About Kojo
It's time to build. Whether it's creating more housing, upgrading our infrastructure, or adapting to climate change, one thing is clear: the construction industry is at the center of solving our biggest problems. We’re making buildings cheaper and easier to build by transforming the way commercial construction companies buy their materials. Join us.
Founded in 2018, Kojo is now one of the fastest-growing construction technology companies in the world. Construction accounts for $10 trillion in global spend annually and we can’t live without its output - our roads, schools, hospitals, and offices. Despite this, there’s been very little innovation over the past 70 years in how materials - which constitute up to 40% of project costs - are bought and sold. This is our opportunity.
About the role:
We're hiring an experienced Software Engineer to play a critical and versatile role in shipping key aspects of our application and integrations.
This role will include:
Co-owing the delivery of a product that transforms the construction industry
Scaling our integrations and internal infrastructure to handle a growing customer base
Working closely with customers (especially enterprise) to navigate problems and provide timely solutions for their implementation needs
Serving as an integral part of building engineering, product, and company roadmaps
Helping support the continued growth of Kojo’s engineering organization, from process, to hiring, to culture
About you:
A team player who enjoys serving customers, company-wide collaboration, and diving deep into writing clean, consistent, and performant code will thrive at Kojo!
What you’ve accomplished:
Proven track record of shipping quality software (3+ years professional experience preferred)
Deep experience working with Typescript, GraphQL, Node, Docker, Elasticsearch, and PostgreSQL
Comfortable with a wide range of AWS technologies, such as RDS, EC2, S3, Beanstalk, Lambda, and other common services
Inside knowledge of WebSockets, HTTP, FTP, and other networking protocols as well as RESTful APIS and OAUTH authentication flows
B.S. in CS or a related field, or equivalent experience
Bonus: Experience with integrating with third-party APIs and databases, working with another construction or ERP software, and/or familiarity with Datadog, Sentry, or other application/platform monitoring systems
Bonus: Architecting monorepos, infrastructure as code, CICD pipelines, and other DevOps related configurations
What you care about:
Customer Obsession: You care deeply about our customers and go the extra mile to delight them
Intentional Communication: You have a bias towards written communication and documentation to open up access to your thinking, and you listen with openness and curiosity.
