Software Engineer I

Who we are:

Most of what we build is back-office software for property managers, including lease tracking, work orders and tenant payments. We make a web-based inventory and purchasing system used by independent restaurants, breweries and small food manufacturers.

The role:

Rochester Cloud is hiring a Software Engineer I to work remotely from the US. Nobody expects you to know every framework. We want someone who writes clear code, tests it and asks good questions. Our Identity team is six engineers and we're adding one more. Most of the work is backend services, with some internal tooling. This role is fully remote within the US. We do not have many meetings. Most updates happen in writing. Equipment is provided, including a laptop.

What you'll work on:

• Contribute to postmortems and follow through on the action items.
• Ship small, frequent changes behind feature flags.
• Mentor junior engineers through pairing and code review.
• Take part in an on-call rotation (roughly one week in six) and help resolve production incidents.
• Write unit and integration tests and keep the CI pipeline green.
• Improve the reliability of existing code instead of just adding features on top of it.

Requirements:

• 1-2 years of professional software development experience.
• Familiarity with Git, pull request workflows and CI tools like GitHub Actions, Jenkins or CircleCI.
• Willing to join the on-call rotation once ramped up.

Benefits:

Starting pay: $105,000 - $122,000 per year, depending on experience and certifications.

• Medical, dental and vision insurance.
• 401(k) with 4% match.
• 11 paid holidays.
• Flexible schedule.
• Professional development budget.
• Life insurance.

If this sounds like a fit, apply with a resume. A cover letter is optional.

Start: Within 30 days.
