The basics

• The stack: Postgres, Node.js/Express.js, React. Currently running on Heroku, eventually AWS

• The product: we help CFOs at subscription companies do their jobs more effectively

• The way we work:

  • This is a remote job - work anywhere you want! Any timezone on earth (or outside earth, whatever)
  • We are an asynchronous team - we don't do scheduled meetings, and rely on each team member to pick their own schedule and to communicate clearly in writing and with recorded videos
  • We operate completely autonomously - no one will tell you what to do, we'll just tell you the goals and you will figure out how to work towards them with the rest of the team

• The role you'll play on our team:

  • You'd be one of the first five engineers on the team, and the first very senior hire
  • You'll work on database design and implementation, complex data management problems, API design and implementation, some front-end React app code, building and iterating on our product, collaborating with designers and founders, and making a product that users will love

• Like all start-ups we're scrappy, but not scrappy on compensation: Chiffer is committed to paying our awesome team members at market-rate, including benefits.

Our interview process

Our interview process is designed to focus on your skills as a software engineer, and your ability to communicate clearly. We're a fully asynchronous company, so that's how we will communicate in this interview process too 🙂

1. We'll do a quick review of your background based on what you include in your application email
2. If it's a fit, we'll ask you to work on a ~90 minute exercise while recording a loom (or other screen recording) video.
3. If the video interview above goes well, we'll want to learn a bit more about how you communicate in writing - we may ask you to put together a technical design document. This is one of the biggest ways we communicate at Chiffer, so we want to see that you can work well with that!
4. If we like what we see, we'll ask you some questions over email
5. If everything seems like a fit, we'll ask you to work on one more ~90 minute exercise while recording a video
6. And finally, hopefully we'll send you an offer. And hopefully you'll accept!

Requirements

• You're an excellent senior engineer who has (senior: 5+ / principal: 10+) years of experience building web applications, designing databases and APIs, and working with others
• You're a great communicator via writing, and via recorded videos
• You're excited about working on a globally-distributed and diverse team, in an incredibly unique culture where autonomy, accountability, and ownership are equally as valued as your skillset.
• That's it

Benefits

• Unlimited vacation
• Completely flexible work schedule - work literally anytime (and anywhere) you want!
• Benefits appropriate to your location (health/dental/vision in the USA)
• Company wide retreats multiple times per year
• Like all start-ups we're scrappy, but not scrappy on compensation: Chiffer is committed to paying our awesome team members at market-rate, including benefits.

The Engineering team

The Moneyhub engineering team works together to deliver a full open finance platform consisting of web & mobile apps, APIs and data services. This role is in our Core feature team, working with front end and API developers to implement new app features and improve existing ones.

What you’ll do

This is definitely a role biased towards the back end - we’re looking for people that are very comfortable developing Node services within a Microservices architecture, but you do need at least an appreciation of  front end development and frameworks like React.

As well as Node and React, you can expect to grow and gain a huge amount of experience in Microservices, MongoDB, AWS, GraphQL, OpenBanking, Elastic stack & API development. We’re looking for candidates who are willing to learn (rather than being experts in these areas), but it’s great if you already have experience with a few things on our list, especially those in your preferred area of the development stack.

You’ll thrive using agile methods and enjoy working openly, collaboratively and as part of a fast paced multidisciplinary team producing high quality code.

As a member of our technical team you’ll:

• 
  

  Design, create and maintain Node microservices underpinning our D2C and whitelabel app features

• 
  

  Write Requests for Comments to help the team validate and refine your approach to implementing requirements

• 
  

  Apply broad knowledge of web technologies to provide security, privacy, performance and scalability within the back end

• 
  

  Work closely with our front end developers to implement features. Sometimes working within our React codebase yourself

• 
  

  Increase code quality by actively participating in peer code review

• 
  

  Improve our processes and tools through communication, automation and optimisation

• 
  

  Build automated unit, integration and end to end tests as part of our continuous integration and deployment environment

• 
  

  Share knowledge of tools, techniques, new features and ideas with the Moneyhub team of developers and non developers

Who you are

We’re interested in people who:

• 
  

  Have experience in back end Javascript development

• 
  

  Understand software design principles such as functional programming (we use Ramda extensively)

• 
  

  Are fluent in relational and non relational database design and engines; we use PostgreSQL and MongoDB

• 
  

  Have worked with microservices interacting via REST APIs and through message queues

• 
  

  Actively enjoy working as part of a team to solve issues and suggest solutions as part of feature development and support

• 
  

  Consider how your work fits into the system, and take an interest in what the platform does for the people that use it

• 
  

  Communicate with accuracy and effectiveness

• 
  

  Have a firm understanding of web security

• 
  

  Are aware of technologies used for web applications, e.g databases, backups, CDNs and search, and of Unix-like operating systems, e.g. Linux and/or Mac OS.

About You

You are infinitely curious and thrive in an environment where you are constantly learning and growing. You want to be somewhere that you are trusted and set up for success every day. You want to be somewhere that surrounds you with great managers, engineers, and co-workers who drive you to be better everyday.

You strive to set the team up for success by helping them overcome potential obstacles and communicate their needs to the appropriate channels. You’ll work with the team to identify their strengths and weaknesses, and enable processes to support their unique working style without compromising their efficiency (a little rudder far from the rocks).

Together with the team, you will support delivery by providing estimations, context, and clarity to ensure the team delivers the agreed work with quality and excellence.

The Node Team provides APIs and web servers for a suite of single page applications as well as our online banking product. Our APIs are first-class in nature and are consumed by both our internal teams as well as teams outside of Banno. The engineers on your team are constantly keeping our apps up-to-date with the newest development and deployment practices to offer exciting user experiences for highly secured data.

About the Banno team

We are committed to creativity, thoughtfulness, culture, and openness—the perfect place to make phenomenal products that have a big impact. Our work environment echoes a modern tech startup but we have the security and benefits of a large, publicly traded company. We place high value on continuing education and contribution to, and use of, open source projects.

Our team is distributed and that means you can live and work wherever you want within the US. You’ll get the chance to choose your own tools, work with bleeding edge web technologies across the stack, and contribute to products that are used by millions of people.
