Full Stack Software Engineer [Startup]

At Kipsu, we believe that human connections are at the heart of great service. Kipsu is a high growth startup that is redefining how businesses engage their customers using technology. With an impressive list of clients in hospitality, retail, and healthcare, we are pioneering a new category of software tools that allow companies to interact with their customers via real-time digital channels such as text messaging, internet chat, social media and mobile app messaging.


We love the work we do, how we do it, and we're constantly looking for the right people to contribute their skills and talents to our culture. Currently, we are on the lookout for a Full Stack Software Engineer who wants to join our team and take on the exciting and complex challenges of rapidly growing a software company. At Kipsu, we have built an engineering team that is tight-knit, agile, and embraces talented individuals who take initiative and get out there to make it happen. Sound like the type of culture you would excel in? Yeah, we feel the same way.


WE’RE SEEKING AN ENGINEER WHO:

  • Is proficient in full stack development and has experience writing scalable object-oriented code

  • Wants to work together as part of a high energy, high achieving team

  • Has a demonstrated history of working on projects outside of school or work (show us!)

  • Wants to hit the ground running, contributing to projects in areas like real-time communication, data analysis, user experience, API and SDK development, cloud infrastructure and beyond


BONUS POINTS IF YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE:

  • Building modern web applications with Javascript and current frameworks like Angular, Backbone. or Knockout

  • Working in a solid, scalable backend codebase by applying object-oriented principles using PHP, Node.js, Java, Go, or other languages and frameworks

  • Utilizing Amazon Web Services (AWS) or other cloud computing platforms

  • Building native mobile applications for iOS or Android


AS A SOFTWARE ENGINEER AT KIPSU, YOU’LL USE YOUR SKILLS TO:

  • Design and build innovative new product features, enhancements, subsystems, and microservices as part of a rapidly evolving codebase

  • Find new frameworks, tools, technologies and practices, and put them to work to solve interesting problems

  • Collaborate with a motivated team of peers on software design and code review to ensure that the team is always putting out the best product (and code) possible

  • Work with individuals outside of engineering to develop new products and features that help our clients effortlessly communicate with their customers


In addition to the opportunity to be a key part of a small, focused team at a successful and rapidly growing startup, we offer competitive salary and benefits, a spot in our Northeast Minneapolis office space, and the freedom to, as we like to say, move the needle.


We know we’re not one of the large tech companies (not yet, anyway), but we like it that way. Right now, our currency is opportunity and we've got it in spades. If you're looking to hone your skills and learn a whole host of new ones while playing a critical role on a team of high performers who love what they do, then we'd like to meet you.
