Python Job Details
In the time it takes you to read this job ad, around 100 new accounts will have signed up to Linktree. We’re growing, fast! Since 2020, Linktree has from 4M to over 20M accounts, scaling from 20 team members to over 200. To learn more about how we work (and get the 101 on our $6K flexible benefits package), keep reading.
P.S. If you don’t tick every box in this ad, please don’t rule yourself out just yet. We’ve seen the research that women and other people in underrepresented groups tend to only apply when the checklist is all ticks. We prioritise hiring incredible human beings over ticking boxes – so if this role resonates with you, hit that apply button!
We hire with a people-first approach, so more importantly as a human, you will be collaborative, curious, enjoy solving complex problems and have empathy for the growing pains of a rapidly scaling startup. We are looking for backend software engineers who are great problem solvers, enjoy collaborating with others (not just engineers), and value well-written and well-tested code.
Our Content Moderation team is responsible for tooling that facilitates the detection and removal of content that is restricted in certain jurisdictions, or not permitted on Linktree. We are looking for Mid and Junior Software Engineers to join our squad!
You will be working with many different tools and technologies. Work in the monolith will be PHP, building everything else out in Typescript, Node.js, Python, Docker, Buildkite, and more. You will work alongside our Trust & Safety team to build and integrate automated tools that make our user's experience of Linktree safer and friendlier.
We strive for a work culture of flexibility and collaboration, which includes fully remote work, a focus on the quality of your work instead of when you work, strong asynchronous communication, mentorship, and pairing early and often.
Requirements
Where & How We Work
We are a global, diverse group across age, gender, and race and offer a truly flexible and family friendly work environment. Kids, pets, and the occasional delivery person are all actively encouraged to appear on our Zoom screens. All of us at Linktree work either fully remote or a hybrid "remote, but in-office sometimes" approach and that will continue even when COVID is behind us.
We currently have offices in Melbourne, Sydney and LA is coming next, but our team is spread across Australia, United States, and New Zealand. Growing from 20 people in early 2020, to 50 in 2021 and over 200 in 2022, Linktree is still growing rapidly!
Being globally distributed doesn't mean working to one timezone and we offer autonomy and flexibility in how you structure your days and weeks. There will be the need for some collaboration outside of a "normal" 9-5 being a global company, but we aim to work asynchronously where possible.
Our Culture & Benefits
Linktree's company culture and values are based around collaboration, diversity, inclusion, and flexibility. Those are all nice words but to give you some more specific examples:
- Employee Stock Option Program - we want each and every employee to share in the company’s success as we go further together.
The Linktree Story
The average number of social media accounts is close to 9 per person these days. Chances are you’re also using more than 3-4 social media platforms - but where should someone who wants to discover more about you achieve that? In a highly fragmented digital world, the concept of presenting your whole self feels overwhelming to most - and that’s where Linktree comes in.
Creating this category 5 years ago, we launched a simple tool that allowed anyone to manage their corner of the online world. Want to link all your social media accounts under one link? Thinking of turning your passion into your income? Want to share your ideas, beliefs, or even just a playlist you like? Linktree has the platform to help you get it done.
It sounds good, we hear you say, but how do I know if it works? Fair question - why don’t you take it up with Facebook, TikTok, Redbull, HBO, Metallica, Alicia Keys, Selena Gomez, or Michelle Obama? They’re all using Linktree!
With close to 40,000 signups per day (with no signs of stopping), plus our latest funding round of $152M AUD valuing Linktree at $1.7 billion, we’re on our way to making a real impact on the digital universe - and we’d love for you to join us for this ride.
At Linktree, we celebrate and support everyone’s perspective and background, and we’re proud to be an equal opportunity workplace. We aim to foster a diverse and inclusive environment where all team members have a sense of belonging, because we believe in going further together. Linktree welcomes all people regardless of sex, gender identity, race, ethnicity, disability, pregnancy, age, or other lived experience.
