About the job

About Us

Sparrow is a pioneering high-tech, high-touch solution for managing employee leave. Our mission is to simplify the leave process for companies, enabling them to support their employees through various types of leave, including family and medical leave.

The traditional leave management process can be cumbersome and overwhelming. Company leaders face constant challenges in keeping up with evolving regulations, while employees navigating their leave often encounter unnecessary bureaucracy at a critical time in their careers. At Sparrow, we streamline this typically tedious and error-prone process into an efficient 30-minute experience, saving our clients significant time (20-40 hours per leave) and potential costs (up to $30,000 per leave).

Headquartered in San Francisco, we are a diverse team with remote employees across the nation. We pride ourselves on being a collaborative, talented, and supportive workforce, dedicated to solving real-world problems.

About the Role

As we expand rapidly, we seek product-focused full-stack software engineers to join our dynamic engineering team. In this role, you will:

  • Collaborate closely with engineering and cross-functional teams (sales, operations) to define, scope, and develop the engineering roadmap.
  • Design and implement new features and products that enhance the experience for both employees and employers.
  • Utilize software to optimize internal processes, enabling more efficient scaling.
  • Invest in engineering health and processes, ensuring sustainable and secure development practices.
  • Mentor and support fellow engineers on the team.

About You

We are looking for candidates who possess:

  • 5+ years of experience as a software engineer.
  • The ability to collaborate effectively with both engineers and non-technical teams.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • A knack for simplifying complex domains into manageable components.
  • Familiarity with modern software tools and processes (git, CI/CD, testing, deployment, cloud services, etc.).
  • Experience with our technical stack (Django, React, Python, JS, Postgres, Heroku) is a plus, but not mandatory.

Above all, we seek individuals who are passionate about leveraging technology to address challenging problems, who enjoy crafting beautiful and functional products, and who resonate with our mission. If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you!
