Senior Front End Engineer

Homebot is an exciting, fast-growing company, revolutionizing how homeowners build wealth with the single largest asset they’ll ever own -- their home.

We sell our SaaS platform services to real estate agents, lenders and loan servicers as a way to keep customers engaged long after the sale is complete. Our customers love us and we love them!

We are preparing to expand our engineering team and we’d like to bring on an experienced Senior Front End Engineer. If you are a person who can drive features forward, reconcile feedback from across the organization and are self-motivated to learn new technologies, we want to talk with you!

If this opportunity gets you pumped - perfect! Apply below and we look forward to speaking with you very soon! (We also read cover letters so take a moment to tell us what makes you a great fit for us!)

This is a full-time position based in our Denver, CO office. (Currently, due to COVID-19, we are working remotely and will continue to do so until there is a vaccine widely available. Until then, you can work remotely in another state but will eventually need to be in the Denver area)

Targeted Base Salary Range: $130,000.00 - $150,000.00. For additional details on our total benefits package, please review the section “Why Homebot?” at the end of this job description.

We are looking for someone who is specifically looking to move in the near future into a Team Lead role. Responsibilities here will still keep you in that technical space writing code but also helping plan sprints and architect bigger solutions alongside product. You also will work with your team in 1x1 settings to help mentor and grow.

Who We Strive To Be as Homebotters:

• Servant Leaders: We serve our teammates and customers first, with the purpose of enabling and supporting them to be successful
• Respect, Thoughtfulness & Maturity: We show through our actions
• Accountability: We know our jobs & take ownership
• One Team: We make decisions, get in the same boat, & paddle together
• Diligent: We are persistent in the details
• Initiative: We seek improvements continuously
• Solution Drivers: We create solutions rather than focus on problems
• Positivity Builders: We recognize that great attitudes are contagious
• Learners: We fail fast & share from our experiences & mistakes

What You’ll Be Accountable For:

• Helping to build and maintain our React frontends
• Driving innovative features and visualizations using tools like mapbox, D3 and other tools
• Working with and maintaining solid HTML & CSS style guides and component libraries
• Collaborating with team members through code reviews and occasional pair programming
• Working with team leaders and product to inform product road mapping, identifying bottlenecks, bugs, and devising solutions to problems
• Understanding the vision and overall strategy
• Helping maintain code quality, organization and automatization

Collaboration:

• This role will report to Director of Engineering
• You will work closely with Product and Design on grooming efforts
• This is a new team we’re building so you’ll be the first engineer hire for that team but we have 17 Engineers total. While the team gets built out, you’ll work on an existing team on very closely related projects to build relationships, get familiar with code bases and processes.

Experience & Qualifications:

• 5+ years of production engineering experience
• 3+ years working on SPA Javascript frameworks
• 2+ years of React / Redux
• Ability to respond to situations in a timely manner, and meet personal commitments
• Experience in writing tests and Test Driven Development

Bonus Points:

• You are familiar with Ruby on Rails and Node.js
• You are familiar with Ember.js
• Experience with DevOps tools like Docker or Kubernetes is a plus

More about Homebot

Problem we’re solving:

The US homeownership market is the largest asset class in the world at $30 trillion but is essentially an “unmanaged” asset that causes homeowners to leave billions of dollars on the table every year. At the same time, loan officers and real estate agents spent $20 billion a year on desperate attempts to maintain mindshare and loyalty with their past clients in hopes of gaining more repeat and referral business.

Our solution:

Homebot is a client-for-life portal that maximizes repeat and referral business for lenders by empowering consumers to build wealth through homeownership. The award-winning client portal delivers personalized, actionable intelligence throughout the entire homeownership lifecycle to every client and prospect. With an average 50% monthly engagement rate, Homebot ensures lenders and agents remain the trusted advisors that consumers rely on to make informed decisions about the largest asset they may ever own, their home.

It’s definitely a game-changer and we are truly making an impact. Having launched in 2016, we're over 80 Homebotters strong and expect to continue that growth throughout the year. Join us!
