Novice Software Developer, API Reports To: Development Manager About the job: We’re looking for a self-motivated, curious, team minded Novice Developer, who wants to be part of the live-event space.

atVenu's proprietary software is used at some of the world’s most popular touring acts, festivals, and sporting events like Coachella, Bottlerock, Superbowl, Pokémon, PGA Championships, etc.

Novice Software Developers on our API team will be assigned specific tasks to complete, under the supervision of their leader or a more senior member of the development team.

This is a backend-focused role, working on atVenu's GraphQL API, with occasional frontend work.

It is our goal to advance our Novice Software Developers internally by providing them with clear objectives, strong mentorship, and challenging work.

You'll get to learn the ins and outs of atVenu's service offerings and their purpose, while getting exposure to all aspects of atVenu's proprietary software. Our Tech Stack: Backend: Ruby, Rails, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, CouchDB Frontend: React Native, React, JavaScript Cloud Platform: AWS Tools: GitHub, Sidekiq, Docker What you’ll do: Complete development tasks as assigned, under the supervision of your leader or an assigned partner or mentor.

Write code cleanly by observing existing patterns, code styles, and API conventions, and reproducing them to the best of your ability; with thought toward testability, readability, edge cases, and clear error handling.

Learn how our GraphQL schema, resolvers, and API conventions fit together, and contribute to them under guidance.

Help keep our onboarding materials and API documentation accurate and up to date, contributing improvements as you learn.

Write unit tests and test instructions for yourself and QA; experiment with Test Driven Development style.

Develop an awareness of API security basics, including authentication, authorization, input validation, and pagination, and learn why they matter for the data we expose.

Focus on debugging code through the systematic development and testing of hypotheses to rule out possibilities and zone in on problems and eventual fixes.

Work with Product and QA stakeholders to clarify and refine requirements and test cases; with guidance, figure out what problem needs solving.

Be a good, attentive pairing partner when being shown the ropes with more senior staff members.

Participate actively in pair programming as a regular part of how the team works.

Think proactively and stay committed to solving problems: do some homework before asking for help, think creatively while weighing the pros and cons of your recommendations, and apply lessons learned as you go.

What you’ll bring: Post-secondary education in computer science or a related field, or equivalent experience.

Minimal software development experience, but you can demonstrate a solid understanding of core CS fundamental concepts.

Curiosity about APIs and how systems talk to each other; any exposure to GraphQL, REST, Ruby on Rails, or React is a bonus, not a requirement.

Awareness of your professional limitations as an aspiring software developer; you know when to ask for help, when to stop work and get peer feedback, and the levels of approval required for your work to progress.

A keen willingness to learn and apply learnings as you go.

Natural curiosity, evident through the questions you ask and independent research on topics relevant to your role and projects.

Ability to analyze problems and propose solutions using facts and logic.

A genuine interest in the live event space, with curiosity, ownership, and a collaborative mindset.
