Role
Who you are
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience)
- 5+ years of full stack engineering experience
- Strong proficiency in front-end technologies like NextJS, React, Typescript, and/or Chrome Extensions
- Experience working with GCP and/or AWS and a love for architecting and orchestrating services in the cloud
- Proven experience optimizing and scaling applications to perform and scale at their best
- Strong experience with databases (relational and object) and are solid at SQL
- Comfortable with ambiguity and can build anything from an idea or an RFC
- Excellent communication and collaboration abilities in a team-oriented environment
Desirable
- First and foremost, you’re someone who not only enjoys the idea of building something from scratch but also thrives in a highly autonomous environment. We want someone who is ready to build, iterate, and ship at speed and loves it. You’re also open to dialogue and a feedback culture, kind, open-minded, and excited about bringing other top-tier people to the team and building something great
What the job involves
- We are looking for product-minded engineers that will empathize with our customer’s needs and work closely with our users and the rest of the team to bring creative ideas to the product. We are a small but mighty engineering team which means you will have full ownership of your projects, including deliverables and timeline
- In concrete terms, our next engineering hires will own one of our key initiatives and bring it to life. Those initiatives are currently:
- Build many core functionalities that make Arcade the easiest story-telling tool such as more intuitive and powerful animation tools, while keeping users’ learning curve at zero
- Build many core features that make the resulting Arcades super engaging such as “choose your own adventure” logic to the stories
- We have more on the roadmap and these initiatives are what we’re currently targeting
- On the front end, our stack is heavily Jamstack-based with Next.js, Typescript, as well as a Chrome Extension. On the back end, we use GCP (Firestore, Cloud Functions, PubSub, IdP, and a few other services) and AWS (Aurora). Arcades are embedded on our users site, which means we strive for high-performing code and we must maintain high performance to make that work well
Application process
- Intro call with Recruiter or Hiring Manager
- Technical Interview
- Behavioral Interview
Our take
In order to stand out in today’s climate, product-led companies need to employ marketing strategies that can engage customers at a higher level than classical methods. Arcade Software allows these companies to build interactive experiences for their digital spaces, that spark curiosity and entice new customers to their products.
With Arcade, a company can create product demos in minutes, automatically building from screen captures, videos, and tooltips. The demos can be hosted on client websites, blogs, and social media, with analytics available to inform future edits and updates towards optimizing customer experience.
Arcade Software has served thousands of clients, including Atlassian and Remitly. Funding raised by the company has supported the further development of its product and the building out of its team as it grows into the future.

- Carry the weight: We act like owners, empower each other, and if we see something that needs change, we lead through it
- Play as a team: We play because we’re a creator tool, and we play as a team because great teams build great things together. We keep those standards high. Life is short. Let's build something meaningful
- Be kind: We can be honest and kind. We can have high standards and be kind. We can say no and be kind. Kindness can vary across cultures, upbringings, and languages - but we try our best to be kind
