UserVoice Job Posting

Senior Software Engineer

Remote

UserVoice is seeking a full-stack Senior Software Engineer to join our dynamic team and work on our flagship product feedback platform, UserVoice Discovery. This fully remote position is open to candidates anywhere in the United States.

This is a full-stack position, but has a front-end focus, specifically with expertise in React. We expect candidates to be able to navigate both server-side and front-end code. While fine-tuning a complex SQL query for that last bit of performance might not be your specialty, it's important that you could handle a simple task like adding a parameter to a REST API.

At UserVoice, our engineering team stands out. Engineers at UserVoice work closely with our product and customer-facing teams not only to build, but define the solutions that will best solve our customer's problems. We value genuine impact over arbitrary metrics. Success is measured by how our customers react to our innovations.

About You

  • Experience: 4+ years of professional web development experience, with a good mix of front-end and back-end skills, and significant expertise in React. Ideal candidates have worked on a high utilization SaaS product.

  • Self-sufficient: You're proactive about overcoming obstacles and have strong, well-reasoned opinions about our work
  • Proactive Communication: You confidently voice your ideas on engineering, product development, and company operations, even if they challenge the status quo
