Junior Software Engineer

**Location Qualifications:** Fully remote. Work from anywhere in the Minneapolis area. **About the position** As an L1 Software Engineer at Showpad, you're joining at a foundational level — and that's intentional. We hire for trajectory, not perfection. You'll work within a collaborative engineering team, executing tasks with guidance, solving well-scoped problems, and deepening your understanding of what it takes to build great software at scale. Your goal is to understand Showpad's codebase and systems, sharpen your computer science fundamentals, and progress quickly in your journey as a software engineer. You'll never be left to figure things out alone. **Why Showpad** Real product, real impact. Ship code to a live SaaS platform used by enterprise sales teams globally. Your work reaches customers from day one. Mentorship built in. Dedicated pair programming with senior engineers. Code reviews designed to teach, not just gatekeep. **Key Responsibilities** - Write clean, modular, and maintainable code on prescribed tasks — with guidance from your team — and grow into tackling more complex problems over time. - Adopt a test-first mindset from day one: unit tests and end-to-end coverage are part of how you ship, not an afterthought. - Follow CI/CD and monitoring practices, learning to spot and troubleshoot basic issues in a real production environment. - Participate in code reviews — your questions are just as valuable as your answers at this stage. - Contribute across the full SDLC: from design discussions to deployment, you'll touch every phase of how software gets built. - Communicate proactively about your work status so the team stays aligned and unblocked. - Pair program with more experienced engineers, especially on bug fixing and domain exploration. - Use internal and external resources to solve problems, and proactively seek guidance from senior engineers when needed. **Are you our next Junior Engineer?** We don't expect you to know our stack on day one. Here's what sets the strongest candidates apart: - Solid computer science fundamentals — data structures, algorithms, and how systems work under the hood. - Exposure to at least one object-oriented or functional programming language. - A working understanding of version control (Git) and collaborative development workflows. - Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and automated testing concepts (even if you haven't used them extensively yet). - Strong written and verbal communication — you can explain your thinking clearly in a PR comment or a standup. - A growth mindset: you actively seek feedback, apply it, and show up curious every day. - Comfort with ambiguity — you can ask good clarifying questions and document decisions as you go. **Company Highlights:** Welcome to the new era of revenue effectiveness.
