Job Description

We’re looking for a software engineer who’s experienced with React to join the Organise team, and get stuck into developing our product and shipping feature experiments.

Organise is on a mission to give everyone the tools, network and confidence to improve their life at work. We have a great starting point: hundreds of thousands of active users, a straightforward deployment process, and a big focus on fast experiments to improve our product. We build our software in React/Next.JS and Ruby (mainly Rails), use Postgres hosted on AWS RDS for our databases, and use Heroku to host most of our web applications.

✨ In the role you will:

  • Make big improvements to our network product. You'll get stuck into our codebases from day one, shipping feature experiments that we’ll test with thousands of users at a time
  • Improve and iterate the features you build, based on live feedback and testing - collaborating with our backend engineers focusing on our APIs and infrastructure
  • Be involved in product design - you'll work closely with our Designer and the broader team throughout the product design process to ensure we deliver great features quickly
  • Work closely with our Lead Engineer and CTO on product priorities: this will include day-to-day maintenance and debugging across our tech stack, as well as longer-term refactoring and improvements

💪 You should apply if

  • Working at an early stage startup like Organise excites you!
  • You have experience with React
  • You have experience building modern frontend applications that consume backend APIs
  • You are willing to learn and contribute to development of our Rails-based backend application (we will support you! you do not need to have previous experience with Rails)
  • You are curious and passionate about solving problems and building products that empower millions of users
  • You are able to communicate effectively and work well with a diverse range of non-technical colleagues
  • You are detail orientated in your frontend designs and have worked closely with designers on previous projects
  • Nice-to-have: you are familiar with Next.JS and Ruby on Rails

💫 Who we are

Organise is a fast-growing startup on a mission to give everyone the tools, network and confidence to improve their life at work. Our vision is for a world in which decent, fairly paid work is available and accessible to all, and where all of us are treated with dignity and respect at work.

More than 1 million people are already using Organise. We put power in people’s hands, building a progressive force for change inside companies.

The Organise staff team pride ourselves on nimble, focused workplace campaigns. That means our team is decisive, ambitious and happy to take risks. We’re characterised by our energy and enthusiasm; we’d rather aim high and see what happens, than play it safe. We’re passionate about putting Organise members first – we believe change at work happens when more people get involved.

We're expanding our team and building out our platform to include a peer-to-peer network. We're building a space for people to build power and support each other at work pseudonymously. A space for our core members to talk to each other in a space their boss can't see. Small monthly subscriptions from members will verify their identity. The Organise network is paid for and protected by the workers. We currently operate in the UK, and are aiming to launch in the US

FAQs

What is Organise?

Organise is a worker-led network of over a million people who believe that better work is possible. Organise empowers everyone with the tools, support and confidence to improve their life at work. Our worker-led network mixes collective action and digital campaigning techniques to be heard at the highest levels.

The Organise worker-driven model allows anyone to start a campaign for free; connecting workers from the same organisation, sector or country - uniting members who share a common goal. It then provides them with the digital tools, support and confidence needed to raise a collective voice and improve their working lives.

The platform is designed to complement Union membership as well as support those not affiliated with a traditional Union. Organise provides campaigning tools including anonymised surveys, open letters, petitions, and communication channels to help amplify worker-led campaigns and get them off the ground.

Why did you start Organise?

The rapidly changing nature of work means that thousands of people don’t have access to the basic tools that allow them to collectively improve their lives at work. Right now big changes are being made to employment benefits and conditions without staff ever being asked. People are forced to ‘like it or lump it’ - and now lots of people feel that it's just the way it is. But better work is possible. Organise looks to turn that on its head, and give people across the globe - regardless of job title or industry - access to the tools they need to team up with their colleagues and improve things. All while protecting their identity, so they don’t have to fear losing their jobs.
