The Opportunity

Your Role

You'll build the product that helps people get to better jobs faster and cheaper, with a focus on those facing the biggest barriers to opportunity. As a full-stack engineer here, you'll own features end to end, from design through to production, and you'll have real influence over how we build, not just what. We work with high velocity and a high bar, and we trust engineers to make calls and move.

We're hiring across the mid to senior range. If you're mid-level, you'll grow quickly with meaningful ownership from day one. If you're senior, you'll set technical direction, raise the bar on quality, and lift the engineers around you.

What You'll Own

End-to-end delivery: Design, build, test, and ship full-stack features across the frontend and backend, owning your work all the way to production.
Product partnership: Work closely with Product, Design, and Data to turn customer needs into well-built, reliable software.
Code quality: Write clean, maintainable, well-tested code, and help hold the team to a high bar through reviews and shared standards.
Technical judgment: Make sound technical decisions in your work and weigh tradeoffs as you build. At the senior end, this scales up to system design for larger initiatives, architectural calls, and mentoring other engineers.

Your 30/60/90 Day Plan

This role is hands-on and high-impact from week one. You won't sit on the sidelines learning for a quarter. You'll be shipping early and owning more as you go. Here's roughly what that looks like:

By 30 days: Get oriented and ship

Get your environment set up and ship your first change to production in the first week: a real fix or small improvement, not a throwaway task

Build relationships across Engineering, Product, Design, and Data, and learn how work moves from idea to production here

Get to know the codebase and our stack (React/TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL/MongoDB, AWS), and where the rough edges are

Understand who our users are, the barriers they face, and the problems we're solving for them

By 60 days: Own your work end to end

Take a feature from design through to production on your own, owning quality the whole way

Become a dependable code reviewer and start holding the team to a high bar through shared standards

Develop real judgment about our patterns and tradeoffs, and bring that into planning and technical discussions

Partner closely with Product and Design to turn customer needs into reliable, well-built software

By 90 days: Drive impact

Deliver a meaningful piece of product that customers actually feel

Spot something that slows us down, like tooling, testing, observability, or process, and improve it without being asked

Have a clear point of view on where we can move faster or raise the bar on quality

(At the senior end) take on system design for a larger initiative, make sound architectural calls, and lift the engineers around you

What You Bring - Experiences, Skills, Education

Required Experience

Strong full-stack experience building and shipping production web applications (roughly 3+ years for mid-level, 6+ for senior)
Deep fluency in TypeScript across the stack, owning both frontend and backend
Solid fundamentals in data modeling, API design, and deploying to the cloud
A bias to ship: you break work into deliverable pieces and move it to done without hand-holding
Clear communication and genuine care for the people who use what you build

Bonus Points

Experience at an early-stage or fast-scaling startup where you wore several hats
Exposure to data-intensive products, recommendation/matching systems, or AI/ML-backed features
Interest in workforce development, economic mobility, or other mission-driven work

Our Tech Stack for Engineering

Frontend: React, TypeScript
Backend: Node.js, TypeScript
Data storage: PostgreSQL, MongoDB
Infrastructure: AWS ecosystem
Collaboration: Slack, Jira, Figma

Your Education

Your alma mater isn't our focus. Your grit, hunger, and drive are. If you learn continuously, tackle challenges head-on, and know your strengths and gaps intimately, you're our person.

Use of AI in Hiring

At FutureFit, we use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to make our hiring process more efficient, consistent, and equitable—never to replace human judgment. We use AI in the following ways:

Screening support: AI may help us compare applications against the skills and experience required for a specific role. These skills are defined by the hiring team for each position. A human reviews each application, with the AI assessment as just one input.
Interview support: In some interviews, we may use an AI notetaker to summarize the discussion so interviewers can focus on being present in the conversation.
Insights, not decisions: AI provides data points to support our team’s evaluation but does not make or recommend final hiring decisions. Every hiring decision is made by people.

We will ensure that individuals with disabilities are provided reasonable accommodation to participate in the job application or interview process, perform essential job functions, and receive other benefits and privileges of employment. Please contact us to request an accommodation.
