About Triplebyte

Come help us build the future of software engineer hiring!

Triplebyte is on a mission to create a more just tech industry by fixing hiring for software engineers. This is important because millions of people have skills (and deserve good jobs), but don’t fit the profile that recruiters seek. We aim to cut out that noise by matching opportunities to people who have the skills to succeed in them - regardless of their background. Companies fromstealth-startups to global brands source and hire engineers from Triplebyte.

Over the course of 2020, we've executed well on a major pivot in our business strategy amidst a global pandemic and economic recession. Now, we're emerging from the pandemic stronger than ever. We have plenty of runway, we've been outperforming on sales / renewals, and we're excited to ramp up on our favorite activity, hiring software engineers, again.''

We have an all star list of investors, some of which include: Garry Tan, Sam Altman, Paul Graham, Justin Kan, Drew Houston and Michael Seibel just to name a few.

About the role

Our assessments are only as good as the content/questions behind them. They have already helped thousands of engineers from non-traditional backgrounds get jobs. But they have the potential to help hundreds of thousands. To achieve this, we need to expand content into many more specializations. We're looking for a 'Quiz Master' at Triplebyte to own this process. Creating high-quality test content is not easy. Questions don't just have to be technically correct. They also have to reflect what matters most in each area and be written in a clear, compelling language. This is an excellent role for someone who likes puzzles, programming, editing and wants to dive deeply into the taxonomy of skills behind engineering. This is a good role for someone who values an irregular, self-determined schedule.

What you'll be doing:

• Hire and manage subject matter experts to write items for our assessments.
• As chief ‘editor of the quiz’, be responsible for the english quality, tone, and and technical correctness of questions.
• Work with the assessments team to develop and test content for new item types. 

What you'll need to be successful

• Broad engineering knowledge. This person probably lives trivia and understanding how computers work. They probably have an engineering background and are probably very smart. 
• Strong writing/editing of english. They need to be able to edit questions from subject matter experts who are not strong writers. They will set the tone of our assessments. 
• Previous remote work experience is a strong nice to have.

Even if your experience doesn’t match all of the above requirements, we invite you to apply anyway. We recognize that talent comes in different forms. Our business is matching engineers with their next great opportunity, regardless of background. We apply the same ethos to our internal hiring. We're looking for a team member with enthusiasm and the ability to do the job, not a perfect resume.
