Software Engineer, Full Stack Developer

Laurel is on a mission to return time. As the leading AI Time platform for professional services firms, we’re transforming how organizations capture, analyze, and optimize their most valuable resource: time. Our proprietary machine learning technology automates work time capture and connects time data to business outcomes, enabling firms to increase profitability, improve client delivery, and make data-driven strategic decisions. We serve many of the world's largest accounting and law firms, including EY, Aprio, Crowell & Moring, and Frost Brown Todd, and process over 1 billion work activities annually that have never been collected and aggregated before Laurel’s AI Time platform.

Our team comprises top talent in AI, product development, and engineering—innovative, humble, and forward-thinking professionals committed to redefining productivity in the knowledge economy. We're building solutions that empower workers to deliver twice the value in half the time, giving people more time to be creative and impactful. If you're passionate about transforming how people work and building a lasting company that explores the essence of time itself, we'd love to meet you.

We are looking for a highly experienced Software Engineer to join our team. You’ll have a direct impact on engineering practices throughout the stack (front/back) and are expected to raise the bar for the engineers around you. As a Software Engineer, you will work on a charter to solve high-level business challenges with a collaborative, cross-functional team. Your curiosity will serve you well in asking the right questions to understand the customer problems we're solving.

Your ability to learn quickly, write, and design quality software will serve you well in delivering value to our customers incrementally. Ownership comes from the ground up, we empower our teams to understand and make an impact on the business.

AI will fundamentally change the nature of work and how we think about work. As a Software Engineer at Laurel, you’ll have the capacity to understand and impact the experiences of our customers, standing at the forefront of the mission to return time to our customers.

Laurel is at a pivot point. We've built a product that people like, and have a direction that people love, but it hasn't been done yet.

• Architect and Develop:
  Design, build, and maintain efficient, reusable, and extremely reliable code across both frontend and backend components of our applications

• Identify bottlenecks and bugs, and devise solutions to mitigate and address these issues. Continuously improve the performance, scalability, and security of our applications

• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior developers, fostering a culture of learning and growth within the team

• Implement automated testing and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines to ensure robust and reliable software releases

• Work with Product and Customer Success teams to flesh out business requirements and designs for those requirements and systems

• We want you not just to build but to engage with our product and our users. Your input and opinion will be highly valuable and it is expected that you have many thoughts on how things should be done and why.

You will work on a “pod” with various other engineering disciplines. Each pod is assigned an area of focus related to customer needs and our product offering. Pods typically have 4-7 members.

Your work is not silo’d to the pod, however. You are expected to work with all engineers at the company in some capacity, as needed. Good communication skills are essential.
