About the role

We're looking for a Software Engineer focused on our product. This hire will own the engineering behind key product expansion, a quickly rising quality bar, and the architecture of the application our customers live in all day. Our product engineers are full stack with a slight frontend skew. While numerous difficult customer workflows and interactions sit in the client, you'll still ship and own features end to end. You should be comfortable in DBeaver with Postgres or digging into the React profiler.

What they're looking for

  • At a high level, we want technical depth plus the taste to know what not to build. You should actually give a shit about how the product feels under a user's hands
  • 5+ years building production web applications, with significant time in a large, long-lived codebase
  • Deep React and TypeScript - you know how rendering actually works and you can reason about it without guessing
  • Real browser performance work: profiling, interaction latency, memory, rendering
  • Has owned complex client-side state in production - not just fetch and render
  • Solid backend fundamentals: you've designed APIs and relational data models, written migrations, and run server-side code in production (we're Python and Postgres on AWS and GCP)
More about this role

Rebar is building the AI operating system for commercial HVAC, Electrical, and Plumbing.

Over the past year our quoting platform has processed tens of thousands of projects across North America and we’re continuing that growth. Our customers include many of the top firms in the industry. Some of these companies are running billion dollar construction projects on workflows that still look like it's 1985.

Construction is 10% of GDP and still massively underserved by software. We are changing that.

We raised a $14M Series A from leading construction tech investors and are entering our next phase of growth. We are building a set of AI native products that will define how this industry operates.

The role of the engineer is rapidly changing. We're aware and we're being very intentional of ensuring we adapt with it. We are fostering an engineering culture of growth and development. We strongly emphasize care of craft and winning together. Our core values are:

Everyone operates like an owner

Find a way

We win together

That being said the whole company still works really hard! This is something that you should read and internalize. This might not be the place for everyone.

We're looking...
