What is the opportunity?
We are looking for a talented individual and passionate team player to join the Ownr team as a Software Engineer 1. You’ll be playing a big part in building the next evolution of our platform as we move to provide extensive new capabilities to business owners, working alongside a closeknit group of fun and ambitious engineers, product managers and designers. Your experience will contribute to the functionality, reliability, and delivery of our fast‑moving Node/React‑based application, leveraging the latest JavaScript‑based tooling and best practices.

What will you do?

You’ll have visibility into, and influence over, all parts of the technology stack, and enjoy a high degree of autonomy in your work.

You’ll contribute to the planning, design, development, deployment, monitoring, and maintenance of significant portions of the software that supports our users.

You’ll have the chance to provide and receive feedback from your peers, and get coaching from more experienced engineers both within the team and the broader organization.

You’ll use modern tooling throughout, whether that’s something currently part of our stack, or something new that you assess needs to be added to reliably deliver the desired user experience.

A snapshot of what’s currently in-use:

Web client: React, Styled Components

Web server: NodeJS, JavaScript, TypeScript, Express

DB: PostgreSQL

Infrastructure: Heroku and AWS (services include: RabbitMQ, Redis, s3, etc.)

CI/CD: CircleCI and Github Actions

Testing frameworks: Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress

What do you need to succeed?

You have 1+ years experience using JavaScript to build real world applications, preferably public facing.



You have a good understanding of development patterns and best practices and how they can impact your ability to be productive in a codebase and by extension, the maintainability of a platform.

You have some experience building, monitoring and maintaining software that is highly available, scalable, and resilient.

You’ll take responsibility for finding opportunities to iteratively improve our technology in any feature you work on.

You’ll put in the work necessary to empathize with the software’s users and understand their challenges, whether those users are fellow developers, immediate team members, or the entrepreneurs that rely on us to support their business.

You're curious, and naturally invest energy into learning new technologies, techniques, and interpersonal skills that you feel help improve your own productivity and happiness, and the productivity and happiness of those around you.

You have excellent spoken and written communication, time management, and project management abilities. You behave proactively to set expectations and find support when you recognize that there are unforeseen challenges or complexity in projects.

You are comfortable asking questions and speaking up to help us continuously improve how we do things.

What’s in it for you?

We thrive on the challenge to be our best and work together to help our clients thrive and communities prosper. Here is what you can expect if you join our team:
