Here's What You'll Get To Do:

  • Work with a small team comprised of engineers, a product manager, and designer to build our product.

  • Troubleshoot production issues and implement fixes for them.
  • Help our customers have an awesome experience with our products.
  • Write, audit, and improve our test coverage

Here's What We're Looking For:

  • 5+ years of product development experience
  • Thorough understanding of node.js and its core principles
  • Familiarity with TypeScript
  • Familiarity with GraphQL and Apollo
  • Experience building and delivering successful products. You can take rough themes and big ideas and turn them into product features with minimal guidance
  • Passionate about PlayVS and the problem we are solving
  • Committed desire to understand our customers
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills
  • Possess a growth mindset: Live and breathe experimentation, data analysis, and ruthlessly prioritize for impact
