About the role
Dashworks is the first and only place you need to go to find or discover knowledge about anyone or anything at work. We’re on a path to redesigning the future of collaboration and knowledge sharing. We truly have a unique opportunity to build a category-defining product (and company!) that gets used by millions every day.
We have reached a pivotal stage in our journey:

We’ve built an exceptional team with high talent density, coming from Microsoft Bing, Amazon Alexa, Google, Facebook, Atlassian, and other incredible places.
-
We are very well funded: over $9.5M raised to date from many of the top early-stage investors.
Joining right now would mean you get to ride the wave of explosive top-of-the-funnel growth yet get meaningful equity in a pre-series A startup.
As an early engineer to join our team, you'll have the opportunity to materially impact and scale not just the company's product but also the team and the culture. You'll get to drive key product initiatives end to end and work alongside exceptionally strong co-workers who learn quickly and ship quality work.

-
Contribute to the improvement of the overall product development process, proposing and implementing new ideas and technologies.
-
Mentor and provide guidance to junior developers, helping them grow professionally and technically.

Experience with RESTful API design and development.
-
Strong understanding of databases and data modeling, including experience with SQL and NoSQL databases.
-
Knowledge of cloud computing platforms and services, such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.

Excellent problem-solving, critical thinking, and analytical skills.
