Engineering at BringFido

The BringFido engineering team builds the BringFido.com website, apps for iOS and Android, and our data pipelines. We’re responsible for UI execution, data modeling, search engine presence, performance, PCI-level security, accessibility, and internal tools for our customer support agents and content writers.

We care a lot about clean code, conventions, semantics, and simplicity. These habits give us the environment we need to serve millions of monthly visitors with a small engineering team.

Our headquarters is in lovely Greenville, SC, but this is a remote position; we follow a location-independent workflow. Experience with remote collaboration and self-management is important. We use Slack, GitHub, and Shortcut, and we travel for in-person working meetups.

Finally, we love animals and travel. Several BringFido employees are involved with animal care organizations, and many of us have been taking crazy adventures with our pets over the last decade. If you’re a dog person, you’ll fit right in.
