Job description

Pitch is the collaborative presentation platform for modern teams. With a focus on real-time collaboration, smart workflows, and intuitive design features, we make it fast and delightful for teams to create and deliver beautiful presentations. Our presentation and template galleries give everyone the ability to publish their own standout work, learn from one another, and find the creative spark for their next presentation. Tens of thousands of teams have made the switch to Pitch, including top brands like Intercom, Superhuman, and Notion. And we’re just getting started.

At Pitch, our backend is built on a diverse range of systems, and we're looking for a skilled Clojure engineer to help us enhance and expand these systems. We're seeking individuals who are passionate about thoughtful system design and adept at striking the right balance between achieving excellence and delivering results efficiently. Join us to make a meaningful impact on our evolving technology landscape. If you're interested in solving tangible problems and want to be part of a diverse, remote-first team of visionaries, we'd love to hear from you!

What you’ll get to do

Design and build - you'll be part of a team who will implement features all the way from architecture, to database schemas and data structures, code, testing and deployment.
Iterate on your work - you'll keep working on refining features that already exist in the application by checking the results of experiments, via user feedback or thanks to system monitoring.
Help us evolve - we are always looking for ways to improve. You'll have opportunities to present your ideas and work to the company where they will have a chance to become part of our culture.

Who we are looking for

You are an experienced backend developer with hard-earned production skills.
You know Clojure and its ecosystem. You're passionate about the language and functional programming.
You have designed and implemented robust realtime systems with high availability.
You ensure code quality and system security through automation, unit testing and structured code reviews.
You are product oriented, combining thoughtfulness with pragmatism and a will to get stuff done. You are calm and focused under pressure, and consider work-life balance essential for long-term happiness and productivity.
You believe effective and successful work is made possible by clear and honest communication, with a shared understanding of the long-term vision and immediate next actions. When you don't fully understand something, you ask lots of questions and use the opportunity to learn and grow.
