Posted on Tuesday, March 12, 2024

Hey there 👋 I'm Alexandra Sunderland, Director of Engineering at Fellow, and I’m looking to hire senior full stack software engineers to join our mission of making meetings effective for everyone. At Fellow, you’ll get to work on a team that’s passionate about learning, helping each other out, and producing high quality products and code at the intersection of meeting productivity and AI.

We're hiring remotely, but have offices and co-working spaces available throughout Canada in Ottawa, Montreal, and Toronto where you can pop in to work with other team members if you want some in-person time!

Key Responsibilities

  • Build across the entire stack of our application. We use React/Typescript, Django/Python, Relay/GraphQL, and more.
  • Constantly experimenting and building with new AI technologies, and LLMs, and discovering ways to use them to improve the Meeting experience.
  • Work directly with our team of designers, product leads, and QA analysts to create intuitive interfaces and great experiences.
  • Collaborate closely with teammates to build new features and participate in constructive code reviews.
  • Contribute to our CI pipeline by writing unit tests, regression tests, and integration tests for your code.
  • Always be learning from each other and contributing back to the team.
  • Write and contribute to technical specs, define and monitor release metrics.
  • Work with product, design, and engineering leaders to scope, break down, and build projects.
  • Promote engineering best practices to the team, and lead the way in adopting new technologies and methodologies.

Ideal candidates

  • Experience building web applications (for example, with Django, Ruby on Rails, Node.js...).
  • Excited to bring ideas to the table, and eager to learn.
  • Enjoy having top-to-bottom ownership of new features, including crafting technical specs, writing readable and extensible code, and keeping tabs on post-release metrics.
  • Have 5+ years of programming experience (this can include personal projects, internships, co-ops, or anything you think is relevant).

Engineering at Fellow

We ship projects quickly: Build cycles are 8 weeks long, during which your focus is on your project. No weekly sprint planning meetings here! A great deal of care is put into breaking down projects to fit into the cycle while allowing for proper QA process, thorough code review throughout, and written tests. Our CI pipeline, linting, thoughtfully designed code structure, and strong partnerships with the product team allow for us to keep this velocity while maintaining exceptionally high code quality.

We care a lot about the engineering community: Many members of the team are strong contributors to OSS, publish blog posts with software tutorials, and speak at conferences and local meetups.

Our interview process

We have designed our interview process to allow you to meet many different members of the team, and showcase different skills such as written communication, mentorship, collaboration, adapting to feedback, problem-solving, and more. Each step has been carefully thought-out to make sure that we're making the most of our time together. You can expect the following when interviewing at Fellow:

  1. ~15min call to learn more about you and tell you about Fellow, with our CEO, Aydin.
  2. 30min (max) Pull Request review task.
  3. 90min panel interview with 3 members of the engineering team, including our CTO, Sam.
  4. Small fun project to be built using Django/React, can be shared publicly too.
  5. ~30min chat with our Chief Product Officer, Amin.
