Job description

We are looking for a Software Engineer to join our Product team in Vancouver, where we build features end-to-end, from designing our data models to implementing the subtle interaction behaviors that differentiate good software from great software. In this role, you won’t just code—you will be an integral part of the entire product development process from conception to post-launch reflection, manifesting continuous improvements to help us achieve our mission of enabling all teams to work together effortlessly. Partnering closely with UI designers and supported by our infrastructure team, you will aim to delight users with both large new features and daily product enhancements through our continuous deployment architecture. If you care deeply about building products that improve how millions of teams work together, we would love to hear from you.

This role is based in our Vancouver office with an office-centric hybrid schedule. The standard in-office days are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Most Asanas have the option to work from home on Wednesdays. Working from home on Fridays depends on the type of work you do and the teams with which you partner. If you’re interviewing for this role, your recruiter will share more about the in-office requirements.

• Work with asynchronous jobs and implement algorithms that efficiently traverse the Asana Work Graph.

• Partner with legal to implement data ownership rules, requiring simple and effective technical solutions to make this process easy and clear to customers.

• Drive large, impactful projects, delivering features that will be rolled out and used in large organizations.

• Support and collaborate with other teams and stakeholders that work in the team’s space.

About you

• 3+ years of experience working within large, well-maintained codebases.

• Excellent communication skills for collaborating with cross-functional partners (e.g., Product Management, Design).

• Sound judgment when balancing development velocity with producing high-quality, maintainable code.

• Passionate about creating a superlative user experience and highly attentive to details.

• Appreciate productivity and care deeply about helping teams, including your own, collaborate more effectively and efficiently.

• Excited to be a part of an inclusive culture where everyone brings the aspects of themselves to the workplace that they need to thrive.

• Demonstrates curiosity about AI tools and emerging technologies, with a willingness to learn and leverage them to enhance productivity, collaboration, or decision-making.
