Full Stack Developer

We make small businesses more successful through better banking

Our company is looking for a Full Stack Developer to join our growing team as we enter a new phase of expansion. We are a New York and Toronto-based, venture-backed startup at the heart of the FinTech movement that is shaping the way financial services are delivered.

Our product

NorthOne is a mobile, tech-powered bank account built for startups, freelancers, and small/medium-sized business (SMBs). Poor financial literacy has an outsized impact on the costs and failure rates amongst SMBs, and we are on a mission to eliminate these problems. We are more than a banking platform, we are the world class Finance Department that SMBs could never afford.

Our team

We ? technology. Thoughtful and rigorous product development makes us giddy. That's why when it comes to software development, everybody plays in the orchestra. We've got a fast moving team of full stack developers lead by our VP Engineering who's spent over a decade building technology at both Fortune 500 companies and startups. Our COO has helped build digital products used by companies like Frank and Oak, Supercell, MachineZone, BMO, and Trivago. Oh, and our CEO? 6 years at McKinsey working on digital customer experience in financial services. We're building a product that solves real pain, vs the imagined kind. Is this sounding like home yet?

REQUIREMENTS

Today you might be a Software Developer, Full Stack Developer, Software Engineer or the equivalent in your company.or something that we haven't heard of yet - we keep an open mind.

The most important characteristic for a Full Stack Developer joining our team is your attitude. We want you to join because you don't see roadblocks, you see opportunities to be at your best. You know that somehow, you and the rest of our team can figure anything out.

These team skills that will make you successful in this role (note that this comes before all else):

• You get your hands dirty: You are comfortable diving into new projects, exploring other's code. Whatever it is, you like to stretch outside your swimlane.
• You're curious: You're excited about the bleeding edge of tech without being dogmatic about any language or framework and are excited to passionately share your views with us.
• You know that tech is a team sport: You understand that learning from and teaching other great developers makes the whole team better.
• You're mission first: You get stuff done and you don't let anything get in the way of moving our product forward.

The skills that will make you successful in this role:

• Required skills:
• Expert knowledge in at least one modern programming language (ReactJS, Python, Django, TypeScript, NodeJS preferred)
• Worked with complex and secure server architectures (e.g., distributed, stateless)
• Deep knowledge of API protocols and GraphQL
• Developed web or mobile applications based on technical and functional specs
• Expert knowledge of AWS (e.g., Redshift, IAM)
• Mobile app development experience (using React Native, Java, or SWIFT)
• Nice to haves:
• Basic DevOps experience
• You've worked with AWS (e.g., Redshift, IAM) and understand how to build secure systems and applications
• Experience with microservice system architecture
• Have built or worked on Android mobile apps (Java or React Native)

Experiences and stories you can tell us around the campfire:

• Participating in a scoping process for a pre-production software application
• Working on a production system with a regular release cycle, including mobile applications
• Shipping one or more software applications
• Working on a major refactor of a software application
• Contributions to an open source project
• Planning for crises, working through them when they were unavoidable

Few people have been trained for this sort of role. If you are this close to what we've described, but aren't sure, apply. Let's figure out together if this is where you could shine.

BENEFITS

Our mission is big and audacious, but we're assembling a team to take the challenge head on.

As a Full Stack Developer you'll be joining a team that prioritizes:

• People: Our company is more than just a business. We're a band of brothers and sisters supporting each other on our mission to rebuild business banking. We're really serious about mission, fit, and the people we work with. You'll be part of a rapidly scaling team that reflects these values and keeps this place special.
• Diversity: You'll find yourself in an environment that values diversity and inclusivity. Excellence doesn't come in one flavor and neither should we.
• Leadership: You're right in the thick of it, making critical decisions that will clear our path forward.

We offer full health/dental benefits, competitive compensation/equity, and one hell of an adventure.
