Software Engineer

Cord is a product-first company building tools that make modern day team collaboration better than it has ever been. Our culture is open, nurturing, and transparent. We hire brilliant people and give them all the freedom and context they need to do great work. At Cord, we believe in hiring for talent, hard work, and team alignment. You won’t find managers chasing people for expense reports or requiring day-off approvals. We care about the work our team gets done, not about what time they clock in or which days they take off.

Because we’re early stage, our most core value is iteration over perfection. We ship new features at least weekly. We’re constantly trying to learn what we’ve missed or what we’ve gotten wrong. The team is curious, switched-on, and creative. Day by day, we’re getting closer to a sticky product that our users love.

We’re looking for an engineer to join our team and help us build something great.

Our ideal teammate

Tech

While the list below includes the core of our tech stack, it’s worth pointing out that it doesn’t matter if you know any of this on day one. We run onboarding sessions and trust that bright folks will learn our tech stack on the job.

Perks

At Cord, we believe in making sure our team has the tools they need to do their best work. That’s why we supply each new hire with a new laptop (Mac or PC, whatever you prefer) when they join. In addition to that, we set up everyone with a 27-inch, 4k monitor. In our office, we enjoy fully electric adjustable height desks (sit or stand). Because we want to be flexible as we grow, all our desks are on wheels. Need to work with someone? Just wheel your whole desk over. We also have free snacks delivered weekly to the office – fruit, chocolate biscuits, seaweed snacks – whatever the team wants.

We want a happy team, so we also make time for play in addition to the work. Every Thursday at 5pm we stop working and have a social catch up. This means free drinks, sometimes over board games at the office. Outside of work, we make sure people have the time to do what brings them joy, so we offer an official 26 holiday days per year, but no one keeps track of this and we don’t care how many days people take as long as they get good work done. We’re a high-trust, high-expectations company.
