Backend Software Engineer

We heard you might be looking for a new opportunity! Cartloop might be the perfect stop for you.

Cartloop is an ecommerce startup that's changing the way people interact with brands. Instead of flat automated messages (or chat bots), we are helping brands grow by creating super-personalized experiences throughout the entire shopping journey.

The coolest thing is we are growing quickly and possibly have the perfect position for you. 🚀

Cartloop is helping brands win the hearts of their customers by providing a tool that creates personal relationships at scale. To provide a missing pillar of core eCommerce experience, we're building a team of people who are ready to take on some of the most interesting challenges in the industry.

Here are some of our core values to give you a sense of who we are as a team:

• Ownership. We build, we celebrate and we take responsibility even when things don't pan out.

• Set the pace. We move fast, take risks, and chase big outcomes wherever possible. We’re creating an environment where we can act fearlessly, a consensus isn’t needed for every action, and experimentation and failure (plus learning) are key.

• Autonomy. We unblock ourselves, focus on solutions and work towards our goals.

• Honor execution. Fewer meetings, less of the stuff things that don't make an impact, more action. Move fast and focus on execution instead of talking.

• Continuous feedback. We are open to feedback and make a habit of sharing feedback with others.

• Writing > talking. We’re creating a culture where people can do their best critical thinking and use data to solve problems.
