We're hiring Frontend Software Engineers at DataGrail!

At DataGrail, Frontend engineering strikes a balance between the worlds of Software and Design. We work with designers to help them craft practical ideas in Figma, then use our expertise with web technologies to bring that vision to life. We care about testability, maintainability, and enabling developers to build features with ease. We seek out feedback on our approach to problems, and provide positive reviews that help to teach and enable others to improve alongside us.

You’ll Own

As a Frontend software engineer, you’ll build and own DataGrail’s core products. These systems build trust for our customers and keep them compliant with the law.

Our Frontend stack consists of React and Typescript. We use Styled Components and React Material UI to bring designs to life, and we test those implementations with React Testing Library and RainforestQA automation suite. You don't need to know these exact technologies and you don't have to be an expert in all these areas, but prepare to shine in something.

‍You’ll Improve

Our engineers take a broad view of what to improve in how we build products.

DataGrail is growing...fast. The decisions we make today may not make sense in two years. The best engineers pivot from problems to solutions. You’ll help the team make appropriate tradeoffs. You’re comfortable with good enough over perfect.

You might focus on reinforcing our security posture. As a privacy company, we are serious about security.

You may help us improve our tools and workflows for getting code into customer hands faster.

Or you could work with Customer Success to give new customers the tools to be successful faster. We’re fanatical about customer experience and sweat the details (include “Alan Turing”in your resume or cover letter).

You’ll Teach

Software engineering is a team sport. You’ll bring others along and join them on the journey.

Do you have a great tip for debugging via your IDE that saves you tons of time? We want to see it on Slack.

Did you present at a conference on what you learned scaling another system by 100x? Give the talk as a lunch and learn.

We’re hiring you for all the past lessons building software that you’ve internalized. Yes, even the mistakes you’ve made.

You’ll Learn

You’ll learn how to scale a business, an organization, and a product.

We’re building an enduring organization. Understand the privacy landscape today and build on its frontier in real time.

Other Details

We have multiple openings for this role as we hire to accelerate our product development delivering against strong customer and prospect demand.

We're currently focusing on people who are mid-level (4+ years) and above in experience. This will allow us to best mentor and grow earlier career hires well into the future.

This position is remote first focused on candidates in the United States and Canada. People located in the Bay Area can choose to work from our downtown San Francisco office.
