HockeyStack

Backend Engineer

San Francisco, CA
Full Time
Paid
  • Responsibilities

    ABOUT THE ROLE

    HockeyStack is an analytics and attribution tool for B2B. It collects and helps analyze data from all parts of the SaaS customer journey - marketing, sales, and product engagement. Our vision is to become the revenue operating system for B2B companies.

    Technical Expectations

    As a backend-focused engineer, you will mostly be:

    • Building or updating integrations with third-party data sources (like CRMs and ad networks) using their public API
    • Refactor parts of our backend code for scalability and performance

    It's good to have some or all of:

    • SQL knowledge to update current queries or write new queries for feature support and performance optimization
    • AWS experience to optimize our usage and carry out infrastructure-related tasks

    Our backend is built on Node.js and Express so you need to be very comfortable with JavaScript.

    The gist of this position is how good you are with reading through third-party APIs, handling and transforming large datasets with performance and scalability in mind, as well as the quality of the code you write.

    You might, at times, need to interact with UI components, so a frontend experience or knowledge is definitely a plus.

    Non-technical Expectations

    We aren't looking for someone with 20 years of experience. We are looking for smart people who are up for a challenge.

    • Experience in analytics (either personally used or even built an analytics tool) is a plus.
    • Experience with at least a CRM, a MarTech tool, or a CDP of some kind is a plus.

    This is one of the founding roles of the company. Your ideas will set the course of the whole product, so you should have some context on this industry beforehand.

    This also means that your role within the company is bound to grow and gain importance over time.

    As for your personality & working style, we expect you to:

    • be a generalist — be open to learning, adapting to new environments, and wearing different hats
    • communicate clearly & frequently
    • think user-first
    • have an aptitude for shipping FAST
    • take initiative without waiting for input

    Why HockeyStack?

    We are a young company that is growing really fast. This means you have the opportunity to have a tremendous impact on the company, and have virtually limitless upside. We have the fastest team in our market right now and we want to keep it that way. We are already becoming a market leader in the attribution space, but we need more teammates (aka you) for our more ambitious goals.

    The expected base salary range for this role is $130,000 TO $160,000 PER YEAR, but we are ready to pay the premium for great talent. Individual pay decisions are based on a number of factors, including qualifications for the role, experience level, skillset, and balancing internal equity relative to peers at the company.

    Additional benefits include:

    • 0.5%-1% stock option
    • Joining a startup with some of the brightest minds in the industry
    • Working directly with the founders
    • Company retreats
