BetterUp is a mobile-based coaching platform that brings personalized professional coaching to employees at all levels. We help managers lead better, teams perform better, and employees thrive personally and inspire professionally. Our mission is to help professionals everywhere pursue their lives with greater clarity, purpose, and passion. Our product was developed by a team of leading behavioral scientists, researchers, and technologists. We’re already transforming the way companies approach talent development at high-performing organizations like Airbnb, Genentech, Mars, LinkedIn and Workday.

This is a remote role, anywhere in the US!

Your responsibilities will include

  • Product Engineer - Collaborate with designers and stakeholders to craft consumer grade experiences with SPA frontend (Ember) and RESTful backend (Ruby on Rails).
  • Lean and Agile Owner - Collaborate with cross functional teams to distill and synthesize requirements into discreet and meaningful iterations that can be implemented quickly to facilitate tight feedback loops and learning via data and metrics.  Leverage Lean Startup and Agile methodologies along with Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment infrastructure to rapidly prototype and validate ideas.
  • Data Spelunker - Answer business questions and influence product roadmap decisions using statistical analysis, ad-hoc reporting, or machine learning algorithms for offline modeling.  Enable team members to answer questions with data systems and processes that leverage quantitative and qualitative inputs.  
  • Operational Maintainer - Build scalable and tolerant systems using container technologies (Docker) and cloud infrastructure (AWS) as well as internal tooling to accelerate product development cycles.

You will be successful if you

  • Act as an owner - It’s not done until it’s in production.  Adept at moving projects forward and able to unblock projects regardless of role on the project.
  • Do less, deliver more - Familiar with the terms YAGNI and yak shaving?  Focus your efforts on high impact initiatives that really move the needle.
  • Impress yourself - We hold ourselves to a quality above and beyond something that “just gets it done”.  Each line of code is an opportunity to blend craftsmanship with playfulness.
  • Collaborate without ego - Willing to take on roles small or large in order to further the mission at hand.
  • Stay on your edge - Continuously learning and applying emerging technologies.  Pushing yourself and your team to new heights.
