About TaskRabbit

At TaskRabbit, we want to make your neighborhood a little more familiar. Whether it’s a handyman (or woman!), a housecleaner, moving help or delivery person, we’re imagining a world where everyone will have a go-to team to make everyday life easier.

As a pioneer of the sharing economy, TaskRabbit was founded on the premise of neighbors helping neighbors. Since then, our network has grown to three countries and 45+ cities, yet our core mission of creating a better everyday life for everyday people has remained the same.

Together with IKEA, we’re creating more opportunities for people to earn a consistent, meaningful income on their own terms by building lasting relationships with clients in communities around the world.

We are a group of mission-minded people. Our culture is collaborative, pragmatic, and fast-paced. We’re looking for talented, entrepreneurially-minded and data-driven people who also have a passion for helping people do what they love - and have a ton of fun while they’re at it.

About the Job

As a senior software engineer (fullstack) on TaskRabbit’s engineering team, you’ll get to build features and improvements for our web platform. You’ll be one of the leaders of the team, helping to mentor more junior engineers, proposing creative solutions, de-tangling the complex into the simple, and collaborating closely with teammates across product and engineering.

Our engineering team uses React.js on the web frontend, React Native for our mobile applications, and Ruby on Rails on the backend. We’re looking for people who are comfortable and interested in working with a little bit of everything.

Join us in creating a better everyday life for everyday people.

Responsibilities:

- Build out software features to support clients, taskers, and internal users

- Architect and craft solutions to complex problems

- Collaborate with design and product management to conceptualize new product features from the ground up

- Work alongside more junior software engineers to help them think through designs, code implementation, and how to break down their goals into actionable steps

- Participate in code reviews, listening to feedback and commenting on other's approaches

- Maintain and expand upon existing code and functionality

Qualifications:

- 5+ years of experience developing web applications

- You're comfortable with Ruby and Rails, Javascript, and React.js (React Native is a plus)

- You have built API-driven applications or endpoints

- You're excited about continuous integration and frequent, daily releases

- Understand how to organize code across the stack, what belongs in the front end, what the back

- Know how to break problems down into smaller iterable steps achievable quickly

- Be comfortable with caching and understanding full lifecycle behavior of data flowing through the system

- You are comfortable with an Agile work environment where you’ll be collaborating regularly with Product, Design, Data, QA, and other developers regularly

You’ll love working here because:

  • The People. You will be surrounded by some of the most talented, supportive, smart, and kind leaders and teams -- people you can be proud to work with!
     
  • The Values. 
    • Care Deeply. We take time to be present and partner with our team and communities.

Company Overview:

TaskRabbit is a marketplace platform that conveniently connects people with Taskers to handle everyday home to-do’s, such as furniture assembly, handyman work, moving help, and much more. Acquired by IKEA Group - the world’s largest furniture retailer - in 2017, TaskRabbit operates now in seven countries and is expanding its global reach rapidly. As a pioneer of the sharing economy, TaskRabbit was founded in 2008 on the premise of neighbors helping neighbors. Since then, our network has grown to the UK, Canada, France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, and Italy, yet our core mission has remained the same. We want to make everyday life easier for everyday people. And by doing that, we can make your neighborhood a little more familiar.

In 2017, TaskRabbit launched TaskRabbit for Good (TR4G), which connects neighbors to build sustainable and compassionate communities. TaskRabbit for Good was created to make it easier for neighbors to give back locally and make a positive impact in communities around the world. TaskRabbit donates a portion of its service fee from all TR4G initiatives to best-in-class local non-profit organizations tackling social and environmental challenges. TaskRabbit’s headquarters is located in the heart of San Francisco, with two other offices in Austin, and London, though we are moving to a hub environment where employees will have the option of working from home or in offices.

We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, ancestry, citizenship, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, marital status, military/veteran status, or disability status.
