About the Role
Join a mission-driven engineering team passionate about helping nonprofits drive real impact. You'll work on meaningful software alongside a collaborative team that values creativity, autonomy, and continuous growth. Beyond the technical skills, we value people who think critically, collaborate openly, and bring fresh ideas to how we work and what we build.
What You'll Do
Design and build thoughtful, reliable features across the full stack. You'll work on backend services and APIs just as much as the frontend, and we need you to be strong at both.
Bring strong UI and UX sensibility to your frontend work. Good enough isn't good enough when clients are depending on it.
Proactively evaluate tradeoffs and speak up about them. We want someone who thinks about business value and client impact without needing to be asked.
Own your work from sprint planning and ticket refinement through implementation, peer review, and demo.
Use AI tools as a normal part of how you work, whether that's coding, debugging, or researching. This is table stakes for us.
Think critically about where AI can create real value for our clients and help shape features that deliver on that.
Partner closely with product managers, designers, and QA to ship things people actually want to use.
Give and receive code reviews in a way that makes everyone better, not just the code.
Share what you know. We grow together here.
