Hi, I’m Chris, the Co-Founder and CTO at Navattic.
I'm excited to share more about this internship position as performant testing & quality assurance practices will enable us to ship high quality code, faster. In this role, you'll join Navattic's product engineering team in developing, implementing and improving QA/automated testing across Navattic's application and user-created demos.
This is a paid summer internship role that runs June - August 2022.
Engineering Culture
Our engineering culture is motivated by our belief that a small talented team, given the right environment, can build high-quality software fast.
Collaboration is Natural & Communication is Deliberate
Engineers at Navattic (and the team at large) are naturally curious, have deep end-user empathy and are earnest to collaborate. These attributes create an environment where collaboration happens naturally (we filter for it in interviews). We’ve found that extended periods of focus, combined with a bias towards action, are powerfully amplifiers of productivity at Navattic.
Increase Leverage, not Team Size
We built Navattic with the quality, breadth, and depth that many customers would expect from much larger teams over larger time scales. We’ve done this through investment in:
-
Great developer tooling. We’ve built a CI/CD pipeline to facilitate rapid deployments. We’ve also built custom developer sandboxes to reduce time spinning up new environments and conduct performance tests.
-
Building blocks to create powerful and customizable demos, fast. Our no-code builder is powerful, but easy to use (see an interactive demo) using modular components. Building with composability in mind is an essential part of our philosophy.
Your Internship With Navattic
We want an exceptional onboarding experience for every new hire. At Navattic, we spend a lot of time focused on building your confidence in our codebase and practices. We’ll pair you with a peer who’ll guide you through your first tasks and be someone you rely on, from answering questions to pair programming.
Technology Stack
I’m sharing our tech stack with the caveat that we don’t require previous experience in it (but a love of typed languages is helpful 😀): TypeScript (frontend & backend), Javascript, Node.js, React, Apollo GraphQL.
Benefits
-
Competitive salary
-
WeWork All-Access Passes (we have satellite hubs in NYC and SF)
-
Dedicated lunch & learn sessions, exposure to other functions of the startup that are of interest.
Navattic’s success hinges on hiring great people and creating an environment where we can be happy, feel challenged, and do our best work. We’re being deliberate about building that environment from the ground up. I hope that excites you enough to apply.
