As a Lead Software Engineer at Hirevue, you’ll be a key player in making software happen, from the early design stages to the hands of our users. You will be empowered to influence how our products are forged for real world value.

You’ll be in a very hands-on development role collaborating with your team to enhance and extend the leading Hirevue platform. Your focus will be designing solutions, writing quality code with unit tests, leading other engineers by example and solving technical challenges that will continue improving the experience of our users. You will become a key contributor to the codebase willing to work in any area of the code when needed.

Our ability to deliver quality software to our customers in a timely, predictable manner will be directly attributable to your capacity to identify and address challenges faced by the initiatives you will be leading.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

This is why HireVue developed its comprehensive hiring platform, leveraging video interviewing, AI-powered assessments, and conversational AI to transform the way organizations discover, engage, and hire the best talent. Our customers understand that people are more than just bullet points on a resume, a founding principle of HireVue since 2004. We empower hiring teams to move beyond solely relying on credentials and instead gain deeper insights into a candidate's capabilities, skills, and potential.
