About Barley
Compensation accounts for up to 70% of an organization’s total operating costs, yet the processes and tools used to determine who gets paid what, why, and how is still painfully convoluted and manual. How is this possible? Believe it or not, most companies are still using a dizzying amount of spreadsheets that ultimately leaves leadership guessing and the employees puzzled or worse yet, unfairly compensated.
Barley is a venture-backed startup focused on building solutions for a vast array of compensation challenges (from managing salary bands to conducting pay equity analysis). With Barley’s Compensation Management platform, our goal is to empower organizations to make better pay decisions.
Hybrid Across Two Hiring Hubs: Barley is a remote-first company that supports a flexible approach to work. Our team is co-located across two hiring hubs (Toronto and Vancouver and up to 200kms away from either). While we all predominately work remotely (i.e. work from home), we offer dedicated offices in both Toronto and Vancouver so that our team can collaborate and come together in-person, as desired.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Solving technical challenges and building features as we work towards growing the Barley platform
- Collaborating closely with other engineers and product in an agile environment
- Building with a strong orientation towards data schemas, analytics, and database design
- Taking initiative to understand “the why” of what you’re building, the business context, and user problems to propose improvements, eliminate gaps, and reduce risk
Experience & Skills You'll Bring to the Team
- Strong foundational knowledge of software development
- Relentless curiosity to learn new things and receptive to feedback
- Experience with modern web application development, using TypeScript (or JavaScript), ReactJS, GraphQL, Node.js Vite, NestJS, and/or Hasura
- Experience with schema design and relational databases such as PostgreSQL
- Professional experience shipping cloud-based software products to market is a PLUS
- Experience with cloud and serverless infrastructure (GCP, AWS or Azure) is a PLUS
- Hands-on experience with microservices, containerization (Docker), and CI/CD (Github Actions) is a PLUS
- Haven’t worked with some of our specific technologies? No problem, a deep experience with web technologies and willingness to learn our tech stack goes a long way
Why You’ll Love Working at Barley
- As an early member of the Barley team, you’ll play a key role in setting the stage for future employees
- You’ll help push forward an important mission of driving more rational and equitable pay
- You’ll have a piece of the pie - every Barley employee participates in our stock option plan
- A generous vacation policy and full health and benefits coverage that kick in on your first day
- An annual learning and development allowance to invest in your professional growth
- We're a remote-first company, but also have offices in Toronto and Vancouver for the option to collaborate in-person
- We host fun company-sponsored events (e.g. team dinners) as well as multi-day off sites (like our retreats which have been cabins in Whistler, BC and Ontario lake country)
