About us

We are building a virtual universe which fundamentally improves how people interact online. Today, that means a powerful remote-social platform.

We already have people working out of our office spaces, attending our virtual conferences, or going to school on our campus spaces.

We have folks hosting everything from magic conventions to artist EP launches to thanksgiving dinners, and even a few weddings.

The mission of Gather is to remove physical constraints on peoples' lives, and provide a virtual world which surpasses the real one in interconnectedness, personal touch, and expressiveness.

Role Overview :

Product Engineers at Gather design and implement the features that make up what is simultaneously a live video chat platform, multiplayer game, and modern web app.

The thoughtful design and rapid experimentation embody the core of what’s enabled Gather to scale to where it is today and to scale to the next million Gather users.

You’ll be responsible for using your customer understanding to work closely with designers, product managers, and others within the company in order to quickly design, deliver, and iterate on features.

You care about connecting users and making remote work a great experience within Gather.

Where you will make an impact :

• Collaborate with designers, product managers, and engineers to design, implement, and iterate on features and product directions.
• Ability to quickly iterate on experiments while preventing technical lock-in.
• Enable more powerful tools and remote work features to be used within Gather.
• Level up our meeting experiences and create opportunities for moments of serendipity for Gather users.
• Write maintainable, clear, well-architected code, tests, and documentation.
• Participate in code reviews and design reviews to ensure quality and good architecture.

What you bring :

• Ability to ruthlessly prioritize in a chaotic and ambiguous environment.
• A healthy tolerance for the balance between Doing Things Right and iterating and shipping quickly.
• Experience working with Typescript and NodeJS.
• A keen intuition for well-designed software and well-written code.
• Intrinsic motivation and the drive to solve difficult problems without guidance.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
• 6+ years of experience working with Typescript, React, and Redux.
• You are scrappy, have a bias toward action, and love moving fast.
• You enjoy spending time with customers and are adept at getting to the root problems that your product is uniquely positioned to solve.

Benefits

• Work remotely out of a state-of-the-art virtual office!
• Competitive compensation, benefits, and meaningful equity.
• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and their dependents.
• 401k and matching program.
• Generous PTO policy and mental health days to recharge.
