Software Engineer (Full Stack)

The Company Ready to change the world? Here at HazAdapt, we are revolutionizing how people adapt to hazards. From everyday emergencies to catastrophes, our suite of cutting-edge technologies help individuals, households, and communities prepare, stay safe, and recover.

The Role We’re looking for full-stack engineers to work on different parts of the public-facing safety app, HazAdapt, the connected Emergency Manager engagement portal, ResiliencePoint, and the supporting backend services in between. Together, they create an engagement layer between the public and emergency managers to interact with, customize, and share emergency safety information with their families and community members safely.

The pace is intentional and progressive, with a higher priority on quality rather than speed. We are a startup, and teammates are given the opportunity to wear multiple hats if they are interested. Our development team is working with React Native in an Expo environment for our mobile app, and React and Material UI for our web applications. You should be very comfortable using JavaScript/TypeScript and React. It’s a major plus to also have experience using a mobile JS framework like React Native to build complicated mobile UIs. We support learning on the job, and expect our team members to adapt quickly to the environment.

Here are a couple of examples of what you might be working on:

Adding more engaging gamification logic and features into the preparedness training tools.

Expanding the insights and capabilities of the data dashboard.

Building tools that help communities come together before, during, and after a disaster.

The intelligence, skills, and perspective you bring as a human are extremely valuable to us. As is your wellbeing and mental health. You will not be required to use AI to accomplish your responsibilities while working at HazAdapt.

Compensation All positions at HazAdapt are currently equity-based. We are an early-stage startup working toward monetary compensation in the future, and team members will receive priority consideration for paid roles as HazAdapt grows.

Who We Are Looking For Required

At least 1-2 years of experience building web applications in React.

At least 1 year of experience building React Native mobile applications.

At least 1-2 years of experience building modular backend services and APIs in JavaScript/TypeScript and Node, Express, or a similar framework.

Experience writing complex unit and integration tests using Jest or a similar testing library.

A hunger for growth, curiosity, and drive to build a revolutionary product is key.

We put a lot of trust in our team, and that comes with some big responsibilities.

Strong communication skills will be crucial here, especially now that we are remote, and we expect that you are capable of being open when it comes to work.

Amazing work > years of experience > degrees

We know incredible experience comes in many forms. We focus most on amazing, thoughtful work, not just in any one portion of the stack, but across the whole tech range and beyond.

Pluses

Experience shipping mobile applications to production environments, including the App Store and/or Google Play Store, is a huge plus.

Experience building mobile applications using Expo SDK.

Experience in information communication technology (ICT) or emergency mass notification technology.

An understanding of the principles of accessibility and the ability and eagerness to build products that are accessible to users with different abilities.

Experience implementing UI components using Atomic Design principles

There are huge kudos to be had if you have experience building inclusive products and working on A11Y accessibility standards.
