At In Tandem, our tech solutions—which include OurFamilyWizard, Cozi, FamilyWall, and Custody Navigator—work in tandem with families to simplify daily life, fostering connection, organization, and peace of mind throughout key stages and milestones of family life.

We believe technology can champion deeper connections within families, strengthen bonds, and improve communication. Our family of brands provide a range of solutions that streamline daily routines, offer resources and guidance during challenging times, and help families navigate those challenges with confidence, calm, and ease.

As a Software Engineer (Backend) supporting OurFamilyWizard, you will directly contribute to features that make everyday life a little bit easier for families on their co-parenting journey. You will be part of a product team, and operate alongside a collaborative group of product managers, designers, QA analysts, automation engineers, and other web and mobile engineers working together to solve meaningful problems for parents, children, and practitioners. We are looking for an individual who is experienced in creating high quality software and has a deep knowledge of Relational Databases, Hibernate, and the Spring Framework. In addition, we value individuals familiar with microservices architecture who are passionate about solving problems.

What you will accomplish:

Getting to know teammates, technology, and tactics.

The first day will be spent partnering with your manager and a teammate to get your local environment set up and fixing a bug. The following 29 days will involve connecting with teammates across OurFamilyWizard and Cozi to gain a high-level understanding of how we prioritize, plan, build, and deliver value to families on our platform. You will build deeper connections with product and platform teammates as you get more immersed in the daily and weekly agile rituals, and the API guild. In these early days, your manager will set up recurring 1:1’s and begin the ongoing discussion of personal and team goals. Technical work will focus on gaining exposure to services within your team’s domain, as well as key areas of the platform beyond team boundaries where ownership is shared. By the end of your first month, you will be acclimated to the operating rhythm and rituals of your product team and gain confidence by taking on increasingly complex tasks.

Try, learn, ship.

By day 60, you will be comfortable operating within our SDLC from planning through production releases. You will have a broad understanding of our backend architecture, and a deeper understanding of the services within your team’s area of ownership and the API’s that power our client experiences. Through weekly work that presents complex and varied challenges, you will continue becoming familiar with processes, patterns, and best practices. By releasing regularly, you will have an impact on end users.

Solidifying the foundation.

Beyond the first couple of months, you will grow into an autonomous operator, capable of partnering with API teammates to architect solutions to complex problems that are consistent with our existing patterns and best practices. You will partner with cross-functional engineering teammates, as well as your product manager, designer, and engineering manager to help build execution plans to deliver new features that support our product and business strategy.

Accelerate growth.

Beyond the first 90 days you’ll partner with your engineering manager and backend teammates to continue to develop a foundational understanding of platform architecture, design patterns, and best practices. You will have opportunities to inform and affect change at the platform level to further your ownership, impact, and growth. Through partnership with product and design you will be empowered to influence strategy and end-user experience and impact. Complex product problems, and technical challenges related to scale and modernization will continue to keep you challenged, learning, and growing as an engineer.

Who you are:

  • Confident craftsperson. You have the tools you need to solve most problems, are comfortable speaking to multiple approaches, and have an opinion on the best approach given the constraints.
  • Scientific artist, artistic scientist. You understand that software is necessarily complex, and are capable of driving clarity in the face of complexity while valuing simplicity as the ultimate sophistication.
  • Curious operator. You value the variance in challenges a cross-functional team encounters and embrace unexpected hurdles with a mindset that seeks to understand the landscape before charting a course towards a solution.
  • Pragmatic optimizer. You identify when something’s harder than it should be, articulate why change is needed, and affect change through incremental improvements towards an audacious end goal.
  • Champion of Inclusion. You want everyone on the team to have a voice and are open and eager to hear everyone's thoughts, helping to guide the team to good solutions.
  • Low ego, high integrity. You value doing what’s right over being right. You pivot when a better path forward arises in order to meet technical and business needs and are comfortable saying something when a course correction is needed.

What you bring:

  • 3+ years of Java development experience
  • Analytical mindset and good problem-solving skills.
  • Experience in the Spring Framework
  • Proven experience delivering software applications/features from inception to shipping within a cross-functional team environment.
  • Object Oriented analysis and design using common design patterns.
  • Excellent knowledge of Relational Databases and ORM technologies (Spring Boot, Hibernate)

What would be great to have:

  • Experience with Kotlin
  • Experience with Docker
  • Experience with Kubernetes
  • Experience with Atlassian products for CI/CD (Bamboo, Bitbucket)
  • Experience with Confluent Cloud (Kafka)
  • Experience with writing and maintaining tests
  • Experience with iterative, agile based software delivery processes.
  • Experience in legal technology or legal profession in some way
