Senior Software Engineer, Search

About us

Office Hours is a consulting platform and marketplace. We help people earn by sharing what they know. Users create profiles, set their rate, and start receiving consulting or survey opportunities based on their professional expertise. Companies and organizations seeking unique insights can quickly and easily search the Office Hours marketplace to find and learn from thousands of advisors on demand.

What we believe

We believe that human knowledge is the world’s most valuable asset. And yet, despite being more interconnected than ever, most knowledge still remains stuck in our heads, inaccessible and underutilized. Office Hours’ mission is to help everyone realize the value of what they know by building tools for the knowledge-sharing economy.

Similar to Uber or Airbnb, things are simple on the surface : search, match, connect, and pay. But under the hood, there are endless fun and challenging engineering problems across search, discovery, recommendations, data, logistics, payments, and performance. We’ve built the entire stack from the ground up : profiles to showcase what people know, search experiences to find and discover relevant matches, workflow tools and integrations to help streamline logistics (e.g., compliance, scheduling, payments, etc), & even an underlying knowledge graph that helps stitch all of these experiences together.

We’re specifically looking for an experienced search engineer. As our company's growth has accelerated, so have our search and data opportunities and challenges. How might we improve the precision, recall, and performance of our search and recommendation experience? How might we design internal services to best leverage our knowledge graph across the platform? How might we best architect clean, extensible, and composable APIs to accelerate development velocity?

Search is at the core of the Office Hours platform and marketplace that connects our clients and advisors. It's critical in helping us realize our company's mission of making knowledge easily accessible and infinitely scalable.
