We're excited to add a Staff Engineer to our team! To learn more about Township and how we operate, head to our hiring homepage_.

Why we're hiring

Township has let organic growth lead the way as we’ve carefully assembled our team over the years. As skills develop and new projects come along, we continuously reassess our lineup to ensure that we’re stacking our team with all the best strategic players so that we can thrive. That’s why we’re ready to hire again today. As roles have evolved and our project commitments have expanded, we find ourselves ready to bring in an additional Front-End Staff Engineer to help guide our team and projects towards continued success.

The role

Township is looking to add a Front-End Staff Engineer to our team. Most of our projects are built in an Elixir-centric stack, so interest and/or experience with those technologies is a plus. This position is best suited for someone who wants to join a team as an inidual contributor.

As an engineer, you will find that this role is very hands on. You will collaborate with senior technical leadership and clients on the implementation of business-critical applications. You will create new web applications from scratch, extend current code bases, and design new architecture for future expansions that enable fast-moving companies to meet the demands of growth. Specifically, you will combine your problem-solving abilities and hands-on coding experience to drive the development of early-stage client projects grounded in our full technology stack. You will have the opportunity to help shape crucial architecture decisions to ensure reliability, performance, and sustainability.

**Management vs. Inidual Contributors (ICs) at Township

**

Managers and inidual contributors are compensated the same, even though the roles and responsibilities are quite different. Traditional wisdom suggests that companies should promote their highest performers into management roles, regardless of their interest in or ability to be a manager. Township equalizes management and ICs in an effort to remove incentive from choosing one over the other. Both paths have a clear path set for them within Township, and contribute to the overall team success in important and unique ways.

-Township’s Transparent Compensation policy

While we ask that you designate which career path you are pursuing at this level (manager or IC), please note that we compensate both roles equally at equal levels.

If you are interested in pursuing an engineering manager role at Township, you can find that job description here.

  • You’ll interact skillfully with teammates and clients for collaboration, planning, and requirements definition.
  • You’ll play a key role in architectural and software design decisions.
  • Your most impactful contribution to sprint planning is weighing in on all aspects of feature planning, from discovery to execution and testing.
