What are the responsibilities and job description for the Founding SW Engineer position at hireVouch?
Mission
The mission of our first engineer is to help us build the features we need to scale. As the first hire, the work this person does will become core infrastructure and strongly influence our engineering for years to come. This person will likely lead a team as we scale.
Expected outcomes
- Architect and implement whole parts of the app from scratch, such as web-based, on Windows, and Sharing UX. Take responsibility for quality, delivery, and maintenance. These should be delivered quickly and improved iteratively.
- Collaboratively improve our existing codebase and practices, explaining options to the rest of the team and obtaining buy-in when making significant changes. However, the candidate should take the initiative to suggest improvements proactively while acknowledging priorities and accepting decisions.
- Should be shipping features weekly, daily. This person needs to be an energetic startup engineer, productive in our codebase, and capable of shipping code to production by day two.
- We should be comfortable with this engineer speaking with customers and conducting customer research independently, without requiring a product manager.
- Conversations with the engineer should be efficient, with a strong grasp of technical, product, and market concepts, as well as second and third-order effects.
