WHAT YOU'LL DO We're a tool built by engineers for engineers. You will work on features that impact thousands of customers globally and have the ability to change how applications are built across all parts of the stack. You'll meet with internal counterparts to enhance customer thinking and partner closely with product on building out features. You'll have a large impact on new features or improve performance on thousands of customers' applications.
Retool is built primarily in JavaScript and TypeScript, Node.js on the backend, and React on the frontend. We'll look to you to bring your experience to build within this environment and impact our codebase. You'll also engage in technical decision-making with the team, participate in planning, and help our engineering team expand its skillset. To that end, you'll also play a key role in helping us grow the team through interviewing potential new team members.
WHO YOU'LL WORK WITHAs an engineer, you will work closely with product and design teams to build, ship, and iterate new features. We're a hard-working, passionate bunch who are motivated by collaboration, strong results, and bringing the impact of Retool to our customers. When we're in the office, we enjoy eating lunch (and occasionally dinner!) together, and we've been known for our lively game nights. But at the root of it all, we come together to show our customers and not-quite-yet customers how Retool can make them and their companies more efficient and successful. If this sounds like a fit, we'd love to hear from you!
IN THIS ROLE YOU'LL- Improve the UX of the Retool core editor, which involves plenty of interesting problems, both technical (e.g. "how do we implement our drag and drop system in a performant way?") and otherwise (e.g. "how do we handle the pushing of existing components when dragging new components on?")
- Expand the types of applications that you can build into different parts of the development process
- Debug customer problems + build features for them (e.g. "the Google Sheets integration doesn't support adding rows
