Full Stack Engineer

Welcome!

Visible is on a mission to help startup founders succeed. We’re achieving this by building best-in‑class tools for startups and the venture capital investors who back them.

Visible is a profitable, established software startup made up of 15 fully remote teammates across the globe and has been set up this way since Visible was founded in 2015 (we have this whole remote work thing down).

We are looking for a full‑stack, mid‑to‑senior‑level engineer to join our small engineering team and help scale our product to support our next stage of growth. Here is what to expect:

Our stack includes a Ruby on Rails API, Postgre

SQL, Redis and Ember.js. We deploy to Heroku and Vercel and use Docker for local development. We have many different challenges that range from implementing product features to Dev Ops‑type work and performance optimization. Other notable tools & frameworks you will be working with include Tailwind CSS, AWS, Mobiledoc, and a lot of 3rd party APIs.

We favor full‑stack engineers whohave a good understanding of the entire scope of an application, but you don’t need to know both Rails and Ember to apply (however, for this position experience with one of the js frameworks is preferred and Ember experience is a big bonus).

You will work closely with our engineering team, product designer,and CEO, helping guide product direction and execution. Some things you might find yourself working on in the first couple of months:

• Participate in a cycle where you are actively pitching, shaping, and building product features.

• Build new and improve existing integrations.

• Help rebuild our marketing website.

• Pair with other engineers on the team and our product designer, participate in engineering calls (we do weekly mob programming sessions).

We empower our people. As long as it is aligned with the company vision, everyone has a lot of liberty in choosing what to work on. We have a combined approach, both data‑driven and user‑driven. We work hard to create a culture where people ask questions and challenge what is being worked on.

Given that we are distributed, we end up working across multiple time zones and put an emphasis on being able to work asynchronously.

• We document everything we do in Notion, Slack, and Git Hub.

• We use Slack for daily lightweight stand‑ups.

• We meet virtually as a team 3x per week. This typically includes an all‑hands, product standup, and a fun wild card day (we often play codenames or jackbox.tv).

• Offsites throughout the year for fun and strategic planning.

We have adopted a modified version of the "Shape Up" process that fits our business and workflow. It allows us to build a high‑quality product, take time to cool down, and not have to worry about looking at roadmaps that will change in the next six weeks anyway.

We have a full‑time product designer, but everyone on the team is capable of producing shippable UIs and we really value a good sense of aesthetics.

We care more about quality than quantity. We spend time reducing our code and product debt. We pair whenever it is needed, we test our code, and we code review every line that goes in production. It is a great way to ensure quality and learn from each other.

The following are all guide rails. Don’t feel like you need to neatly check each box. If you love the role, we’d love to hear from you.

• You have at least 2 years of production experience with Rails/Ruby and/or Ember

• You are comfortable working with multiple levels of the stack (JS, backend, database)

• You want to be part of a small, growth‑minded team

• You care about writing clear, well‑tested, maintainable code

Bonus points if you

• Worked on Ember projects before (and enjoyed it)

• Have experience working with 3rd‑party APIs, designing RESTful APIs

• Have experience or interest in Dev Ops

• Have previous experience building a startup product for scale
