Carrot is a global, comprehensive fertility and family care platform, supporting members and their families through many of life's most memorable moments. The Software Engineer at Carrot builds scalable, adaptable, and high-quality systems and features that serve end users, collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver solutions that meet the evolving needs of the business.
Responsibilities:
- Collaborate with other engineering teams: you may be a dependency or have a dependency. You will be expected to communicate effectively and keep the necessary teammates up to date on your work
- Improve systems: you will work in systems that need some love, as well in others that may be closer to greenfield. You will need to use your best judgement and pair with others to thread the needle between investment and return
- Keep a sharp eye on user metrics: you will need to work with Product and other functions in understanding user behaviors so we can help users get the care and support they need
- Keep the user in mind: you will work on many member-facing features and you should build these experiences in such a way that they are resilient, adhere to our design standards, and reduce friction where possible
- Write documentation: maintain and author clear and discoverable documentation, ensuring other engineers can get up to speed in areas where you have augmented the code or system
- Innovate and explore: you will explore alternative solutions to problems, following the paved path when it makes sense, but thinking outside the box when it doesn’t
- Take ownership: you are responsible for running the systems you build and will participate in on-call rotations, where we aim for sustainable schedules. You will also help improve observability and runbooks
Requirements:
- You have at least 2 years of experience as a software engineer or equivalent experience
- You are naturally curious and internally motivated to learn new skills
- You understand the balancing game of weighing new feature development with technical debt
- A product 1-pager doesn't scare you. You are excited to collaborate and experiment to figure out the rest
- Experience building with C#, .NET Core, Typescript, React
- You've been experimenting and using AI-assisted development tools and have opinions about how to use them
- Experience with cloud platforms such as Azure and AWS
