About The Position

The Shipping team is responsible for providing our buyers and sellers with a first-class shipping experience. We connect a global community of musicians, providing buyers with competitive prices, equipping sellers with the tools they need to optimize their shipping, and protecting both buyers and sellers throughout the entire process. It’s a crucial part of shopping on Reverb, and the team is dedicated to every aspect of it. We're looking for a full-stack engineer to join our team. You'll work across our Rails app, React frontend, and GraphQL gateway, touching every piece of the shipping experience from buyer-facing UIs to seller configuration tools to vendor integrations. You'll collaborate closely with other full-stack and mobile engineers, product, and design to deliver the shipping features that make Reverb the best place to buy and sell gear. This is a full-time, hybrid role based in Chicago, IL. Local employees meet weekly at our Salt Shed office, and we all come together for quarterly org onsites and our yearly Reverbfest.
