Are you up for it?

We're looking for Senior Software Engineers to bring our product vision to life by developing well-thought features that have thousands of users waiting for them. We are not specifically looking for a frontend, a backend, or a full-stack engineer because what matters to us are not positions but what we can build together. And so far there is room for every type of developer.

We could be a great match if:

  • You have an architect track record and have actively designed complex architectures. You have been involved in complex multi-services, multi-technologies environments. You have have foreseen changes to be made over several month to reach a new state.
  • You believe preparing work is more valuable than doing the work. There is nothing that you dislike more than rushing into the code. Instead, you plan and prepare by spending the required time allowing to identify the key areas and the main evolutions needed. The rest should be like playing along a score sheet of music.
  • Youโ€™re a great software developer and individual contributor building fast, reliable, real-time web-based applications. You want to work with skilled people who have a real focus on the customer experience, be it other developers or product and design people.
  • You're looking to take ownership over a project from start to finish: understand the business logic, the requirements and ensuring delivery.
  • You value quality and performance. You build a feature with the highest level of quality possible at the time and working with scaling or high load application is not something that scares you.

Our stack

Weโ€™re not so much focused on libraries but on a more high level approach of how to build the right things the right way. A lot of effort is spent preparing the work, questionning the purpose of the project, the required evolution of the stack and we certainly want to avoid rushing into code.

  • Frontend: ReactJS, Typescript
  • Backend: NodeJS, TypeScript, SQL, Redis, Kafka
  • SaaS: Algolia, Gitlab, Figma, Slack (gif-less so far...)
  • Hosting: AWS
  • Monitoring: Datadog

If you want to know more about the daily life at folk, the following sections should interest you ๐Ÿ‘€

Sounds like you? Then, we should probably meet ๐Ÿ™ƒ

What are we looking for?

  • an overview of your background (either a resume or a Linkedin profile)
  • a short note to tell us why we're a great fit for each other and how you envision your future @folk

We'll review your application and we''ll get back to you within a week. No matter what our decision is you will hear from us ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Here are some tips for your application.

Here's our hiring process for this role:

  1. A 30min video call with Morgane - Talent Manager to make sure our expectations are aligned.
  2. A 45min video call with Jean-Yves - CTO to deep dive a little bit more into tech, to make sure you're interested in our stack and product, and to check that your skillset and mindset fit for the job.
  3. A 1h call with Jean-Yves - CTO and one member of our engineering team. During this session, we will have a high-level conversation about architecture and product.
  4. 1h technical test, pair programming: we use the test as a base for discussion to figure out how it feels working together and to cover coding skills, architecture and exploration on a new topic.
  5. A 30min video call with folk's cofounders. It's the perfect opportunity for you to ask anything about the company.
  6. (opt) 30 min coffee with team members to get a feel of the work atmosphere
