Job description

Allocate is growing! There’s a lot for us to build and we need someone with a broad skill set who can jump right in to help us lay the technical foundation for the company’s future. We are passionate about delivering software that we are proud of while having fun developing it.

We are an AI-first engineering organization. Our engineers use AI coding tools as a core part of their daily workflow, from agentic development to code review, and we expect everyone to push the boundaries of what these tools can do.

Essential Responsibilities and Duties:

  • Leverage the latest web technologies to develop rich but simple user experiences for new products in development
  • Work with our product team to iterate on designs and user experience flows
  • Work as part of an independent, cross-functional squad to deliver critical retail and admin portal features across the technology stack
  • Build reusable, testable code that will help drive engineering maturity and efficiency, * Providing our clients with a world-class experience is our number one priority. We obsessively search for ways to improve the experience for our clients and partners. This requires extraordinary response times, proactivity, and ensuring that everything we do, from product strategy to offline communications is a top-tier client experience.
  • Challenge convention: Instead of detailing all the reasons why an idea may not work, we constantly question things to determine how a viable idea may be put into motion.
  • Commitment to continuous improvement: We find ways to personally scale each day by pushing ourselves up the learning curve.
  • Meritocracy, not politics: We place the utmost value on results and rewards through merit, not reward actions driven by political agendas or behavior.
  • Civil Discourse is embraced: We believe open, intellectually curious conversations are required to consistently arrive at the best decisions. Respect is paramount in our dealings with one another, but our mission is always to get the right answer collectively, not to be right.
  • Embrace technological change: We adopt tools and techniques that make us faster, smarter, and better. We stay open to innovation, especially around AI and automation, and drop outdated methods without hesitation. Complacency kills progress, we value adaptability and curiosity.

Requirements

Do you have a Bachelor’s degree?, * 5-10 years of experience building web applications

  • 3-5 years of experience using Vue.Js front-end framework
  • 1-3 years of experience with TypeScript
  • Experience delivering frontend software that is correct, stable, and security compliant
  • Autonomy and ownership - can work without supervision
  • AI-first development mindset. Comfortable using tools like Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex as a primary part of your workflow, not an occasional assist

  • Attention to detail and an understanding of what makes a good user experience
  • Ability to participate in a Git-based development environment with standard work management tooling
  • Basic understanding of common AWS services (S3, CloudFront, etc) and how they can be applied to solve business problems
  • Entrepreneurial spirit. You are self-directed, innovative, and biased towards action in fast-paced environments. You love to build new things and thrive in ambiguity and even failure
