home here.\n* Specific languages: We don't really care if you've worked in our stack before as long as you're happy to learn it. If you're sharp enough to be on this team, you're sharp enough to learn any language or framework quickly.\n\n**Our stack**\n\n* Python 3\n* Django\n* Postgres\n* Heroku (with full CI pipeline)\n* Redis / Celery\n* Kafka\n\n**Compensation**\n\n* At least $150,000/year\n* We believe in paying top-of-market to attract the best person for each role.\n* However, the compensation package is usually the second reason people choose to join a startup. The primary reason is they want to experience the growth that comes from pouring your heart and soul into building something that people love. That’s what we do.\n\n**Things to consider**\n\nThis won't be easy. We work extremely hard to sustain our execution velocity and have sky-high expectations of each other. This fact is itself a huge reward: getting to work with other individuals as stellar as you.\n\n**Benefits**\n\n* Paid Time Off\n* Health Insurance\n* 401k / HSA / FSA\n\n**We’re excited to meet you!** \n\nPlease mention the words **CLARIFY MUTUAL SKATE** when applying to show you read the job post completely (#RMjE2LjczLjIxNi4yNDM=). This is a feature to avoid spam applicants. Companies can search these words to find applicants that read this and see they're human.\n\n \n\n#Salary and compensation\n $150,000 — $250,000/year\n \n\n#Location\nWorldwide

## Senior Full-stack Developer at Krit\nKrit is a growing digital agency that partners with Cyber Security startups to design and build innovative new products.\n\nWe typically work with 8-12 clients at any time on projects like:\n * Designing a web app to visualize the background noise of the internet and uncover the next wave of cyber attacks.\n * Creating software to help Fortune 500 companies visualize opportunities for attack within their networks and improve their security.\n * Building a dashboard used by security teams at city governments and utilities to detect abnormal web traffic.\n\nOur clients’ products have been used by brands like Dropbox, Lyft, Microsoft, Nike, Yale University, and more.\n\nLast year, we made $700,000 in revenue as a company and are on track to increase that this year. We’re a bootstrapped, transparent company and share our profits with our team. 🎉\n\n**Note: Because some of our clients work with government agencies, this role is only open to US citizens.**\n\n## We’re looking for a generalist to lead projects\nWe're looking for an experienced developer to help take the lead on multiple projects. We typically use Django, Postgres and Heroku on the back-end and Vue or React Native with Tailwind on the front-end. But we care more about your talent and willingness to learn than experience with a particular framework.\n\nWhile we don’t have any requirements for years of experience, this is a senior role so it won’t be a good fit for someone just getting started in the industry. We hope to open up more junior roles later in 2021. \n\n**Excellent communication skills**\n\nThe best developers are great communicators and teammates, not just great programmers. In this position, you’ll take on the role of project lead. This means you’ll communicate directly with the client, project manager and other team members to drive the direction of the project.\n\n**Ability to balance trade-offs**\n\nAt Krit, you’ll solve challenging technical problems, but you’ll also help clients to build entirely new businesses. We look for people who can balance trade offs and are excited by the impact on the business as much as the technology. \n\n**You care about testing and documentation**\n\nWe want our clients to be successful long term, so we build everything to be able to hand it off at any point. This means good test coverage, continuous integration, clean documentation and lots of comments. It has the added bonus of making it easier for new team members to get up to speed quickly on projects!\n\n## What it's like to be a Kritter\nYou’ll be working with clients and the rest of our production team to architect and build new products, as well as to build out new features on existing products. You’ll regularly contribute to documentation and test coverage, and review PRs. You’ll also help mentor more junior team members, and provide guidance and assistance when they get stuck. This is an opportunity to influence the growth of our team, helping to define processes and make the rest of the team better. \n\n**Your responsibilities will include:**\n* Architecting new greenfield projects\n* Building new features for and optimizing existing products\n* Contributing to documentation and test coverage\n* Reviewing PRs and offering constructive feedback\n* Helping other team members troubleshoot bugs\n* Contributing to both the frontend and backend depending on the project\n* Helping define and document new development processes\n\n**In this role, you *won’t* be responsible for:**\n* Managing other developers - while you’ll be expected to help mentor and collaborate this is not a management role\n* Project management\n\n**You’ll be a human, not a number**\n\nWhile we’re not perfect, we are passionate about creating a great place to work. We’re striving to build a culture that’s respectful, supportive, and challenging. You won’t just be a number here, you’ll have a measurable impact on the direction of the business. \n\n**You’ll be a part of an inclusive, transparent company**\n\nOne of our goals is to build a more diverse company. To us, this means diversity of race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, age, disability, and national origin. We strongly believe in building an inclusive workplace where everyone feels safe and invited. We are also a fully transparent company. We share our finances, salaries, pipeline and more.\n\n**You’ll be part of an engaged team**\n\nEvery day at 4:00 pm EST we have a standing meeting where we check in and make sure we're staying on track. Each month we have a team meeting where we look at project milestones, our finances, marketing plans, and the pipeline. Once a month you'll also have a one-to-one meeting with Austin (our Creative Director) where you'll look at your goals, progress, and be encouraged to give us feedback.\n\n## All roles at Krit come with:\n**💸Competitive salary + profit sharing**\nThis will be a salaried position paid a starting salary of $92,000 per year with 5% annual raises. All full time team members also participate in our yearly profit sharing program and receive yearly raises. \n\nOur salaries and raise process are completely transparent, you can see our Compensation Model here. For this position we are looking for a Level 4 Developer. \n\n**👩‍⚕️Benefits**\nWe offer competitive healthcare plans, as well as dental and vision insurance and 401k matching up to 4% (starting in 2021). \n\n**🏖Vacation days**\nAll Krit employees get 15 vacation days (effective immediately) as well as 10 company holidays. Sick days don’t count as vacation, if you’re sick don’t make it worse with work. \n\n**🌎Remote**\nWhile we have a home base in Charleston, SC most of our team is remote. We have team members in Charlottesville, Chattanooga, Durham, Austin, and Washington DC. \n\n**Note: Because some of our clients work with government agencies, this role is only open to US citizens.**\n\n**🕰Flexible hours**\nEveryone is different. As long as you can be available for team meetings and are able to communicate effectively with the team, work when you work best. We do expect you to average about 6 billable hours per day.\n\n**💻Equipment budget**\nEvery new employee gets $2,500 to spend on equipment, so you can pick whatever works best for you.\n\n**☕️Co-working/Coffee budget (Remote)**\nWe want you to have the space you need to do your best work. We’ll give you up to $200 per month to put towards a co-working space. Or if you prefer going to a coffee shop a few times a week then we’ll cover the coffee tab.\n\n**👼Paid family leave**\nWe offer a family leave plan of up to 4 weeks paid vacation and 4 weeks unpaid regardless of your gender.\n\n**📚Professional development time**\nTwo Fridays every month we spend the second half of the day on professional development time. This can include taking courses, building sample projects to try out new tools, contributing to the company blog or playbook, and more.\n\nWe’ll also cover the cost of books, courses and provide time for conferences on a case by case basis. \n \n\nPlease mention the words **SOMEONE KISS SALON** when applying to show you read the job post completely (#RMjE2LjczLjIxNi4yNDM=).
