WorkHQ
Head of Engineering
Job Location
Los Angeles, CA, United States
Job Description
WorkHQ is building a career platform for employees and recruiter built on the principles of data openness, quantitative evaluation, and self-improvement. The core of the platform is a data augmentation and analytics layer that helps users visualize an individual’s “human capital” with a single, intelligible score. A user’s WorkHQ score quantifies their work experience and education, and is further enriched by proprietary data signals from WorkHQ to provide a holistic ranking of professionals in the same functional role.
Our goal is to help all users understand how everyone “stacks up” without having to parse individual resumes or LinkedIn profiles and ask for referrals or recommendations.
Our company has raised $26M to date–although we are still pre-product. We have a remote global engineering team of 13 at the moment. Company leadership is based in Los Angeles.
We are a fast moving startup that takes pride in a fast iteration style and transparency. We want to work with high-energy do-ers with heavy bias for action.
Responsibilities
Salary Range: $210,000 to $280,000
