About Lattice

Lattice is on a mission to build cultures where employees and their companies thrive.  In an age where innovation is happening all around us, there's commonality – people are driving these changes. We offer a solution that helps companies put employees first. Lattice is a people management tool that offers performance reviews, employee engagement surveys, real-time feedback, weekly check-ins, and goal setting in a way that allows companies to focus on employee development, growth, and engagement. Since launching in 2016 we have grown to over 1,900 customers globally, including brands like Slack, Reddit, Glossier, and Asana. 

We’re a small and impactful team of engineers continuously working to better both our product and our craft. We use a modern, cutting-edge tech stack and love experimenting with new technologies. We strive for maintainable, robust, and performant code. We're highly collaborative and continuously iterative and work closely with designers and product managers. We prioritize not only great technical architecture but also an amazing product experience.

Why Lattice? 

As we are growing the number and size of customers we support, the scope of products we offer, and the size of the engineering team, we are running into a number of scaling challenges. In helping us tackle these challenges, a great candidate will have a strong impact on our business. These challenges include breaking apart our monolithic architecture and creating the tools to empower each product team to develop autonomously. As we do so, we will build tools and standards that create a cohesive experience for our customers and high-efficiency engineering team.

• We invest in the personal and professional growth of every employee because we believe growth leads to both business impact and personal fulfillment
• The opportunity to join an experienced and ambitious team that is passionate about solving customers’ needs and loves coming to work every day
• Partner with 1,800+ companies around the world to make sure their employees are engaged and performing at a high level
• A culture that encourages and promotes professional growth and development, with continuous learning reimbursements
• Competitive salary, equity, and benefits
