Software Engineer (SF, NYC, or Remote in US)

About us

Office Hours is an online platform that lets users earn income by sharing what they know. Users create knowledge profiles to accept hourly consultation requests or survey opportunities based on their professional expertise. Companies and organizations seeking unique insights can quickly and easily search the Office Hours marketplace to find and learn from thousands of advisors on demand.

What we believe

We believe that human knowledge is the world’s most valuable asset. And yet, despite being more interconnected than ever, most knowledge still remains stuck in our heads, inaccessible and underutilized. Office Hours’ mission is to help everyone realize the value of what they know by building tools for the knowledge-sharing economy.

Our team is headquartered in San Francisco and backed by top marketplace and business operators like Saar Gur, Marco Zappacosta, Lenny Rachitsky, Jackson Gates, and Aaron Levie. Our customers include the fastest-growing digital health companies, software startups, venture capital firms, and leading consulting firms.

Summary

Similar to Uber or Airbnb, things are simple on the surface: search, match, connect, and pay. But under the hood, there are endless fun and challenging engineering problems across search, discovery, recommendations, data, logistics, payments, and performance. We’ve built the entire stack from the ground up: profiles to showcase what people know, search experiences to find and discover relevant matches, workflow tools and integrations to help streamline logistics (e.g., compliance, scheduling, payments, etc), & even an underlying knowledge graph that helps stitch all of these experiences together.

For this role, we're specifically looking for a driven, creative product engineer. They’re likely a generalist who enjoys diving deep into user needs and bringing those solutions to life.

• You take pride in your craft and have a track record of shipping high-quality products and features at scale
• You can turn user and business problems into engineering solutions
