New York, Any
Full Stack Rails & React Engineering Lead (Remote & 4-Day Work Week)
Who we are:
Hi, we’re Smalls! We make quality food for cats. We believe that the food your furry friends eat should be prepared with 100% human-grade ingredients, leaving the fillers, mystery ingredients and 25-year shelf lives of traditional pet "food" behind. We consider it both our mission and our privilege to help cats of all shapes and sizes live happier, healthier lives.
We raised our Series A in 2020 and are working towards building a platform that scales with our growth. We are a small team of ~25 with venture funding to grow quickly and prove something!
What you’ll do:
We're looking for a full-stack engineer to lead our fast-moving engineering team and work collaboratively with product, design, marketing, ops, and customer support.
This person will lead our engineering team, supporting individual engineers as well as the establishment of development processes.
This person will be a key decision-maker, responsible for building and maintaining our platform. You’ll impact revenue by writing high-quality software to support our growing customer base.
An ideal candidate would be someone who is excited to write good code, eager to provide mentorship to their teammates, and enjoys collaborating with other departments.
- Iterate quickly by minimizing the scope of work and delivering with the most appropriate solution
- Work directly with business, fulfillment, and marketing teams to brainstorm solutions to problems and suggest technical approaches
- Contribute clean, testable code.
Who you are:
- 5+ years experience as a software engineer
- 2+ years leading an engineering team
- Recent experience working as a Full Stack Software Engineer in Ruby on Rails, React, and Node
- Team player who is motivated by the chance to write software that empowers a successful and growing business
- Enthusiastic about learning (both technical skills and how a DTC business operates at scale)
Bonus Points ? :
- Experience working on DTC and subscription services
- Solid understanding of software design/architecture principles
- Experience with Typescript, Node.js
- Experience with tools like Heroku, Netlify, Segment, Contentful, Shopify, and Stripe
What We Offer:

- Medical, dental, vision plans (100% employer funded)
- 4-day work weeks (Fridays off!)
- 401k
- Unlimited PTO
- Smalls subscription for your kitties!
- Fully Remote Office and Culture: our team is located across all four US time zones.
- Mission-driven company: highly motivated by cat health.
- People-driven company: we work hard, but prioritize mental health and avoiding burnout.
- Data-informed culture: we do not make decisions without consulting the data.
