  • Design, implement, and maintain services to integrate with partner platforms and expedite the customer onboarding process for EarnIn Payroll’s new SaaS product.
  • Collaborate with product managers, designers, and other engineers to deliver features that meet the needs of payroll customers.
  • Assist in investigating and troubleshooting production issues, learning to apply root cause analysis and propose improvements.
  • Support the development of scalable and reliable microservices for time-critical financial workflows.
  • Participate in code reviews, learning and applying best practices while improving your own coding skills.
  • Help ensure features are delivered with quality and within agreed timelines.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR 

  • 2+ years of professional software development experience (internships or projects may count).
  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • Experience building or contributing to modern frontend applications (e.g., React, Vue, TypeScript, or similar frameworks) and a strong appreciation for user experience and usability preferred.
  • Proficiency in at least one modern programming language (e.g., Go, Python, C#, or similar).
  • Experience working with relational databases.
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS preferred).
  • Exposure to infrastructure-as-code tools (e.g., Helm, Kustomize, Terraform) is a plus.
  • Interest in working with Kubernetes-based environments and learning to optimize for resiliency and scalability.
  • Comfort collaborating across the stack, including working closely with design and product to translate requirements into user-facing functionality.
  • Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset.
  • Ability to learn quickly, adapt to new challenges, and thrive in a fast-paced environment.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
