What youâll be doing
Youâll be joining our CFT Engineering team, working primarily on Circuit for Teams, a web-based product designed for delivery businesses. Expect a mix of front-end (React/TypeScript) and back-end (Node.js) work, with around 70% front-end and 30% back-end.
Your Typical day-to-day
- Building new features and improving existing ones across the full stack, making sure everything runs smoothly and efficiently.
- Working closely with product managers and designersâfiguring out what needs to be built, suggesting better ways to do it, and making sure the end result is great for users.
- Writing clean, maintainable code and making improvements where things could be simpler or faster.
- Debugging tricky issues and solving problems that help keep our app reliable and scalable.
- Sharing your thoughts in technical discussions, helping to shape how we build things, and making sure weâre using the best approach.
- Keeping an eye out for ways to improve performance, user experience, and how we work as a team.
What you wonât be doing
- Lots of meetings. Expect ~one meeting per week. If you rely on frequent check-ins to stay on track, weâre not the right fit.
- Working to unrealistic deadlines. We optimize for long-term progress, not burnout!
- Strictly following specs without questioning. Youâll collaborate with PMs and designers to define the best approach.
- Managing people. While youâll share knowledge and manage your own projects, this is a hands-on individual contributor role.
- Being siloed in your work. Weâre a small team that values cross-functional collaboration.
Weâd love to hear from you if you:Â
- Would describe yourself as a highly skilled wen engineer who knows React and TypeScript inside out.
- Are comfortable working on the backend with Node.js when needed.
- Work well independently and can figure things out, even when requirements change.
- Enjoy solving tricky problems and know how to balance speed, quality, and complexity.
- Communicate clearly and enjoy working with PMs and Designers to build the best possible product.
- Have built user-facing web apps before and understand what makes a great experience.
- Can spot a simpler way to do something and arenât afraid to suggest it.
It would be nice if you have:
- Experience with Firebase, monitoring tools, or cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure).
- Experience working in a product-led company.
- Prior exposure to DevOps practices and CI/CD pipelines.
- Experience in open-source contributions or leading technical initiatives.
Who we are, what we do, and how itâs going
Back in 2017, we saw an issue with last-mile deliveryâit was too complicated and stressful for drivers. Circuit started a mission to change that by choosing to develop an app that put the driver, and their customers, first.
We were astounded by the response we received. Within our first year, we had almost 1,000 customers, $100k in ARR, and a team consisting of our two co-founders, Jack and Pol. With a lean team of ~40, weâve grown to $25M ARR, helping over 100,000 drivers deliver more than 1 billion packages worldwideâabout 20 every second!
Our Hiring ProcessÂ
