Software Engineer

Disproportionately impact a product-driven startup that is transforming the way companies grow their teams. We’re building next-generation collaboration software that helps companies to bring more transparency, participation, and engagement to their hiring.

Jump into an empowered role doing end-to-end feature development. You’ll be familiar with all parts of our stack—most notably our homegrown, open source web framework, DerbyJS. Not only will you learn how to develop on a modern, real-time framework, you’ll be building enterprise-grade software on top of it. To do so, you’ll exercise judgment in making tradeoffs between design and feasibility. Choose when to hack and when to invest. You’ll engineer your features to be scalable and resilient in a large, single-page app.

Lever is an incredibly design-driven company and you’ll be an active voice in shaping our product and user experience, down to the last detail when shipping your features. Our close-knit, cross-functional team is a great chance to grow your knowledge of different domains. Level-up your knowledge of design theory and UX by working closely with our Design and Customer Success teams. Share your knowledge with them so that they’re more empowered to hook up their front-end code to support users with more internal tools.

You’ll join a team where everyone—including you—is knowledgeable about development patterns and opinionated about product development process. We pitch in to help when things are crazy. We build tools and scripts to ease the lives of our fellow developers. And we’re passionate about lots of random things, and share those passions with each other.

Core technologies:

JavaScript, Node.js, MongoDB, Redis, Solr, Elasticsearch, DerbyJS, ShareJS, IMAP, SMTP, Gmail and Google Calendar, Microsoft Exchange, AWS

Lever builds software for teams to find, interview, and hire top talent. Our team strives to set a new bar for enterprise software with modern, well-designed, realtime apps. After going through Y-Combinator (Summer 2012) and raising a seed round in 2012, we have the support of many fantastic advisors and investors and are gearing up for an incredible, fast-paced year.

Lever is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace dedicated to pursuing and hiring a diverse workforce.
