Full Job Description
đź“‹ Description
- • Are you a new grad who wants to build something that matters from day one? At Solace, you won't be relegated to small bug fixes or endless onboarding—you'll ship real features to real users within your first weeks.
- • You'll join a spectacularly talented team who will push you to grow, but you'll also be expected to think independently, ask the right questions, and own your work from design through deployment.
- • You will commit code daily. You will make mistakes. You will learn from them and get better every single day.
- • You are scrappy, resourceful, and eager to prove yourself. You don't need all the answers—you need the drive to find them.
- • You're not afraid of ambiguity or hard problems; in fact, they excite you. You take feedback like fuel, and you're looking for a place that will invest in making you exceptional, not comfortable.
- • This is an in-person role in our Redwood City office, 3 days a week.
- • You'll ship production code in your first week—real features that impact real users.
- • Build across the stack, from database queries to API endpoints to UI components, learning the full lifecycle of software development.
- • Take ownership of features end-to-end. You'll be accountable for what you build, and you'll feel the weight and pride of that responsibility.
- • Work directly with senior engineers, product managers, and designers. You'll have mentorship, but you'll also be expected to drive your own work forward.
- • Debug production issues, refactor messy code, and improve systems—not glamorous, but essential, and you'll learn more from this than any bootcamp could teach you.
- • Move fast and iterate. We deploy continuously, and you'll see your code in production within hours, not weeks.
- • Participate in code reviews, architectural discussions, and product planning. Your voice matters here, even on day one.
- • You'll be working in our modern tech stack and will gain hands-on experience with:
- • Typescript across all our applications
- • NestJS API with TypeORM
- • Postgres and Redis
- • React with our custom UI library built on shadcn
- • Tailwind CSS
- • Most companies will have you shadow people for six months. We'll have you shipping code in weeks. Most companies will give you toy projects. We'll give you real problems that matter.
- • You'll grow faster here in one year than you would in three years at a big tech company. It will be hard. You will struggle. And you will come out the other side a dramatically better engineer.
- • This is not a job for someone looking for work-life balance metrics or a gentle onboarding process. This is for the new grad who wants to prove they can compete with engineers who have years of experience.
- • If that's you, we can't wait to meet you.
🎯 Requirements
- • A bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent practical experience)—graduating between December 2026 and June 2027.
- • Solid fundamentals in data structures, algorithms, and software design.
- • Experience with at least one modern programming language (TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Java, etc.). Bonus if you've worked with TypeScript, React, or Node.js.
- • Projects that show you can build real things—personal projects, hackathons, internships, open source contributions.
- • A hunger to learn and an ego small enough to admit when you don't know something.
- • Grit. You don't give up when things get hard. You Google, you ask questions, you figure it out.
- • Strong communication skills. You can explain your thinking, take feedback without defensiveness, and collaborate with people who aren't engineers.
- • Extreme bias toward action. You'd rather ship something imperfect and iterate than wait for perfect.
🏖️ Benefits
- • Competitive salary and benefits package.
- • Opportunities for growth and professional development.
- • Collaborative and dynamic work environment.
- • Access to cutting-edge technology and tools.
🏠Location
- • Redwood City, CA
- • In-person role, 3 days a week
- • Based in the United States
