Software Engineer

CoderPad is looking for a Software Developer to join its tech team in France. This is a full-time remote position reporting to the Director of Engineering EMEA.
What does a Full-Stack Developer do at CoderPad?
Over 4,000 customers across 165 countries. Thousands of technical interviews conducted every day — from live coding sessions to automated assessments. The CoderPad tech team builds the leading platform for evaluating technical skills: realistic, reliable, and designed with both recruiters and candidates in mind.
Our mission: to help every recruiter hire with confidence, and ensure every candidate has a fair and meaningful experience.

• Design and develop new full-stack features (React / TypeScript on the frontend, Java, Node.js, or Ruby on the backend) in collaboration with the Product Manager and the designer.

• Use AI coding assistants and agents (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) as a core part of your workflow — to accelerate feature delivery, automate repetitive engineering tasks, and offload boilerplate so you can focus on design and review.

• Contribute to architectural and technical design decisions within the team.

• Write automated tests and ensure code quality through code reviews.

• Deploy and monitor your own features in production (GitLab, AWS, Kubernetes).

• Contribute to the continuous improvement of the team’s engineering practices.
• 3+ years of experience in software development with strong technical skills.

• Strong communication and organizational skills.

• Proficiency in at least one backend language (Java, Ruby, Node.js), a modern frontend framework (ideally React), and SQL. You don’t need to master all technologies from day one.

• Hands-on experience leveraging AI tools to ship faster — code generation, agentic workflows, scripting/automation, or building internal tooling on top of LLMs. We care about how effectively you use these tools, not which ones.

• Professional proficiency in English (written and spoken). Fluency in French is required.
• Strong company values and culture: transparency, autonomy, and kindness.

• Fully remote work, with the option to enjoy office life, afterworks, and more if you’re based in Montpellier.

• Swile meal voucher card (€9 per day, 50% covered).

• Additional paid time off: your birthday + U.S. public holidays (around 10 days).

• Paternity/second parent leave fully covered for 12 weeks (after one year of tenure).

• Stock options with a 4-year vesting schedule.

• Salary: more or less €50,000 gross per year, depending on experience. If your salary expectations are higher, please discuss this matter early in the process.
• Introduction call with Mathilde, a member of the HR team (20 min)

• Online technical test on CoderPad (1 to 2 hours)

• Technical interview with two members of the tech team (1h30)

• A series of interviews with team members from other departments (1h30)

• Final discussion with Amanda, our CEO (30 min, in English)
