About WorkWhile

The labor platform that connects the best hourly workers to shifts that fit their skills, schedules, and location.

We’re building a marketplace that makes it magically easy for operationally-intensive businesses to build, scale and manage their teams while providing workers with stable income and unmatched benefits.

With a small team, we’ve grown extremely fast and earned the trust of both workers and businesses that range from startups to Fortune 500s. We see ourselves as a scrappy upstart and delight in outcompeting larger incumbents. Our ambition is that when we succeed, our impact will be measured in GDP growth – that’s the scale.

WorkWhile has a diverse, mission-driven, and supportive culture—we look for people who want to take ownership, are energized by ambiguity, and strive to make a lasting impact. If this resonates with you, we’d love to chat!

WorkWhile is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Women, minorities, individuals with disabilities and protected veterans are encouraged to apply.

About the Job

What you’ll do

  • Collaborate with founders, sales, design and other engineers to solve problems for our users – workers and businesses.
  • Build new user-facing features – including everything from database models to APIs and UI components
  • Contribute to platform, infra and cultural foundations for the company as it continues its explosive growth.

What we’re looking for

  • Deep knowledge and strong fundamentals in either Frontend (JavaScript, React/React Native) or Backend (Python), with at least familiarity in both.
  • Self-sufficiency: pick a problem and drive results
  • Curious to “go to ground” to understand our users and challenge assumptions
  • Demonstrated initiative to up-skill oneself
  • Clear verbal and written communication

Engineering Team

We’re a small and mighty team with senior engineers from Airbnb, Amazon, Google, Lyft among others.

  • We value user-centricity, competence, speed, and having fun.
  • We’ve been happily remote for the past 4 years.
  • We embrace independence and take ownership of our projects, yet are also great team players.
  • We deal in outcomes, not projects.
