It's time to build. Whether it's creating more housing, upgrading our infrastructure, or adapting to climate change, one thing is clear: the construction industry is at the center of solving our biggest problems. We're making buildings cheaper and easier to build by transforming the way commercial construction companies buy their materials. Join us.
Founded in 2018, Kojo is now one of the fastest-growing construction technology companies in the world. Construction accounts for $10 trillion in global spend annually and we can't live without its output - our roads, schools, hospitals, and offices. Despite this, there's been very little innovation over the past 70 years in how materials - which constitute up to 40% of project costs - are bought and sold. This is our opportunity.
We're hiring a Software Engineer, Vendor Integrations to join our high-impact crew. This role is a great fit for a detail-oriented individual contributor who understands how important it is to troubleshoot effectively and keep things running smoothly to support our customers' needs.

- Being an integral part of building engineering, product, and company roadmaps
- Co-owing the delivery of a product that transforms the construction industry
- Processing and surfacing pricing and availability information that enable our customers to keep their projects on-time and under budget
- Innovating and architecting the pipelines which millions of dollars worth of orders rely on to get fulfilled
- Frequent communication and collaboration with our vendor partners to establish connections, standards, and onboarding of new customers
- Proven track record of shipping quality software (3+ years professional experience preferred)
- Deep experience working with React, Typescript, GraphQL/REST, Node, Elasticsearch, and PostgreSQL or similar tech stack
- Comfortable with AWS technologies, such as RDS, EC2, S3, SQS, Beanstalk, Lambda, and other common services
- Inside knowledge of HTTP, FTP, WebSockets, or other networking protocols
- B.S. in CS or a related field, or equivalent experience
- Bonus: Experience integrating with third-party APIs, working with ERP or construction software, and/or familiarity with Datadog, Sentry, or other application/platform monitoring systems
- Extra Bonus: Any experience or familiarity with EDI X12 transactions
What you care about:
