At Justworks, you’ll enjoy a welcoming and casual environment, great benefits, wellness program offerings, company retreats, and the ability to interact with and learn from leaders in the startup community. We work hard and care about our most prized asset - our people.
We’re helping businesses get off the ground by enabling them to focus on running their business. We solve HR issues. We’re data-driven and never stop iterating. If you’d like to work in a supportive, entrepreneurial environment, are interested in building something meaningful and having fun while doing it, we’d love to hear from you.
We're united by shared goals and shared motivations at Justworks. These are best summed up in our company values, which are reflected in our product and in our team.
If this sounds like you, you’ll fit right in.
Who You Are
You are a senior product engineer who enjoys solving hard problems where software, APIs, and real developer workflows meet. You can take a partner's desired customer experience, understand both sides of an integration, and deliver a practical, supportable solution with the capabilities that are available today.
You bring strong API and web-platform fundamentals, communicate comfortably with external technical audiences, and care as much about the developer's path to success as the code itself. You are not satisfied with repeatedly solving the same problem by hand: you turn what you learn from partner work into better SDKs, documentation, tooling, and integration patterns.
What You Will Work On
How You Will Do Your Work
As a Senior Software Engineer, how results are achieved is central to success at Justworks. You will demonstrate:
You model Justworks' COGIS values—Camaraderie, Openness, Grit, Integrity, and Simplicity—in both the products you build and the relationships you create.
Qualifications
Nice To Have
Technologies and Experience
Our work spans TypeScript/JavaScript, Go, Ruby, AWS, containers, relational data stores, observability tooling, API specifications such as OpenAPI, and OAuth/OIDC. You do not need every technology on day one; you should be able to learn quickly, select the right tool for the problem, and write well-tested, well-documented software.
The base wage range for this position based in our New York City Office is targeted at $188,000 - $242,000 per year.
