We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our team! Our Engineering team is small but mighty, building and maintaining the product and platform driving >$10M in annual recurring revenue. We enable (and expect) engineers to take on significant ownership and responsibility, including leading projects and initiatives, working with product managers and customers to define and implement features, and collaborating with our sales and marketing teams on launching and scaling products and features. You’ll have a lot of autonomy and will be most successful if you have high agency and are resilient in the face of challenges.

  • Operate effectively within Truework's technology stack throughout the product life cycle (design, development, delivery, operation & maintenance).
  • Understand the desired outcome of your projects, take ownership of deciding the best way to deliver that outcome, and be accountable for ultimately achieving the outcome. 
  • Collaborate effectively within Engineering, with other EPD functions (product/design) and GTM functions (sales/marketing/support) to solve problems, resolve incidents, deliver products and features, and ultimately satisfy customer needs.
  • Intentionally participate in and engage with our hybrid team (and hopefully have fun while doing so!)
  • Participate in our engineering on-call rotation.

What we’re looking for: 

  • 5+ years of relevant coding experience
  • Professional experience developing substantial Python applications
  • Strong analytical & problem-solving skills
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • Someone with a high agency and proactivity, who’s led projects and solutions
  • Eagerness to work in a sustainably paced, collaborative environment
  • US work authorization. We can support visa transfers/etc. but can’t currently sponsor new visas.

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 Truework’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.
