CampusOptics is an environmental health and safety platform for universities. We're hitting product market fit, quickly adding customers, and looking to add another product engineer to our engineering team of 5.
Most importantly, you're excited to work in a close-knit team to build features without bureaucracy and make a big impact in our Rails/Hotwire application. And you'll influence a product that makes a material impact on campus safety. The ideal candidate would have UI/UX/product sensibilities, and we're open to all levels of seniortiy.
I'm a founder, the CTO, and the hiring manager for this role. I got my professional start on "Who's Hiring March 2011", so I'm partial to candidates from here :)
CampusOptics is building a first-of-its-kind campus safety platform for distributed campuses, starting in higher education.
A key piece of our strategy is our mobile application, built in React Native¹. We'd like to find an engineer to join us and serve as the linchpin of the mobile app going forward and take the lead on continued development. You'll walk into a high-quality codebase that's easy to work with, but you'll have something between input and autonomy on everything from lint configuration to testing strategy to product direction.
We're a small team with big goals and lots of experience. We'd love to find someone excited to join early and eager to help lay the foundation for our practices, product, team, and codebase.
Email me (I'm a cofounder, the CTO, and the hiring manager) at jcody@campusoptics.com to hear more or start a conversation.
1 - We're confident you can quickly get from here to there with some support from our end if you're interested in React Native but have only worked in React.

We're looking for a second engineer to work alongside me to advance the foundation of the product, the codebase, and engineering team. Ideally, you'd be willing to work the full stack, and you'd be working in Rails, StimulusJS, React Native, AWS, Terraform, and Postgres.

CampusOptics (https://campusoptics.com) is building the first comprehensive fire safety software platform specifically for higher education. Schools have a high regulatory bar to meet for fire safety compliance, and the consequence of failure can be dire.
Since our previous post (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20869425), we've built a Rails app and an iOS app and are working with a handful of initial development partner schools to iterate and get feedback. Our 8-person team has deep higher ed experience, and the need for our product has outstripped our expectations. Now we're looking for an additional engineer to help us keep building it out.
Out of the gates, we've relied heavily on Swift, Rails, PostgreSQL, Turbolinks, StimulusJS, Terraform, and AWS. These are technologies that have enabled us to develop large amounts of value as quickly as possible, while maintaining a high bar for quality.
The two of us in engineering today are generalists with a commitment to quality and understanding, and we'd love if you were as well. That means you don’t already need to be an expert at all of technologies we're using, but a firm command of some and a desire to learn is necessary.
In the near-term future, this will be a heavily product-focused role. You'll primarily be working on the web and potentially working on features like representing complex policies and fire standards in code, working with geospatial data to assist inspectors in the field, and creating visualizations of the state of fire safety on campus. And we aim to do all of these things with code that is well-factored, well-tested, and able to scale with our customer base over time.
I'm biased, but I think it's a great chance to be apart of building something great from early on :) Email me at jcody@campusoptics.com if you'd like to learn more or talk about whether there might be a fit.
