About us

In the last few years, remote and hybrid work has had an explosion in popularity, giving workers an unprecedented level of access to opportunity and an increase in quality of life. However, our existing tools were not set up to do remote work well. Work can be isolating, transactional, and void of the camaraderie that makes everyone feel like they’re in it together.

To solve this, Gather builds virtual offices that bring the best of in-person work to remote. We’ve already seen success with our approach, with over 10,000 remote-first companies using our spaces every day. 

And yet it’s still the early days for our broader vision of the Metaverse. We’re excited about how the Metaverse can break down physical constraints that exist today, not just in where you can work, but which friends/family you can see, or what educational opportunities you can have access to. 

Join us in this mission!

Role overview:

Product Engineers at Gather design and implement the features that make up what is simultaneously a live video chat platform, multiplayer game, and modern web app. The thoughtful design and rapid experimentation embody the core of what’s enabled Gather to scale to where it is today and to scale to the next million Gather users. You’ll be responsible for using your customer understanding to work closely with designers, product managers, and others within the company in order to quickly design, deliver, and iterate on features.

  • Enable more powerful tools and innovative remote work features to be used within Gather
  • Level up our meeting experiences and create opportunities for moments of serendipity for Gather users
  • Write maintainable, clear, well-architected code, tests, and documentation
  • Uphold a high-quality bar through code and design reviews

What you bring:

  • Ability to ruthlessly prioritize in a chaotic and ambiguous environment
  • A healthy tolerance for the balance between Doing Things Right and iterating and shipping quickly
  • Experience working with Typescript and NodeJS
  • A keen intuition for well-designed software and well-written code
  • Intrinsic motivation and the drive to solve difficult problems without guidance
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills
  • 6+ years of experience working with Typescript, React, and Redux
