Job Description

Contra is an Independent-first community and commission-free hiring platform empowering the future of work. We match Independents with flexible opportunities and Clients with the perfect Independent for any project — from content creation to coding. We strongly believe that independence isn’t just a gig, it’s a way of life.

Welcome to Contra! We’re an empathetic, kind, and humble team looking for Software Engineers to join us in building the Future of Work and the best community for independents. This is a full-stack role, meaning you’ll have the opportunity to contribute across our web applications and backend services, while focusing on a specific part of the stack that plays to your strengths and preferences, like Frontend or Backend.

We build with cutting-edge technology and have even open-sourced some of our internal inventions, like GraphQL Helix and Yarr that power our codebases. Our team loves to innovate to benefit everyone and deliver a top-notch Developer Experience for our internal team: fast pipelines, great API tooling, and the like. If this environment resonates with your engineering values, we’d love to talk to you!

How you’ll add value at Contra
  • Contribute to our rapidly growing React and NodeJS codebases — everything from our web application to our backend GraphQL API, to our internal services that power payments.
  • Contribute well-tested, end-to-end TypeScript code. We use Jest, Cypress, and some other tooling of our own design to power our tests.
  • Craft readable, performant, and scaleable SQL queries and database schemas to solve data modeling problems.
  • Help improve our internal design system, codebase architecture, application performance, and Developer Experience.
  • Participate in all parts of the product development process, like design critiques, code reviews, and cross-functional planning with your team.

  • Goal oriented. Understand what you need to do in order to achieve your goals without needing all of the bells and whistles.
  • Committed to trying. Have the resilience and willingness to try and try again even if you fail after a few attempts!
  • Ambitious attitude. You bring a strong work ethic and contagious energy to your team as we work towards our North Star.
  • Path Paver. Joining a startup you enjoy taking ownership, building out processes and documentation that might not exist to share with your team members.
