Assignar Hiring for Senior Full Stack Engineer Job at Sydney, Australia Full Time

About Assignar

We’re a mission-led cloud-based construction tech startup. Sean McCreanor (co-founder and CEO) started Assignar in 2014 after experiencing the painful lack of offerings available to him as a contractor to run his own business operations. Cut to present and Assignar works with hundreds of customers, ranging from multinational, multi-billion-dollar companies to specialist contractors.

We’ve found product-market fit: Assignar is an all-in-one platform, now leading the way in digital construction operations built for contractors. We enable teams to have real-time visibility on jobsites to successfully schedule the right workers to the right projects, track equipment efficiently, and make well-informed, data-driven decisions for future projects.

We’re well funded. In 2021, we raised a $20 million Series B funding round. Investor demand was so high that in late 2021, we raised a $16.5 million secondary round. Our investors include Fifth Wall, Tola Capital, Ironspring Capital, OIF Ventures, Tiger Global, HighSage Ventures, and SecondQuarter Ventures.

About our Engineering Culture:

• The best ideas win – no matter who or where they may come from.
• Problems not solutions – engineers focus on solving problems, not building solutions handed to them. No one wants to be a code-monkey.
• Move fast and iterate – we strive for continuous deployment enabled by healthy testing, monitoring, and feature flagging. Quick progress is better than waiting for perfect because you don’t know what perfect is.
• Strong opinions, loosely held – we’re all passionate but open-minded, both are essential to building a successful and talented team.
• Shipping is just the beginning – Are customers using the feature? Do we see a lift in metrics? Was our hypothesis right? It’s not just about writing code or deploying features, it’s about making an impact.
