Fraction | Frontend, Backend Engineers and Full Stack Developers | Full-Time | Vancouver, BC or Berkeley, CA | Onsite, Hybrid, or 100% Remote (your preference)

Looking for a new engineering position but dreading leetcode-style questions? Having flashbacks thinking about re-reading Cracking the Coding Interview? Apply to Fraction! Our engineering interview process has been described as "surprisingly humane". There's no leetcode questions, no all-day onsite interview gauntlet.

What's the work like?

Fraction is building a number of new and exciting technically-challenging projects that you will be one of the first people to work on. Since the company is so young (launched in February 2021!), there's lots of completely new projects, only some maintaining of existing projects, and absolutely no legacy code. Upcoming projects that you might be the one kickstarting include:

- An event system for managing asynchronous workflows.

- A payments system to enable Fraction's customers to make and receive payments.

- A dashboard for customers to interact with our platform, and another dashboard for our internal operations team to automate their workflows.

Although our stack is all Typescript, if you are backend-focused, we don't require experience with it (if you are frontend, we do expect you'll have experience with React, as it is part of our take-home challenge and you'd be unlikely to complete it successfully without that experience).

Fraction is a Series A fintech company. We've come out with the first truly innovative mortgage/HELOC product in the last couple decades. This isn't just a spin on a better application process, it's genuinely a new product in a new category to enable people to access the equity in their homes. Along with the new product, we are building our systems from the ground up to enable a better, faster, and more transparent user experience.
