Position Overview

Anrok is addressing a critical challenge for Internet businesses: navigating the evolving landscape of tax compliance. As the digital economy grows, companies need to manage sales tax exposure, calculate rates, and file returns across numerous jurisdictions. Anrok provides an end-to-end solution by integrating with billing and payment systems to automate sales tax compliance. We have secured over $50 million in funding from prominent investors such as Sequoia, Index, and Khosla Ventures.

As a Software Engineer at Anrok, you will collaborate with your colleagues to gain a deep understanding of customer needs, design effective systems to solve real-world problems, and build exceptional product experiences. Our current technology stack includes TypeScript (frontend and backend), Postgres, and React, though prior experience with these technologies is not a prerequisite.

Responsibilities

  • Own the scoping, design, and development of product features.
  • Identify and resolve bugs and technical debt.
  • Collaborate with the Support team to address technical issues for customers.

Requirements

  • Strong technical background with 7+ years of experience as a software engineer.
  • 4+ years of experience building web application backends.
  • Experience with frontend development is a plus, but not required.
  • Ability to thoroughly analyze problems to ensure the development of appropriate solutions at the right time.
  • Willingness to push back when necessary to ensure the best outcomes.
  • Capacity to design systems that consider current and future needs, technical debt, and maintenance, with the ability to clearly articulate trade-offs.
  • A proactive approach to mentoring and elevating team members by sharing knowledge and experience.

What We Offer

  • The equity potential of an early-stage startup combined with the market validation of a more established company.
  • Daily lunch and snacks for employees working from our San Francisco office.
  • 100% coverage of medical, dental, and vision insurance.
  • One Medical membership.
  • Flexible sick leave benefits and more.
  • An annual learning and development stipend for books, online courses, and conferences, supported by a curious team eager to share learnings.
  • Annual team offsites and in-person events at our growing Anrok hubs.
  • A home office setup stipend to ensure you have the necessary equipment to succeed.
