Role details
Job description
🌎 About Us At TeamSnap, we believe when the world connects through sports; the world becomes better. TeamSnap is a sports and communication platform dedicated to taking the work out of play in youth sports. We also believe our jobs should excite us, our teammates should support us and our bosses should inspire us. We empower our people to bring big ideas and tiny egos, landing us on Outside Magazine’s list of “Best Places to Work" and Built In’s “100 Best Remote-First Places to Work."
TeamSnap is seeking a Software Engineer (Fullstack) interested in working across the stack to join our engineering team, helping us continue our impressive growth from 2+ million daily active users to beyond! Our stack includes Node, Typescript, and SQL, along with React. While TeamSnap is a remote-first company, this role requires candidates to be located in the greater Los Angeles region to work in-person 3 days a week. This is a unique opportunity to collaborate in-person with local teammates in the R&D organization while continuing to enjoy the flexibility of the hybrid culture. As an engineering team, we build applications that serve millions of users and some of the largest youth and amateur sports organizations in the world. Our team values collaboration in a remote culture, so we regularly participate in pair sessions and virtual team swarms to stay connected.
What You'll Do:
- Build and maintain applications, APIs, and services that scale to support millions of users across our mobile and web applications.
- Work closely with product managers, designers, and engineers to deliver customer-facing features from concept through production.
- Collaborate and pair with teammates to solve problems, share knowledge, and deliver high-quality software.
- Follow and contribute to our engineering best practices, including testing, code review, and maintainable software design.
- Build features across our backend services and React-based web applications.
What Will Set You Up for Success:
- An emerging, high-growth engineer who ships high-quality production software, takes ownership of meaningful product and technical work, learns quickly, and grows through feedback, mentorship, and increasing responsibility.
- Experienced in backend development with Node, Typescript / Javascript; and frontend web development with React or similar.
- Experience with SQL and relational databases such as MySQL / GCP Cloud SQL.
- Hands-on experience developing APIs, services for mobile applications, and web clients at scale.
- Experience working within and towards a distributed system.
Why work at TeamSnap
- Remote‑first culture: TeamSnap has been fully distributed since before the pandemic, with team members across the U.S. Collaboration happens via Slack, Zoom, GitHub, and email. Employees are flown together periodically for in‑person work.
- Autonomy and trust: The company values self‑directed work, respects time (few pointless meetings), and encourages ownership. “We expect you to be self‑directed and able to juggle multiple balls.”
- Customer impact: Everyone talks to customers – it’s in the DNA. Employees are empowered to make decisions that directly improve the user experience.
- Benefits: Unlimited PTO, paid parental leave for all parents, 100% premium coverage of medical/dental/vision for employee and family, $1,500 annual learning and development stipend.
- Engineering culture: Uses modern tools (GitHub, Slack) and is looking for engineers who are “self‑driven, intelligent, collaborative” and passionate about youth sports.
- Not for everyone: If you prefer bureaucracy, free massages, or a big‑company cafeteria, TeamSnap is not a fit. It’s for people who want impact and flexibility. [teamsnap.com/company/careers] [builtin.com]
