Who We Are: 

We’re Breakroom (https://www.breakroom.cc). Our mission is to turn every job into a good job. We’re building a community powered rating for every job in the world, and publishing it all online. 

We’re making sure everyone has access to great information to power the next step in their career, and we’re supporting employers to create good jobs along the way. More than 2,000,000 people have taken the Breakroom Quiz, and we’ve rated more than 18,000 employers across the UK and USA.

We’re building a world-class, inclusive team and we welcome applications from all groups.

Who are we looking for?

We’ve recently launched Breakroom in the US, and we’re growing our team to help us scale up. We’re looking for people who want to join an early stage engineering and product team as we develop in a new market. You will be responsible for:

  • Designing, writing, shipping and maintaining code
  • Building internal tools and shaping our processes
  • Contributing expertise to decisions that guide the future of the product and the team

Our platform is built on Elixir, using the Phoenix web framework, on top of Postgres, Redis, Google PubSub and OpenSearch. We love it, and think you will too. We don’t expect you to have experience writing Elixir/Phoenix and we’ll support you to learn it on the job.

How we work:

We use a lightweight agile approach to product development, leaning heavily on data for decision making, and always centering our users’ needs. We’re a very collaborative team – you can expect to be working closely with designers and product managers as well as your fellow engineers. To support collaborative working, we work on-site at our office in Shoreditch, London, on Tuesdays and Wednesdays every week. We ship changes many times a day, and encourage engineers to be part of the full lifecycle of their work.

Our hiring process

Our interview process is all done remotely via video call. All candidates at Breakroom will first have:

  • An introduction call with one of our Talent Acquisition team
  • A screening call with one of the Breakroom engineers
  • A 1 hour take home exercise to be submitted to us ahead of your technical interview
  • A technical interview which will consist of reviewing and discussing the take home exercise, collaborating on an engineering problem, and other general technical questions
  • A “ways of working” interview with two people from other teams in Breakroom. This is the same interview for everyone regardless of the position being applied to

All being well, we’ll make you an offer!

  • Be motivated to work towards our mission
  • Have a thorough working knowledge of how to build for the web
  • Have in depth experience with a backend language such as Elixir, Ruby, Python or Node.JS
