Job Description
Organise is striving to build a team that reflects the diversity of our community and is truly inclusive. We welcome applications from under-represented groups, particularly people of colour, trans and non-binary people, new parents, and disabled people.
đ« Who we are
Organise is a fast-growing startup on a mission to give everyone the tools, network and confidence to improve their life at work. Our vision is for a world in which decent, fairly paid work is available and accessible to all, and where all of us are treated with dignity and respect at work.
More than 1 million people are already using Organise. We put power in peopleâs hands, building a progressive force for change inside companies.
The Organise staff team pride ourselves on nimble, focused workplace campaigns. That means our team is decisive, ambitious and happy to take risks. Weâre characterised by our energy and enthusiasm; weâd rather aim high and see what happens, than play it safe. Weâre passionate about putting Organise members first â we believe change at work happens when more people get involved.
We're expanding our team and building out our platform to include a peer-to-peer network. We're building a space for people to build power and support each other at work pseudonymously. A space for our core members to talk to each other in a space their boss can't see. Small monthly subscriptions from members will verify their identity. The Organise network is paid for and protected by the workers. We currently operate in the UK, and are aiming to launch in the US by 2022.
"I can't believe it! It's only been a week since I started my Organise campaign to stamp out harassment in gyms. And already, the CEOs of Pure Gym and The Gym Group want to talk about how they can make their gyms safer." Organise member, April 2021
đ About the role and our team
Weâre a team who:
Are passionate about making high quality digital products that give our users power to improve their lives at work
Can collaborate effectively, inspire other team members, and start from a position of empathy
Understand the business and social mission of Organise, and work with the broader team to prioritise ideas and features that will deliver for our users
Are comfortable working in an early-stage environment, and the uncertainty (fun!) that change can bring. We get the right balance between thoroughly-tested code, and getting things done
Weâre looking to scale our engineering team to build out our network product, on an infrastructure that's fit to scale with us.
We have a great starting point: hundreds of thousands of active users that love the Organise product, a straightforward deployment process, and a big focus on great user experience. We have plans to ensure scalability while we grow as a team - pairing as much as we can, an agile approach to product development and dedicated time to evaluate and improve our processes.
We build most of our software in Ruby (mostly Rails) and React, use Postgres hosted on AWS RDS for our databases, and use Heroku to host most of our web applications.
As Lead Engineer you will:
Play a leading role shaping the culture and developer experience of the engineering team - building a team that has a deep commitment to delivering products that empower our users and improve working life for everyone
Work closely with our CTO and CEO to set priorities and direction for our product and infrastructure. You'll play a scrum master role for development of our network product - inspiring and setting clear direction for team members
Get to know (and work on) the entire product and infrastructure - you'll spend time with our campaign coaches and Organise users to see our product in action. You'll get into the detail of how our tech empowers members to improve their lives at work, and you'll feed ideas from the whole team into our tech strategy
Work directly with our backend engineers to improve our infrastructure, so that we're ready to scale globally for millions of users
Support, coach and develop engineers to thrive in their roles through regular 121s, feedback and team retrospectives
đȘ You should apply if
What we're building at Organise excites you!
You have experience managing and developing software engineers and building collaborative, caring, and high performing teams
You have experience with Ruby on Rails and React
You are curious and passionate about solving problems and building products that empower millions of users
You enjoy thinking about data and architecture, and can demonstrate an understanding of good database design
You have experience leading product development in a scrum/agile environment
You have experience setting priorities at a high level - bringing together long-term infrastructure goals and product design
You have experience working with legacy codebases
You are able to communicate effectively and work well with a diverse range of non-technical colleagues
You are open-minded and willing to learn new approaches to your role and our culture
đ„ł You'll benefit from:
Equity in the business
Wellbeing benefit and access to mental health support with Spill
Remote working budget
Learning & development budget + progression support
Involved in other aspects of the business, from strategy, management and training, to shaping team culture
Being part of something that's both commercially successful and socially important
đ„ Some highlights from 2021
Using Organise, Amazon drivers landed national media coverage, including an exclusive BBC Newsnight investigation, exposing their working conditions & calling on Amazon CEO to lower their parcel targets back to a safe level. Theyâve also met directly with MPs and got the Amazon CEO grilled in front of Parliament. 40% of drivers have had their targets lowered to a safer level now as a result - a huge win for their collective action.
Over 100,000 members pressured the government to abandon their plans to scrap the laws protecting paid holidays and rest breaks (working time directive) - including sending tens of thousands of messages sent directly to the Business Secretary in the 24 hours leading up to the U-turn. Civil servants tell us (off the record) that the department were âastonishedâ by the level of public backlash to the plans.
Dan*, a Census worker, started a campaign when he noticed Census temporary workers were being asked to travel to attend their first-day induction without being offered to have their travel expenses covered. In response to thousands of people joining the campaign, ONS has agreed to make sure all temporary workers are reimbursed for their travel expenses. With this and the update to the Census Jobs FAQs page clarifying the expenses policy, Census workers can start their jobs without being out of pocket.

Job Description
Stuart (DPD Group) is a sustainable đ± last-mile logistics company that connects retailers and e-merchants to a fleet of geolocalised couriers across several countries in Europe.
Our Mission đ
We are an impact-driven company that aims to build the future of logistics for a more sustainable world: shared, efficient and reliable. We are committed to creating a new standard for urban deliveries that meet todayâs environmental and social challenges while offering a premium delivery experience blending speed, flexibility and convenience.
Our motto: âMake every delivery a moment all of us can truly celebrate!â More than 3000+ leading brands already partner with us across Restaurants, Grocery, Retail & Luxury, eCommerce and Professional Services to deliver all types of goods at the tap of a button. Stuart is a highly diverse and inclusive company of 700+ employees with 90+ nationalities working across France đ«đ·, Italy đźđč, Poland đ”đ±, Portugal đ”đč, Spain đȘđž and the U.K. đŹđ§
Itâs the right moment and the right place for us to make an impact on millions of people, as home delivery services hit a record high. And guess what? You can help us fulfil our vision đ
Letâs talk about Software Engineering đ
We are looking for a Platform Engineer đ€ to work in our new developer experience department in the deployment team.
We want to build an amazing Internal Developer Platform. In order to achieve that goal, we want to give time and space to a group of people that are very passionate about how an elite software development team works and wants to help to optimize our teamâs workflow.
We want all teams to be able to self-service their needs without the need to put a ticket on any board when they need something.
We want to treat our developer platform as a product. We want to iterate it step by step making the lives of the rest of the developers in the company easier so they can focus on the business needs.
This team will be a mix of putting together existing open source solutions and building our own. We use things like Kubernetes, ArgoCD, or Crossplane to set the foundations for the rest of our teams.
You will decide how our services will be configured and, following the âautomate all the thingsâ mantra, we expect you to automate these decisions so that they are easy to follow by the rest of the engineering team.
If we had to play the buzzword bingo weâd say:
- Solid knowledge of a programming language. It would be great if it was Go
- Microservices: Orchestration, build pipelines, test pipelines
- Kubernetes and tools to create abstractions on top of it. KuveVela, Crossplane
- ArgoCD
In this team you will become an expert in these technologies and you will be able to provide abstractions so that the rest of the engineering team does not have to.
You will be assigned to an onboarding buddy who will help you make yourself at home at Stuart. You will start meeting people from all departments to learn more about what we do and start to understand the general principles that are driving our architecture.
You should get in touch with how we are deploying our software today and where we want to go in the future.You will be paired with some teammates to start delivering your first code.
In three monthsâŠ
You should start to understand the different processes that happen across our company within the other teams.
You should already be part of the deployment teamâs vision. You should be participating in your teamâs ceremonies. Each team has its own working agreements, as long as they are aligned within the company. Currently, your team is working according to the Kanban philosophy with periodic retrospectives.
In six monthsâŠ
As you begin to understand the department's long term vision you should start participating in some design discussions and even the recruitment of the team.
You should already know some of our engineers so you can engage in discussions with them to find out their pain points in terms of our pipeline building and help them solve them.
What do we need from you? đ
Other than technical skills we are looking for a person that is able to create a good experience for other engineers.
Empathic with other engineersâ pain points.
Able to have a discussion respecting the other person.
Willing to learn new technologies that force you out of your comfort zone. We deploy software built-in many programming languages, using many frameworks and with very heterogeneous requirements, which can sometimes be a challenge.
A good communicator since we will have to design and communicate processes to other engineers.
At Stuart, we believe that employees today want to evolve in collaborative, high-growth environments where they can demonstrate their abilities and thrive both professionally and personally. We are convinced that employees need to find alignment between their inner values and their companyâs culture and mission to unlock their full potential. We work to create a culture of empowerment, continuous learning and growth where everyone can bring expertise, own projects and easily measure their impact đ
Stuart is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace dedicated to promoting diversity. We donât discriminate on the basis of race, religion, colour, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status or disability status đ
Please note: Our Talent Acquisition Team is international coming from across the world đ We kindly ask you to please submit your CV and application in English so that it can be reviewed correctly (unless the job posting is in a language other than English). Thank you đ€
If youâre looking to work in a collaborative culture, solving engineering challenges at a global scale, and having a real impact in making our products better for our customers, we would love to talk to you!
We believe in providing trust and autonomy so everyone can do their best work. From how we work to how managers support you, our goal is to provide an environment that enables you to continuously grow, ask questions and not be afraid to failâbecause when we do, we see it as an opportunity to learn.

Backend Engineer Resin London, United Kingdom / Remote $53,000 to $58,000 a year
August 2018
2 Applicants This Week
More Than 6 Months Old
Job Description
Resin.io provides a software platform that helps developers build, deploy and manage code on connected devices. We brought Docker to embedded GNU/Linux devices in 2013 and have been building our IoT toolkit ever since. We also maintain a variety of successful open source projects including Etcher, Balena, and resinOS, and made contributions to high-exposure projects such as Docker, Electron, and AppImage.
Our technology is open, standards-based, and proven in production across a wide range of scenarios from drones, 3D printers, point-of-sale devices, tidal turbines, skyscrapers and more. Our investors include DFJ, Aspect Ventures, GE, and Ericsson.
Resin is a highly distributed, remote-friendly company with a pretty much flat hierarchy. Our organization is adaptive, getting feedback signals from our users and systems. Right now we organize ourselves by projects, which allow us to build complex features and solve big problems, while staying mutable. As a distributed group, we rely on clear communication and the rule of "assume positive intent" to help us work together across time zones, cultures and first languages. Our base of operations is nominally London, though really we are living all over the world: from Barcelona to Bulgaria, Argentina to Vietnam, and many more.
On being a Backend Engineer at resin.io
We maintain a service infrastructure for IoT devices, and this is where we have quite a bit of our engineering talent. You will be actively working on one or more of these core components, fixing bugs, solving complex technical problems, and implementing user-facing features across the resin.io stack. While resin.io focuses on IoT, the majority of our engineers don't require embedded programming expertise.
People who are successful engineers are well-rounded generalists and great communicators. They are eager to take responsibility for a project, and are able to make good decisions about the project because they have the context of what's important.
We don't require engineers to be already familiar with the technologies we use. We are happy to invest in people that showcase a strong understanding of the challenges of building secure distributed systems.
Responsibilities
Actively invest back in our own technology, libraries, and frameworks
Understand security best practices and strive to apply them in your work
Be highly motivated to produce great code
Evaluate customer requirements and other inputs to determine the scope and timing of new functionality
Design, architect, and own the execution of your projects
Ensure the architecture of our distributed system remains cohesive
Collaborate, brainstorm, and coordinate work with other resineers
Understand the high-level goals, and thus know how to prioritize your work
Challenge orthodoxy when that will help the product evolve
Work efficiently with a certain amount of ambiguity in the tasks you're executing
REQUIREMENTS
Need to have:
Desire to make yourself and others more effective. You'd be bothered by an inefficient process
Good understanding of software engineering practices and how to apply them
Excellent written communication skills, and fluency in English
Self-discipline to take on a project and push it to completion without too much management. You also know when to ask for help
Strong problem-solving abilities. You know how to split a complex problem into incremental pieces
Basic front-end development skills
Nice to have:
A sample of your work (URL or attached sample)
Contributions to OSS projects (please include a URL)
Having worked remotely before
Experience with Resin.io as a user
Experience with embedded GNU/Linux, anything ranging from personal projects with a Raspberry Pi to commercial or industrial scenarios with custom devices
Experience with React, Node.js, Docker, PostgreSQL, or Kubernetes
Experience with embedded development and microprocessors
Experience with the Electron framework and cross-platform development
Experience leading software projects in the open source world
Make sure to let us know if any of these items apply to you!
Perks & Benefits
Work with an extremely talented, diverse team
Equipment of your choice
Remote-friendly
Flexible working hours
Flexible vacation policy

Backend Engineer - Tech Ops Monzo London United Kingdom / Remote (UK) ÂŁ69,000 to ÂŁ116,000 a year
November 2020
3 Applicants This Week
More Than 6 Months Old
Job Description
Weâre looking for a Backend Engineer to join our TechOps squad at Monzo.
Our TechOps squad is primarily responsible for making sure everyone at Monzo has all of the tools they need to do a great job. That means managing all of our devices (predominantly running Mac and Chrome OS), managing our G-Suite domains, providing 1:1 support to Monzonauts across the business, and much much more.
A big contributor to the success TechOps have had to date is the way weâve embedded engineers in the squad, meaning weâve been able to automate away a lot of the manual work traditionally associated with a TechOps squad.
This has allowed us to move quickly, achieve an incredible ratio of TechOps people to total employees, and reap the benefits of being able to hire people all across the world without friction.
Youâll help us solve problems such as:
How do we continue to offer outstanding service to all of our Monzonauts without exponentially increasing the number of people working in TechOps? What can we build to automate the work of 20 people?
What parts of traditional IT can we rethink with code to supercharge TechOps at Monzo?
How do we build a seamless, delightful experience for Monzonauts with best-in-class homegrown code and third party services?
The role
Youâll be a backend engineer in the squad. Some of the projects youâll be involved in might include:
Integrating MDM (Mobile Device Management) and making this a function that integrates with everything else at Monzo, from inventory to access levels on your AWS account.
Building a seamless way to replicate groups, roles and other logical frameworks across first and third party applications to make authorisation for a Monzonaut a seamless experience.
Building on a system to track any and every Monzo-owned asset, from network switches to access passes and everything in between.
So much more - youâll have the opportunity to influence our roadmap and build on the foundations already in place to continue scaling TechOps with Monzo
Youâll work closely with TechOps generalists and engineers from around the business to tackle some of the challenges mentioned above, working at the intersection between Security, People and TechOps to make sure weâre moving forwards together.
Security, scalability and how we continue to support the services youâre building should always be front of mind.
Youâll also have the opportunity to coach and mentor others in the squad on engineering best practices. We want to empower everyone in the squad to automate away the low-value manual work, and youâll be key to unlocking this potential alongside other engineers in the squad.
At Monzo weâre aiming to build the best current account in the world. We are always keen to hear from capable, creative engineers who want to help us accomplish that goal đ
Our backend engineers have a variety of different backgrounds
We have several non-graduates; only some of us studied Computer Science; one of the team has a degree in Marketing; some of us have worked in huge companies; some have only ever worked in startups; others are former consultants. As long as you enjoy learning new things, weâd love to talk to you. We do not ask for formal qualifications or degree requirements for any of our engineering roles.
We are actively creating an equitable environment for all of our engineers to thrive
Diversity and inclusion are a priority for us and we are making sure we have lots of support for all of our people to grow at Monzo. We provide a sponsorship framework in Engineering for women and people of colour; all of our leaders are trained on privilege awareness and we are creating partnerships with organisations dedicated to supporting underrepresented groups. You can read more in our 2020 Diversity and Inclusion report.
We encourage an open and transparent working environment
You can get involved in any aspect of the business you are interested in and, following Stripeâs example, all emails in the company are visible in an email archive. We contribute to open source software as much as possible. Our blog is a good place to learn even more about what we do!
Monzo works in project-based sprints in small, interdisciplinary teams
We have around 150 engineers out of roughly 1,400 people in total - and we have big ambitions. There are many interesting challenges ahead, and we're happy for people to move between teams or to specialise, whatever you prefer. As an engineer here you'd be able to work directly with anyone across the company, and we run regular knowledge-sharing sessions so youâll learn heaps about everything from how banks work to effective communication.
At Monzo you will get to work with a lot of exciting new technology.
We rely heavily on the following tools and technologies:
Go to write our application code (thereâs an excellent interactive Go tutorial here)
We also have two physical datacenter sites with actual cables to connect to various third parties
Our product squads are truly cross-functional.
This role is all about collaborating across disciplines to test hypotheses and make a difference to customers. As a product backend engineer youâll work in a squad alongside product managers, marketers, user researchers, designers, mobile engineers, web engineers, data analysts, business analysts, writers and more!
You should apply if
Youâre someone who doesn't wait to be told what to do. You spot problems and proactively fix them
Youâre an engineer who's happy writing (or would like to learn to write) views in React and backend services in Go

You have ideas about how we can think âbig pictureâ and can scale TechOps going forward
Youâre comfortable working with an interrupt-driven squad. A lot of what the squad does is reactive, and youâll need to support that at times. TechOps spin a lot of plates, and itâs important that you can see the bigger picture and prioritise your time to work on the most important problems

We have payroll set up in three countries: the UK, Ireland, and France. Right now, we can only hire people who work from those countries and weâll keep this updated with new ones as we expand and are able to hire from more places đ
We offer flexible working hours and trust you to work enough hours to do your job well, at times that suit you and your team.
Diversity and inclusion is a priority for us â if we want to solve problems for people around the world, our team has to represent our customers.

We promise not to ask you any brain teasers or trick questions. We might design a system together on a whiteboard, the same way we often work together, but we wonât make you write code on one.
