Who We Are

The Farmer’s Dog was created to radically improve the $90 billion global pet food industry — starting with a subscription service that sends freshly-made food directly to customers’ doors. Long term, our aim is to simplify every part of pet care, bettering the lives of the animals who make our lives better. Backed by the early investors of Warby Parker, Dollar Shave Club, and Sweetgreen, we've raised over $100M in funding and seek to build a company as healthy as the dogs we feed.

Join The Farmer’s Dog team as we continue to figure out ways of bringing peace of mind to customers, health to their companions, and much-needed change to the way people feed and care for their pets.

Where You'll Come In

The Farmer’s Dog is looking for a Software Engineer to join our growing Engineering Department on our Core-Ecommerce function. 

Our Core e-Commerce owns our subscription based platform. This function builds out the complex and shared parts of the subscription engine. This includes things like subscription management, product management, order generation, and box packing logic. Often other functions will work closely with Core e-Commerce to establish the foundation for the feature they need or work under their guidance in building it themselves. 

Our aim is to offer a seamless subscription experience through on-time production, customized products and best in class customer support. Although this position will likely involve more backend focused work, the ideal candidate we're looking for would be someone who has a desire to work across our stack in a more full stack focussed environment.

How You'll Make An Impact

• Developing full stack tools to streamline the addition of new products
• Creating robust APIs to manage subscriptions
• Separating our core API into decoupled services
• Building out product and subscription recommendation systems
• Adding features to our pricing engine
• Writing maintainable tests with Jest
• Working side by side with engineers, product managers and data analysts to design new software

We're Excited About You Because

• 3+ years of professional experience working as a Software Engineer doing hands on development 
• Recent experience working as a Backend Software Engineer or Full Stack Software Engineer with backend focused work
• Shown understanding of APIs (GraphQL is a plus).
• Proficient experience working with JavaScript (ES6+), React/Redux and knowledge of NodeJS 
• We take pride in writing software the right way. That means peer reviews, ample time to refactor code, and write tests

A Few of Our Best Benefits

• Brand new dog-friendly office in Greenwich Village (upon a safe return-to-office!)
• Market-competitive compensation and equity packages
• Comprehensive Healthcare, Dental, and Vision
• 12 week paid parental leave
• Flexible PTO and (when in office) WFH policy
• Discounted fresh food for your pup
• Your pet interrupting video calls (and in person-meetings) is now a feature, not a bug
