Software Developer

About Woodland Software:

Founded in 2001, the business writes the billing, metering and customer portal software that small water and electric utilities run on. Most of what we build is back-office software for property managers, including lease tracking, work orders and tenant payments. On-call rotates weekly and pays a flat stipend whether or not the pager goes off.

The role:

We are adding headcount to this team, so this is a new seat. We need another Software Developer who likes owning a feature from the design doc all the way to the on-call rotation. The company is based in Denver, the US. We are a distributed team spread across a few time zones. We hire in India through an employer of record, so this is a regular full-time job with local payroll and statutory benefits. You will need at least 4 hours of overlap with US Central time. Strong written English is important, since much of our work is async.

What you'll do:

• Debug performance problems using profilers, logs and tracing in Datadog or Grafana.
• Review pull requests from teammates and give clear, specific feedback.
• Maintain REST and gRPC APIs used by internal teams and outside partners.
• Write unit and integration tests and keep the CI pipeline green.
• Ship small, frequent changes behind feature flags.

What we're looking for:

• 3-5 years of professional software development experience.
• Willing to join the on-call rotation once ramped up.
• Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms and basic system design.
• Working knowledge of testing practices: unit, integration and contract tests.
• Some exposure to AWS, GCP or Azure.

Pluses:

• Contributions to open source projects.
• Background in payments, fintech or another regulated domain.

Compensation and benefits:

• Performance bonus.
• Annual salary review.
• Co-working space stipend.
• Annual team retreat.

Start: Immediately.
