The Opportunity 💻 

EcoCart is on the hunt for a 10x engineer to take our product and team to the next level. In the next few months, you will have a brand-new product to build from 0-1. We are looking for an engineer who can be both an incredible executor and thoughtful mentor to our existing team of 5. With a strong bias for action, the right candidate's default setting is shipping fast and iterating rather than sitting on something waiting for it to be perfect. If you are motivated by having impact in a business and have experience across the full stack, we want to talk to you!

• Champion architectural best practices, ensuring the reliability, security, and scalability of EcoCart’s technology stack
• Mentor junior engineers and play a key role in hiring – this role is expected to be about 50% technical leadership, 50% hands-on execution
• Lead by example in conducting thorough and constructive code reviews, providing feedback that promotes learning and improvement
• Partner with the Product Lead to drive the roadmap forward and optimize processes to ship quality product at scale; foster healthy friction to meet core business objectives
• Report on standard KPIs on a monthly basis to ensure the engineering organization is meeting business objectives
• Manage all engineering schedules, budget and resource allocations
• Collaborate with other engineering leads to make sure we are navigating technical tradeoffs and building the proper technical architecture to scale the business.

• Experience building product and architecting systems from 0-1 in a startup environment. 
• 7+ years of full stack development experience, with an emphasis on frontend development
• Professional programming experience using React/Typescript for building user interfaces and Node.js and/or Python for backend systems
• Experience working with Shopify / other e-commerce applications
• Broad knowledge of programming languages, software architecture, design and database systems. A strong philosophy on how certain technologies help achieve various business goals. 
• Maniacal bias-for-action

• Experience with AWS tooling and infrastructure
• Climate tech and/or sustainability experience
