📢 Our intentional hiring process We know that "hiring processes" can sometimes feel like a black box. At ZOE, we aim for a process that is efficient, insightful, and enjoyable. It’s a two-way street: we want to get to know the real you, and we want you to get a true feel for life at ZOE.

• The "Meet & Greet" with Talent (45 min) First up, a deep-dive chat with one of our Talent partners. Think of this as a "look under the hood"—we’ll explore your journey so far, what gets you excited about our mission, and make sure we’re aligned on the essentials like compensation, logistics, and right-to-work.
• The Hiring Manager "Jam Session" (45 min) Next, you’ll meet an Engineering Manager. This isn't just a tick-box exercise; it’s an intentional session where we talk shop. We’ll dive into your technical approach and behavioural experience to see how you’ll thrive in our team, while giving you a front-row seat to our engineering culture and vision.
• The Remote Loop (The Final Stretch) We’ve grouped our final interviews into a "loop" (usually over Google Meet) to give us a 360-degree view of your brilliance. It consists of three distinct sessions:
• Live Coding (60 min): Let’s build something! We’ll collaborate on a problem to see how you think, code, and iterate in real-time.
• System Design (60 min): The "big picture" talk. We’ll chat about how you architect scalable systems and navigate those tricky technical trade-offs.
• Leadership & Values (60 min): Beyond the code. We want to hear about your collaborative style, how you lift others up, and what ZOE’s mission means to you.
• The "Becoming a ZOEntist" Moment If we’re a match, we won’t leave you hanging. We’ll reach out quickly to discuss an offer and start planning how we can welcome you to the team. 🚀

🚀 Ready to thrive? We want to hear from you

The experience, skills, and attributes we’ve outlined are what we believe will help someone truly thrive in this role.

However, we understand that talent comes in many forms. If you are genuinely excited about ZOE's mission and this opportunity, please don't hesitate to apply —even if you don't meet every single requirement listed.

We fundamentally value potential and commitment above all else. We are dedicated to fostering growth and providing opportunities for you to learn and develop alongside us.
