About Gusto

Gusto is a modern, online small business platform on a mission to grow the small business economy. On top of full-service payroll, Gusto offers health insurance, 401(k)s, expert HR, and team management tools. Today, Gusto offices in Denver, San Francisco, and New York serve more than 400,000 businesses nationwide, that’s why we’re committed to building a collaborative and inclusive workplace, both physically and virtually.

We’re hiring seasoned engineers to join our teams that work on customer-facing products, developing features and iterating across our platform. As a Gusto Software Engineer at this level, you’ll oversee projects end-to-end by influencing initial feature specs, building backend APIs, writing frontend code, and overseeing ongoing improvements for deployed features.

Here’s what you’ll do day to day :

  • Architect, build, and test Gusto’s product suite that spans across Payroll, Benefits, HR, Time, Tax Credits, and more
  • Mentor other engineers to help solve some of the hardest technical problems out there in very complex domains and at a large scale
  • Collaborate with our Product Management and Design teams to understand customer pain points, come up with solutions, and then prototype, iterate, and launch daily
  • Build a product that our customers genuinely love

Here’s what we’re looking for :

  • Successful applicants typically have 8+ years of software development experience
  • Experience owning multi-quarter projects that solve complex engineering problems and make measurable customer impact at scale
  • Experience building scalable solutions that eliminate customer pain
  • Ability to effectively communicate across engineering teams and with business stakeholders
  • Experience in, or interest working in, Ruby on Rails
  • Ability to mentor engineers to maximize their performance and impact
  • Experience with large scale refactors, performance and reliability issues, and a strong sense of ownership over all aspects of your product area
  • Passion for creating memorable experiences for customers
  • Appreciation for a collaborative, test-driven environment
  • Able to build well-structured, maintainable, well-documented code
  • Please note that travel to Gusto's Denver office for onboarding is required for this position.

    Our cash compensation amount for this role is targeted at $163,000 / yr to $204,000 / yr in Denver & most remote locations, $198,000 / yr to $247,000 / yr for San Francisco, New York & Seattle and $175,000(CAD) / yr to $219,000(CAD) / yr in Canada. Stock equity is additional.

    Gusto has physical office spaces in Denver, San Francisco, and New York City. Employees who are based in those locations will be expected to work from the office on designated days approximately 2-3 days per week (or more depending on role).

    Gusto is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate in hiring or any employment decision based on race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions), marital status, ancestry, physical or mental disability, genetic information, veteran status, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, or other applicable legally protected characteristic.
