Company mission
To create a more livable, more affordable, more mobile work - with far fewer parking spots.
Role
Who you are
- Spent 3-5 years doing front-end work
- Spent 1+ year doing React Native work
- Worked in a startup environment, ideally on a small/distributed team
- You’re an expert at front end technologies like JavaScript, CSS, React, and related tooling (npm, yarn, jest, eslint, etc.)
- You care about the latest ECMAScript and browser standards and follow new developments with nerdy intensity
- You’ve worked on an app that is in the App Store / Google Play
- Even if you’re not an expert in iOS / Android, you can hack together some native modules when needed
Desirable
- You have experience in native mobile development, either iOS with objc/Swift or Android with Java/Kotlin
- You are proficient with Python or a similar language not used on the front end
- You have experience working on deploying backend services to AWS or Google Cloud
- You have experience setting up CI/CD infrastructure from scratch
- You have built something from the ground up before
- You care about problems related to parking and efficient use of space and resources in cities
What the job involves
- We are seeking a skilled React Native Engineer with a strong interest and background in front-end web development
- You will join a small (but mighty!) team that is improving how buildings and cities utilize space by making it possible for them to share unused parking
- You are a collaborator and partner in building an app that is beautiful and powerful, inside and out
- You will partner closely with the Engineering, Product, and Design teams to help build our iOS and Android apps, which are built on top of React Native
- The mostly untapped private parking industry offers immense potential for growth, development, and significant impact
- Build high quality software with an eye for making it easier for yourself (and future hires) to code/test/deploy the app
- Make great decisions about architecture and libraries that are informed by mistakes you’ve made in the past
- Care deeply about the product and user experience you’re delivering, advocate for what you believe in, and then commit and build whatever the team decides
- Roll up your sleeves and proactively jump into projects or challenges that you identify
Our take
Inefficiencies in the way parking is handled, especially in the US, have led to an overabundance of parking lots taking up land that could be better used by communities. Parkade aims to revolutionize parking at offices and apartment buildings with its parking spot reservation and management app.
With the Parkade app for tenant buildings, users can reserve, change, pay for, share and report problems with their parking spots. Its automated parking spot leasing covers any duration of lease, and expands parking capacity by making it simple to share unused spaces. The company's offering for offices enables businesses to switch their parking facilities to a lease model, giving them better control over how parking space is utilized in their lots.
With the ultimate aim to enable future structures to be built with less parking, Parkade has set its sight on real impact for city planning and optimized spaces. Funds raised by the company are cited to help broaden and accelerate product development, as well as fuel a period of aggresive expansion.
