We’re not just building an app—we’re building unstoppable teams. So what do you say, are you in?
Your Impact Starts HereSenior Software Engineer on the Core Product team, you’ll build the products small business owners rely on every single day: Scheduling, HR Management (HRM), and Payroll. This is where a shift becomes a timecard, becomes a paycheck, and where getting it right really matters.
You ship fast, own what you ship, and make the people around you better. You’ll work alongside Product, Design, and Data, and you’ll build the AI-first way. As an E3, you’ll lead projects end to end and grow your impact across the team.
The Foundation for SuccessThese are the experiences and strengths that will set you up for success in this role:
Ship end to end:
Design, build, and launch features across Scheduling, HRM, and Payroll, and stay with them in production
Build it right:
Deliver reliable, testable, maintainable code where accuracy matters, from hours worked to dollars paid
Connect the domains:
Solve problems where Scheduling, Time Tracking, HRM, and Payroll meet, and make those seams invisible to customers
Be Customer Obsessed:
Stay close to the small business owners and workers who use what you build, and fix what hurts them first
Build AI-first:
Use AI and agentic tools daily across design, code, tests, and reviews, and share the workflows that work
Raise the bar:
Give sharp code reviews, advance Homebase engineering standards, and mentor the engineers around you
Partner closely:
Work with PMs, Designers, and Data to shape what we build and how fast we learn
Your scope:
Lead the implementation of components and services, own estimates and delivery, and bring junior engineers along
AI Fluency Expectations
Retool your own workflows with AI to raise velocity and quality, and measure the impact
Share the AI workflows that work with your team and help others try them
Know when AI creates real leverage and when it adds noise, and keep human judgment on every change you ship
