Who we are

Hi there 👋 . We’re Ethena – the compliance platform for modern teams. Ethena’s suite of admin- and employee-friendly training and compliance tools help you check all the boxes and build a better workplace. Our training isn’t just a thing people get through, it’s something they actually enjoy (we got the stats to prove it—over 90% positive ratings). We are proud to be a part of the culture at companies like Zendesk, Pinterest, Figma, and Notion. In 2020, Ethena announced our $15.5 million Series A, and in 2022 we raised an additional $30 million Series B to build out Ethena’s best-in-class training solution, further invest in data and analytics, and continue launching impactful compliance products. Ethena’s Series B was led by Lachy Groom, with participation from existing investors including Felicis, Neo, Homebrew, and others. It’s a great time to join our team!


How we work

We’re a team of people who value diversity in all its forms. We love adding new perspectives and appreciate those who ask questions that help us challenge assumptions, explore new directions, and improve what we’ve already built. We believe it’s our responsibility to create an environment in which every person can bring their full, authentic selves to work.


And hey, others have noticed what we’re building too—we were just ranked #47 on the Best Startup Employers list! 🎉


We push each other to be our best and do our training proud. We love feedback, practice empathy, and embrace humor. Seriously, we’re not shy about puns. If you brought us to a picnic, we’d be compli-ants. If we were shoes in London, we’d be trainers. If we were--you get it. Humor is welcome here. Read more about us on our careers page and follow our team on our Instagram!


Our workforce is fully remote and your personal working hours can be based on your own timezone. All team-wide meetings are scheduled to be inclusive of all North American time zones.


We’re looking for a Software Engineer I and Software Engineer II to join our Engineering team! Each role will report to an Engineering Manager, and will be responsible for building great software and be a key contributor to our product development team.

What you'll do

  • Develop full-stack software using Typescript, MySQL, React, and Next.js
  • Own features from the idea phase through to production
  • Help us maintain a high-quality and nimble codebase
  • Collaborate with other engineers, designers, product managers, and members of the wider Ethena team

What makes a great candidate

  • Mastery of computer science fundamentals, either via a college degree, alternative schooling, or extensive practical experience.
  • Experience working on an agile software development team.
  • Experience shipping features to production and maintaining them.
  • Experience with Javascript/Typescript, MySQL, React or Next.js
  • Familiarity with Git, CI/CD, database migrations, logs & monitoring, and other production development concepts.
  • A self-starter who thrives in a hands-off management environment — someone who takes ownership of their work with a “roll up your sleeves mentality”, is comfortable with ambiguity, proactively identifies problems and solutions, and drives their work forward with minimal oversight.
  • We’re an early-stage startup so we’re not just looking for someone to run a playbook. We want you to help build it.
  • Passion for what we’re building here at Ethena and a strong alignment with our core values (which includes an impeccable sense of humor)

What’s going to be the hardest part

  • Listening to a lot of feedback from your peers and using it as an opportunity to learn and grow quickly

Compensation

  • We have two levels we are hiring for: Software Engineer I and Software Engineer II.

At Ethena, we're committed to fair and equitable compensation. We carefully evaluate each candidate's skills and qualifications to provide our best possible offer upfront. Our no-negotiation policy ensures that our first offer is always our best offer, promoting pay equity throughout our organization.
