Job description

About The Role

You'll be working on systems handling exceptional scale. We ingest and process billions of data points from our brands' entire tech stack, and we build high-converting product experiences powered by that data. If you're looking for the chance to learn how to operate real systems that scale, Endear will give you that opportunity.

About Us

Endear is a retail CRM that empowers brands to drive more in-store sales by giving their retail teams the tools they need to succeed. Despite retail being 6x larger than eCommerce, much of the technology industry has largely ignored brick-and-mortar retail. Retail salespeople are the only salespeople in the world without a CRM to do their jobs.

We have built a platform that enables brands to leverage their thousands of salespeople with AI to have 10x more personalized, human conversations with customers to drive sales. We have proven product-market fit and are capitalizing on this massive overlooked market opportunity by building the first modern CRM for retail teams.

What You'll Own

• All of our engineers work across the stack; we expect you to as well.
• You will own features from conception to deployment and technical support.
• Work with a team that highly values engineering's ability to have an enormous impact on the business.

Why This Role Matters

You will be working on systems handling exceptional scale. We ingest and process billions of data points from our brands' entire tech stack, and we build high-converting product experiences powered by that data. If you're looking for the chance to learn how to operate real systems that scale, Endear will give you that opportunity.

Our Work Environment

• Remote-first culture built on trust and autonomy
• Small, highly effective team (20-ish employees)
• Fast-paced environment with shifting priorities
• High-ownership culture where outcomes matter
• Collaborative atmosphere that values learning and teaching

About Our Company

Founded 5 years ago, Endear has demonstrated strong product-market fit and reached profitability multiple times. Our platform was built from the ground up by technical leaders who have scaled data platforms to hundreds of millions of users and been at startups from early-stage through IPO. We make measured, high-conviction decisions at every milestone to ensure long-term success while realizing our massive potential in the retail market.

How To Apply

If you're excited about owning and scaling product design at a fast-growing startup, we'd love to hear from you.

Endear is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

Requirements

What We're Looking For

• You like to wear lots of hats and learn quickly. We are still an early-stage company, and our priorities shift frequently. We are looking for people who have worked in those environments before. A resume full of exclusively big-tech companies is a yellow flag. If that's you, tell us why you're ready to shift to a fast-paced, high-ownership role.
• You are excited about remote work opportunities. We are a remote-first company and treat our employees like adults. Do what you need to do to take care of yourself. We focus on your outcomes and impact, operating with significant autonomy and independence.
• You've built for scale or at an organization with scale. Share your experience with scaling systems or building experiences for a large user base. Bonus: send us a note or recording explaining what you did, why, and how.
• You love learning. All engineers at Endear love to learn and teach others. That's how we grow and stay a small, effective team.
• You are curious and excited to solve technical challenges with an interest in software engineering.
• You're comfortable with Typescript, our preferred language, or have extensive experience with other web technologies.

Required Experience

• 5+ years of software engineering experience
• Experience at early-stage startups
• Proven track record of building and scaling systems
• Experience working directly with executive teams and stakeholders
• Mentoring other engineers and leading initiatives

Benefits

• Cash compensation starting at $175K + equity
• Access to a 401(k) plan
• Comprehensive healthcare including dental and vision
• Home office or co-working space stipend
• Flexible PTO with unlimited vacation days
• Opportunity to shape the future of retail technology
