Who We’re Looking For

As an intermediate engineer, you should deliver high-quality product work with clear communication and sound trade-off decisions. Collaboration with product and design teams is crucial to your success, as is your commitment to maintainability, performance, and user experience. Enthusiasm for boosting productivity through AI agents, while prioritizing quality outcomes, is essential.

We value soft skills as much as technical expertise. We seek individuals who empathize with our customers to provide exceptional experiences. If you feel constrained in your current role, we’d like to explore potential opportunities with you.

Communication is Key

As a remote company, effective communication is essential. We’re looking for candidates who can articulate their thoughts clearly and engage promptly, especially using Slack and Linear. Show us your personality through your written contributions!

Key Responsibilities

1. Build and Ship Customer-Facing Products: Deliver polished features for both frontend and backend, ensuring reliability and performance.
2. Take Ownership: Manage your work from discovery and technical design to implementation, testing, release, and iteration.
3. Leverage AI: Keep updated on AI-enabled coding practices and creatively utilize AI in your work.
4. Enhance Engineering Quality: Improve development patterns, minimize tech debt, strengthen testing, and contribute to a healthy codebase.
5. Collaborate Remotely: Work efficiently in an asynchronous environment; provide clear updates and work alongside product and design teams.
6. Support Junior Engineers: Mentor less experienced colleagues through pairing, code reviews, and sharing knowledge.

Key Challenges

• Navigating a rapidly changing industry with a growth mindset
• Enhancing productivity through AI while maintaining security and quality
• Balancing speed and quality in a small team setting
• Making sound trade-offs amid ambiguity and evolving customer needs
• Collaborating effectively across time zones asynchronously
• Upholding high standards in code quality as we scale

Essential Qualifications

• 3+ years of professional development experience
• Strong background in building production web applications (preferably React and Typescript)
• Solid fundamentals in modern frontend engineering (state management, performance, testing)
• Experience with APIs (ideally GraphQL) and relational databases (preferably Postgres)
• Familiarity with AI coding tools and methodologies
• Proficient in owning complete project workflows and delivering iteratively
• Excellent communication skills within a remote environment
• Commitment to high coding standards, security, testing, and maintainability

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in Node.js backend development
• Knowledge of production infrastructure definitions and operations
• Experience with testing frameworks such as Cypress and Vitest
• Familiarity with Shape Up or similar delivery methodologies
• Experience with Ruby on Rails (legacy stack)
• Understanding of security standards and compliance

Ideal Attitude

• Curious and eager to learn
• Pragmatic: Focused on action and delivering value
• Empathetic and collaborative: Enhancing team dynamics beyond just coding
• Thoughtful in decision-making and capable of communicating clearly
• Comfortable with responsibility and accountability

Development Environment

Runn utilizes a modern tech stack, including React, Node, Typescript, Fastify, Hasura, GraphQL, and Postgres, with testing conducted through Cypress and Vitest, and deployment via GitHub Actions on Heroku. Our team leverages cutting-edge AI technologies for development.

Working Methodology

We employ a modified Shape Up methodology, working in eight-week cycles: six weeks of project tasks followed by two weeks of self-directed cooldown time to address technical debt or enhance your skills. Each project team consists of two engineers and one product designer aimed at delivering a releasable feature each cycle.

Transparent Compensation

Runn follows a transparent pay policy, ensuring all employees at the same level receive equal compensation, regardless of location. We do not negotiate individual salaries, as we prioritize fair and equitable treatment across our team. Your salary will be adjusted based on local tax regulations.

Our recruitment process is highly competitive, with many applications for a limited number of roles. When applying, make sure to include a personalized cover letter that explains your motivation for applying, your relevant experience, and a project you’re proud of. Applications lacking these elements or generated by AI will be automatically rejected.

All applicants who provide thoughtful cover letters will receive a personal response. We value your time and ensure meaningful interactions during the interview process, which consists of several steps including resume review, video submission, team fit discussion, technical interviews, and team meet-and-greets.
