Responsibilities
Develop the core payment surfaces and backend systems on Substack.
Own your work and deliver high-quality solutions from product concept and proposal to implementation, experimentation, and measurement.
We work with TypeScript, especially Node/Express and React, and Postgres. It’s helpful if you know these technologies already; if not, we’ll be excited to help you learn.
We also work with payment processors, including Stripe. Again, experience here is beneficial but not required.
Requirements
3+ years of software engineering experience, including building and shipping web applications.
Independent and autonomous. Strong product sense and intuition.
Passionate about building a better business model for the internet.
Substack's compensation package includes a market competitive salary, equity for all full time roles, and exceptional benefits. Our cash compensation salary range for this role is $140,000 - $260,000. Final offer amounts are determined by multiple factors including candidate experience and expertise and may vary from the amounts listed above.
Substack is an equal opportunity employer. All applicants will be considered for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender identity or transgender status), age, national origin, veteran or disability status.
