What You Need:

  • You have a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field and at least 2 years of software development experience on a large-scale web application.
  • You communicate well whether you’re getting specs from a stakeholder, writing those specs, explaining a design to your colleagues, or patiently helping a user 
  • You can analyze a feature story and design a robust solution for it. You can create specs for complex business rules and calculations.
  • You write well-designed code that you and others will find easy to understand and modify six months from now.

  • You know how to design good databases and your SQL skills are solid.
  • You’ve built UIs using HTML, CSS and Javascript (including OO JavaScript, not just JQuery). Experience with single-page application frameworks like Angular is a plus.

Our Technology:

Our application is a challenging and complex system that includes lender and borrower interfaces, workflow, document management, advanced automation, and integrations with external entities and services. 

The server architecture is stateless, cleanly managing the business logic and persistence layer, exposed as a RESTful JSON API. The server is written using a combination of Java 11 on Jetty, and Node.js for asynchronous tasks. Our database is MySQL with MyBatis ORM and uses Redis for caching and non-critical message queueing.

The UI uses a custom, JavaScript MVC framework with dynamic code loading modules, client-side routing and templates, powerful data-binding features, integrated services, and advanced component architecture.

Our applications are containerized, utilizing AWS services to deploy on EC2 via ECS.  We use Aurora to scale and handle DB failover. We monitor with CloudWatch and push urgent issues to PagerDuty for triage.  We use Jenkins to test and deploy.

All infrastructure is built with Infrastructure-as-code tools like Terraform. Server images are built with Packer to enable reproducible results with security hardening. We use GuardDuty, AWS Config and Macie for security analysis.

We develop on Macs, manage our code in git, and collaborate using chat and Asana.

What We Offer:

  • Strength, Stability, and Vision.
  • Great compensation package.
  • Opportunity for career growth.
  • A commitment to be a relevant market leader - we are aiming for the top!
  • Octane, our engineered proprietary technology that is transforming the mortgage industry.

  • Generous paid time off package that also includes all major holidays.
  • 401K w/ 50% match - Beginning the 1st of the month following 30 days of employment.
