Hi I’m Abhik, Ashby's Co-Founder and VP of Engineering. We’re looking for a versatile, persistent product engineer who’s not afraid to set up reusable building blocks across the stack and advocate for the time and space to do so. At Ashby, all our engineers ship features end-to-end at a high pace. Example is the best leadership. We’ll give you the room to do your best work, and you'll be our guide! If that speaks to you, read on.
What Ashby gives you in return is the best of both early and growth-stage environments. The agency and no-nonsense of a seed startup: you write product specs, make product and design decisions, and build in an almost-no-meeting culture. While also the product-market fit and scale of a growth-stage startup: 100,000+ weekly active users who depend on your software and eagerly await your next feature. We have notable customers like Notion, Linear, Shopify, and Snowflake. Our growth and retention metrics are best-in-class among our peers: we have tens of millions in ARR, growing >100% year over year, very low churn, and many years of runway.
About The Role And How We Work: Our engineering culture strives to recreate the environments where we did our best work as ICs – where we had the ownership and agency to impact our users with creative and innovative software. As a Product Engineer, you’ll take ownership over a large portion of one of our products and own projects end-to-end (wearing hats traditionally worn by product and design). You’ll research competitors, write product specs, make wireframes, and more.
To ground it with examples, product engineers at Ashby have:
- Designed and built automated interview scheduling, solving the “Calendar Tetris” problem.
- Built a generalized declarative filter architecture that allows users to create complex filters for any record with a consistent UI.
- Specced, designed, and implemented a feature that allows users to complete signing offers entirely within Ashby.
What We’re Building: As engineers, we are used to tooling that makes us better at what we do. When we started Ashby, we saw the opposite with Talent Acquisition (TA) software. Recruiting teams wanted to schedule candidates faster, track interviewer preparation and quality, and do it with half the headcount. As hiring managers, we know TA is a critical function, and as engineers, we know software can do better. So, we built and continue to build Ashby to give TA teams the highest standard of tooling.
Why You Should or Shouldn’t Apply: Software Engineers Come In Many Flavors, Not All Of Which Fit Our Model. Here Are Some Things To Help You Decide If This Fits You And What You’re Looking For:
- You’re not afraid to tackle any part of a technology stack.
- You’ve tackled projects with a lot of product and technical ambiguity.
- You know how to strike the right balance between speed and quality.
- You are ambitious and always looking to improve your skills.
- You’re an excellent collaborator and communicator.
- You seek to create leverage in your work.
