If you've read through the requirements as a checklist and haven't ticked every box, don't rule yourself out just yet. We've seen the research that women and other people in minority groups tend to only apply when the checklist is all ticks and no crosses. So if you think you have what it takes, hit that apply button
We hire with a people-first approach, so more importantly as a human, you will be collaborative, curious, enjoy solving complex problems and have empathy for the growing pains of a rapidly scaling startup. We are looking for full stack software engineers who are great problem solvers, enjoy collaborating with others (not just engineers) that value well-written and tested code.
There are a lot of things we think are great about working at Linktree but we are biased, so here are the key takeaways that most engineers seemed to want to know.
You will be working with many different tools and technologies: React, TypeScript, Node.js, Redis, Fastly CDN, Jest, Docker, etc.
You will work across the entire stack: server-side content matching algorithms, lots of third-party API integrations, front-end features powered by content matching, caching strategies, infrastructure setup and maintenance, customer support/admin, etc.
We strive for a work culture of flexibility + collaboration, which includes fully remote work, focus on quality of work instead of when you work, strong asynchronous communication, mentorship and pairing early and often, etc.
You enjoy helping people, including both your teammates and our users.
You are a good communicator.
You are not afraid to ask for help.
You genuinely enjoy writing code and building software.
You enjoy learning.
Nice-to-have: You have experience in or a passion for music and/or podcasts! 🎧🎸🎙️
Where and how we work:
We are a global, diverse group across age, gender, and race and offer a truly flexible and family friendly work environment. Kids, pets and the occasional delivery person are all actively encouraged to appear on our Zoom screens. All of us at Linktree work either fully remote or a hybrid "remote and in-office sometimes" approach and that will continue even when COVID is behind us.
We currently have offices in Melbourne, Sydney with LA coming next but our team is spread across Australia, Brazil, Indonesia, USA, Canada, Ireland and Nigeria.
Being globally distributed doesn't mean working to one time-zone and we offer autonomy and flexibility in how you structure your days and weeks. There will be the need for some collaboration outside of a "normal" 9-5 being a global company but we aim to work asynchronously where possible.
Our Culture/Benefits:
Linktree's company culture and values are based around collaboration, diversity, inclusion, and flexibility. Those are all nice words but to give you some more specific examples:
We have a paid 18-week parental leave program that is inclusive of birth and non-birthing parents and supports the whole parenting lifecycle
We are proud to offer all regular full-time and part-time employees 20 hours' paid volunteering leave per calendar year.
We have several diversity and inclusion initiatives underway, including a D&I council, training for all staff on neurodiversity, unconscious bias, and the incorporation of a transgender inclusion policy.
We prioritise our team's mental health, with all employees have free access to Headspace and Uprise, including 1:1 coaching sessions from qualified psychologists or counsellors.
All Linktree staff receive $1000 AUD towards setting up their work from home space
