About the Job

Growmotely is looking for teammates who are naturally curious and love to ask questions. We cultivate an inclusive culture where everyone can contribute, grow, and feel valued. As a Software Engineer at Growmotely, you’ll jump right in and work on projects that are important to our success. Our team collaborates with the rest of the company to execute on engineering projects that help Growmotely scale and move forward. Come join us and help build technology that is transforming the future of work!


We are currently seeking to fill multiple software engineering positions on our front-end team. We are looking for team members with a background in building and deploying Angular applications to join Growmotely as a full-time member of our system engineering team.


A day in the life (the job responsibilities, what you’ll be doing, how we roll):

  • Collaborate. With back end engineers, visual/interaction designers, other front end engineers, devops engineers and product owners to launch new features, iterate on existing features, and build world-class user experiences that are changing the future of work!
  • Writing great software - as an integral part of the system engineering team, writing code is the job. We’re currently running on Angular 9.x (we’re preparing to upgrade), Typescript, HTML, CSS, etc. You will be working closely with our back end team to build a world-class application and platform, but the front end is your primary domain.
  • You will regularly interact with internal and external users to understand their needs and create solutions using fast iterations and prototyping in a highly collaborative way.
  • You are product-first over tech-perfection, prioritizing "shipping working code to users and getting feedback" over "getting the tech just right." The tech and getting it right is essential, but you understand that "perfection is the enemy of good enough."
  • Being relentlessly curious about modern cloud-native options (e.g., AWS, Lambda, Serverless framework, observability, Kubernetes, dockers, RDS, etc.). You won’t rest on your laurels, you are always looking for ways to improve your skills and the platform you are working on.
  • Focus on creating software that is clean, readable, scalable, robust, testable, easy to maintain, and easily deployed.
  • Being systems minded while still delivering real value to both internal and external users.
  • You are learning new things and love it -- every day! We are relentlessly curious!
  • Very few meetings. We're entirely remote and distributed and try to keep the need for meetings to as few as possible. 


About you:


We know there’s no such thing as a “perfect" candidate - we’re all a work in progress and are growing new skills and capabilities all the time. We encourage you to apply for a position with us even if you don’t meet 100% of the requirements. We believe in fostering an environment where there is a diversity of perspectives and room for growth in hopes that we can all thrive.
