Hazel Analytics | Senior Software Engineer, Engineering Manager | Seattle, WA | ONSITE HYBRID NO-VISA | https://hazelanalytics.com

Hazel Analytics provides data and analytics services to food service/retail companies and related industries, working to improve food safety compliance. Half of the 100 largest food retail chains use Hazel technology, and we proudly count Uber Eats, Instacart, Target, and Starbucks among our customers. In 2019, we won two food safety innovation awards, and we still have big ambitions to keep advancing the state of the art in food safety management. We're also honored to have been recognized by Built in Seattle — two years in a row — as one of Seattle's best small businesses to work for.

We're currently seeking an engineering manager to lead a team of 5-6 software engineers, working predominantly on our data collection, data quality, and data sharing initiatives. The role will blend a strong focus on people support and team growth with near-term project support and medium-term roadmap planning. An engineering manager will be exclusive to a single team, so you can build strong working relationships, invest in your team's success, and execute on your vision for operational excellence.

We also have an opening for a senior software engineer. Our tech stack is largely Python on the backend and React on the frontend; PostgreSQL is our primary data store, and we're deployed on Google Cloud. The team culture is light on meetings and focused in our use of processes, so that engineers can have plenty of time to focus on doing what they do best. Engineers have excellent ownership over the platform and visibility into business decisions that guide product direction and have ample opportunities to add their own influence, at both strategic and operational scales.

> We're also hiring a Product Manager and VP of Sales! It's a great time to join as we're embarking on a massive scale-up for customer growth.

Our team culture is laid-back and friendly, balanced by a strong sense of personal ownership and motivation to deliver; we're a small company with close collaboration among all roles.

Please refer to our job postings for salary ranges. Total compensation includes equity, year-end bonus, and a generous benefits package (including parental leave). Our current plan is to adopt a hybrid model of "minimum 2 days/week in office" starting in 2022; although we're currently remote and will be adjusting plans according to public health developments, we're not presently looking for long-term remote hires on the engineering side. We aren't able to provide H1B sponsorship; relocation assistance within the United States is negotiable.
