What we look for

  • Product-minded engineer who cares deeply about the customer and the business. High attention to detail in design and interaction to strive for a delightful user experience.

  • 2+ years of full-stack coding experience building products end-to-end and love owning a codebase top to bottom.

  • You’ve either worked at early-stage startups and/or you’re a tinkerer-builder, often hacking products on your own or with friends.

  • Strong verbal and written communication skills. Thrives when working with a team and has immense drive and passion towards the work you do.

  • Bonus points if you have prior experience in the talent and recruiting space.

What you'll do

  • Speak with our customers of all sizes on a daily basis

  • Design and build products from end to end that recruiters and customers love to use

  • Work closely with recruiters to learn and develop tools to make them 10x more efficient

We power talent for a wide range of customers:

We've raised money from:

  • Co-founders - Twitch, Doordash, and Eventbrite

  • VCs - A* Capital, Soma Capital, Founders Inc, and Primer Sazze

  • Leadership - Palantir, Opendoor, Ramp, and Scale AI

Other highlights:

  • GMV/Revenue increasing 50% MoM

  • We are about to move into a beautiful new office in North Beach. Check out video of it here

About the team

Hey 👋 we're John and Jeff, the co-founders of Paraform. Funnily enough, this all started when we tried to recruit each other in 2022. Ever since then, we've experienced first-hand how broken recruiting is and our mission is to finally fix it. Here are some of our values:

  • We work hard and enjoy being together in person. We are transparent about our work ethic and expectations because it enables us to have extreme ownership in building at a pace that is unmatched.

  • Customers, customers, customers. We're customer-obsessed and always start with the customer first. We are the customer support team.

  • Ship fast and break things. We believe great products come from lots of experimentation, so we value fast development. No one is going to wait around for us to make things, especially something that's perfect.

  • Take care of each other. We trust each other and want to enable everyone to do their best work. That means an all food and transportation compensated, gym membership, unlimited PTO, global offsites, premium healthcare and a free bike.
