THE CHALLENGE

Every company has strategic priorities and urgency to achieve them, but very few have a cohesive, data driven approach to aligning, measuring and driving those strategic priorities at market speed. Yet, this is perhaps the most important business process to growth, and it’s the least automated today.

 At WorkBoard, we’re creating an entirely new solution category with our Strategy & Results Platform to engage everyone from the CEO to the receptionist in understanding, aligning and achieving their organization’s strategy faster. We’re solving a real pain for customers, and our business is tripling every year! As a Full Stack Developer you will be at the forefront of our technology; responsible, influential and deeply embedded in our solution and its future. You will feel supported, engaged, intellectually challenged and stimulated every step of the way. 

THE OPPORTUNITY

As a Full Stack Developer, you'll be a critical member of our team of engineers and developers, collaborating on the various layers of the infrastructure for our platform. You'll work closely with our CTO and our Director of Engineering, AI, and Data Science providing leadership, guidance as well as top notch programming for scale and success.

THE TEAM

You’ll join a team where everyone—including you—is striving to constantly improve the quality of experience we provide our customers by delivering at our best and being voracious learners. We are an incredibly supportive team and close to our customers. When problems arise, everyone in the engineering team pitches in. We are excited about a lot of things—what “best” looks like for our customers, what “breakthrough” looks like in engineering—and we share these passions across the company and with our customers. Customers even attend our hackathons, affectionately named WoBoCon.

COMING IN 

Bring 5-8 years of experience in software engineering as a Full Stack Developer, a builder mindset, and a technical degree. You’ll be working alongside as well as collaborating with our excellent and skilled team, designing and deploying front-end web and back-end architecture, ensuring the responsiveness of applications and working with graphic designers for web design features, among other duties.
