How you can help make a better world of work

You’ll be joining a team that works on crafting the central shared services that underpin our product – #team_permissions_and_login. Our mission is to provide shared services that improve Culture Amp's ability to build new features and to operate, maintain, and grow the platform at scale. This involves multiple software stacks including authentication, authorisation, web gateway, and more.

We play a pivotal role in contributing to the product growth with a keen eye on building to scale. All our teams are cross-functional and have the autonomy and responsibility for bringing features from conception all the way through to owning them in production, and you’ll be involved throughout that process. Permissions and Login services work in multiple areas and projects which can change regularly, eg. one project may be working on a Ruby on Rails monolith, another on a Go/NextJS microservices infrastructure.

As part of this team of amazing humans, 

You will:

• Tackle a wide variety of technical problems across our codebases as you build features and help us move to a distributed and event-driven architecture.
• Collaborate with other engineers in your team through pair/mob programming, writing solution designs, or giving feedback on pull requests, to build shared understanding of your work.
• Work with the product managers and designers in your team to understand customer problems and help to develop, refine, and then implement solutions.
• Maintain and support the services your team is responsible for. Ensure our dependencies are up-to-date, observe and understand services in production, refactor code, and attend to issues raised by our customers.

You have:

• Experience with either TypeScript, Next.js, Ruby, Kotlin (or a willingness to learn)
• You have experience in building web-based software applications. You understand fundamental engineering concepts, scalability, security, and maintenance.
• Exposure to building and maintaining frontend services
• Develop responsive and visually appealing user interfaces
• You have experience writing and operating backend services.
• You have a good process that involves documenting your work. You write code that is consistent, maintainable, and understood by your teammates.
• You understand the value of test-driven development and know how and when to add tests. Your code is thoroughly covered by integration and unit tests.

You are: 

• You are a proactive and clear communicator. You value empathy and kindness and are able to articulate your ideas and feelings when writing or speaking, and are open to the perspectives others bring.
• You are self-motivated and can work independently. You take the initiative to ensure that you have everything you need to work efficiently and call for support when required.
• You are interested in understanding and solving customer problems. You think about how your work – at all levels – impacts our customers and improves their experience.
• You are aligned with our values and demonstrate them through your working practice.
