Full Stack Engineer

At Windwalk, we strive to build the strongest network of communities, for our own games as well as for our clients. Windwalk’s Community team is growing quickly and we have an exciting, ambitious roadmap ahead of us. As an early Community hire, you will have the opportunity to wear many hats as we grow and scale our company.

You will be the first hire responsible for building the custom applications that support our unique community experiences. As part of this new team you can expect to be gathering requirements from community managers, implementing new features for our custom web apps, and building rich dashboards to increase the efficiency of our live operations.

As a team, we favor progress, learning, and speed over perfection. We are a fully-remote international team, where everyone works autonomously with the expectation that you can be available for team syncs during the same core hours (8:00 am through 10:00 am PST). The exact times and days vary per team. We offer competitive compensation that is location and level based.

WHAT WE NEED:

• Someone who can build performant, maintainable React-based SPAs and is comfortable implementing API endpoints.
• Someone who is excited to work close to product, distilling the needs of community managers and moderators into concrete project specs along with a designer.
• Someone who’d love to build more of these:
  • Gamified web apps for Discord communties (i.e. gatcha-style games, social idlers)
  • Custom dashboards for Discord admins (i.e. stat visualizers, raid prevention, moderation tools)

WHAT YOU HAVE:

• You know how to write and maintain code.
  • Good code is a balance between timeliness and maintainability. You have hands-on experience building cool stuff that gives you strong instincts on how to best maintain this balance.
• You are product-minded and collaborative.
  • We don’t have a hierarchy of PMs that distill requirements for you into a nice checklist - you (and your team) are the PMs. You have experience building software in an uncertain environment and know that the best way to build the right stuff is to ask the right questions.
• You are obsessive about cross-browser support including mobile.
• You know how to build awesome things with React.
• You are competent with at least one frontend component/style library.
• You are familiar with C#, enough to orient yourself in a codebase and make contributions.
• You are comfortable writing SQL queries to get the data you need for application-building.
