Software Engineer
The software engineer role balances responsibilities such as producing specifications, executing the full software development lifecycle, and integrating user feedback. You will also gain valuable startup and leadership experience, such as maintaining product-market fit, experimenting with business models, and making engineering tradeoffs. A startup developer differs from a “big tech” developer by working cross-functionally and taking on outsized responsibility and decision-making.
Metric is focused on creating an environment where engineering team members can thrive. This includes but is not limited to time set aside for open source projects, budget for conferences and courses, and a focus on developing clean and high quality code while balancing product and business needs.
Our team is based in Chicago, and we offer 3 weeks of remote work each year. We are COVID cautious and do not intend to be in an office this summer.

Target Experience
We are seeking a motivated, self-directed, and impact-oriented teammate who thrives in a fast-paced environment. A technical degree in Computer Science or equivalent startup work experience is required.
