What is SeekOut?  

SeekOut helps thousands of organizations hire, grow, and retain great talent with its people-first talent optimization platform and proven expertise in diverse and hard-to-find talent. In our digital age, organizations are overflowing with data—yet few deeply understand their employees because people data is siloed and disconnected. Your people are the real difference makers—and once you know their passions, experiences, and the opportunities that will get them to where they want to go, you can better align their skills, capabilities, and career paths to the needs of the business. SeekOut unifies talent acquisition, talent management, and talent analytics to help you grow the people you have and find the people you need. Six of the top 10 most valuable companies in the United States trust SeekOut as their single platform for managing and recruiting talent.   

SeekOut is recognized on Forbes’ list of America’s Best Startup Employers, Deloitte’s Fast 500, and the Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing companies. In 2021, SeekOut was crowned GeekWire Startup of the Year. Founded in 2017, SeekOut has raised $189 million in funding from leading investors like Tiger Global Management, Madrona Venture Group, Mayfield, and Founders Circle Capital.

What are we looking to add to our team?    

As a senior engineer, you will be taking responsibility for services and broad feature categories contributing to multiple products to advance the success of our products. You will have ample opportunity to drive design, technologies, and features to bring a better experience to our customers, and you will be creating and defining the path for an early-stage product that still needs a great deal of innovation.

 What you will be doing: 

  • Senior engineers in a startup environment get the chance to convert broader visions into workable actions and drive features to completion, working in concert with product, UI designers, and various other teams that may provide APIs upon which their service or features will depend.
  • Our senior engineers become subject matter experts who then provide guidance to others in their team and across the company, and our environment is so dynamic that the entire engineering organization works together to provide a stronger product experience across the company.

You will be a great match if you have: 

  • The equivalent of 5 years of Software Engineering experience across multiple complete software development lifecycles
  • At least 3 years of experience working with JavaScript and modern frameworks such as React or Vue
  • Experience working with NodeJS and with databases, either noSQL or SQL
  • Experience building production infrastructure with Azure, Amazon Web Services (AWS), or Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
  • Familiarity with durable entities would be a bonus
  • Familiarity with AWS lambda, AWS Step Lambdas, or Azure functions would be a plus
  • Experience designing and building APIs for highly scalable, high availability architectures
  • Experience with object-oriented programming in a production environment
  • Bachelors or Masters’ degree in Computer Science

Our Dedication to a Diverse Workforce: 

SeekOut condemns discrimination, racism, and racial injustice in all forms. Committed to attracting and retaining a diverse staff, SeekOut will honor your experiences, perspectives, and unique identity. Together, we strive to create and maintain working and learning environments that are inclusive, equitable and welcoming.

  • Focused on customer success and delight.

Voluntary Self-Identification

For government reporting purposes, we ask candidates to respond to the below self-identification survey. Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

As set forth in SeekOut’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
