Software Engineer

AHEAD builds platforms for digital business by weaving together advances in cloud infrastructure, automation and analytics, and software delivery to help enterprises deliver on the promise of digital transformation.

About the role

We’re on the hunt for a sharp, motivated Software Engineer early in their career to help build Hatch, an advanced platform for IT lifecycle management, renewal, procurement, and logistics. Hatch gives enterprises real-time visibility and control over their IT assets, orders, contracts, and inventory across thousands of sites. Its sibling platform, Unity, extends those capabilities to streamline our own operations and service delivery.

You’ll join a progressive engineering team that lives on the forefront of technology, building real products, adopting new tools early, and trading ideas constantly. This is a place to be noticed for your work and your talent, not your years of experience, and to learn an enormous amount, fast. You’ll start by contributing to real features and grow toward owning them end-to-end, writing, testing, and shipping full-stack code with support from experienced engineers.

Our stack today is Elixir and Phoenix. No prior experience with them is required. We care that you bring solid fundamentals and the drive to pick up whatever a problem demands.

Responsibilities

• Contribute to features across our platforms and grow toward owning them end-to-end, with support from experienced engineers.
• Build full-stack functionality for internal and public web applications, learning to make sound design decisions along the way.
• Use AI tools and agents to work and learn faster, then review, test, and harden what you ship.
• Take part in the full development life cycle: implementation, testing, debugging, and support.
• Participate in code reviews, giving and receiving feedback as one of the fastest ways to grow.
• Work directly with teammates and end users to understand the business problem behind each request.
• Write reliable, well-tested code and fix issues promptly.
• Pick up new languages, tools, and concepts as you go. Curiosity is the job.

Requirements

• Some foundation in software development, whether through a CS degree, a bootcamp, internships, personal projects, or equivalent self-taught experience.
• Developing engineering judgment: learning what “good” looks like and how to tell solid solutions from shaky ones, including code an AI wrote.
• The beginnings of a product mindset: you care about the user and the outcome, not just closing the ticket.
• Interest in using modern AI development tools well, paired with the instinct to verify and test what you ship.
• Comfortable writing code in at least one modern language, and eager to learn Elixir, Phoenix, and whatever else a problem calls for. (No prior Elixir experience required.)
• A growing foundation in software design and good practices, including testing, version control, and code review.
• Clear, direct communication and a willingness to ask good questions.
• Curiosity and drive. You love to learn, and you see your work through to the end.
• Activity on GitHub, a portfolio, or projects you can show us is a big plus.

Benefits

• Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance
• 401(k)
• Paid company holidays
• Paid time off
• Paid parental and caregiver leave
