About the team

Our team is working on a wide variety of projects, including AI/ML modeling, data pipelines, API integrations, engineering enablement, and more. We typically do team selection at the end of the interview process, though with such a collaborative team you'll have plenty of exposure to work and teammates across the engineering department. Each team generally consists of 8 engineers as well as a PM, designer, and EM. Each team works all across the Alloy codebase and product and regularly collaborates with other engineering squads and with folks beyond engineering too. Our features usually cover the full stack, from PostgreSQL through NodeJS and Python API servers (with OpenSearch) up through React/Redux. We build software in two-week Agile sprints. Our deployment pipelines make use of GitHub, CircleCI, Docker, and AWS, among other tools.

What you'll be doing

  • Write code to build new features, fix bugs, and make system improvements according to Alloy engineering best practices -- including styling and testing.
  • Own your own tasks, ask for help, and complete work on time
  • Be responsive to bugs, questions, and other ad hoc issues that arise during day-to-day work.
  • Grow your own skillset by proactively working with and seeking help from other engineers.
  • Productively collaborate with Design, Product, and other Engineers throughout the product development lifecycle, including product and design feedback and code review.

  • Values in-person collaboration in our Manhattan office on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
  • Can walk us through examples of code you wrote from internships, personal projects, school work, open-source projects, etc.
  • Is tenacious when figuring out bugs and building features but also knows how to timebox and ask for help. Our team’s engineers often pair with each other when stuck so asking your teammates for help is welcomed.
  • Enjoys a mix of collaborating on projects with teammates and owning individual projects.
  • Proactively communicates about your work, both the challenges and successes.
  • Is driven to improve by learning from other engineers and finding other development opportunities.
  • Internalizes the “why” behind features, understanding what the users want to be able to do.
