Job description

The Product team builds features end-to-end. From designing our data models to implementing the subtle interaction behaviors that differentiate good software from great software. We work closely with UI designers and are supported by our infrastructure team. We aim to delight users with both large new features and smaller, daily product enhancements—thanks to our continuous deployment architecture. We want to create a superlative user experience, down to the smallest details.

We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer to join the Admin Foundations team in our Vancouver Office. The team plays a vital role in developing tools for Administrators to manage their Asana instance at Scale while establishing frameworks / patterns for Asana engineers to easily create admin controls for the features they develop.

Being part of this team will provide you with the opportunity to get a deep understanding of Asana’s administrative controls and permissions. This comes with an exposure to various other surfaces of the product that will enable you to work with different teams. You will also be working across different levels of our technical stack, from frontend tools like React to backend systems like the remote jobs framework.

This role is based in our Vancouver office with an office-centric hybrid schedule. The standard in-office days are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. Most Asanas have the option to work from home on Wednesdays. Working from home on Fridays depends on the type of work you do and the teams with which you partner. If you're interviewing for this role, your recruiter will share more about the in-office requirements.

What you’ll achieve :

  • Work in a high-performance, dynamic team with a strong focus on velocity and software quality
  • Contribute to building a complex SaaS application that is a market leader in its segment
  • Work closely with Product Managers, Designers and Engineers to deliver delightful software and tools for customers to help administer their Asana instance at scale.
  • Drive technical strategies that cross over other team surfaces and align with such teams and stakeholders to get buy-in and implement such strategies.
  • Make significant individual contributions by developing across the entire stack and leaving things better than you found them – this includes writing Typescript, Javascript and occasionally Scala.
  • Drive large, impactful projects, delivering features that will be rolled out and used in large organizations

About you :

  • Have 5+ years of software development experience with 2+ years mentoring / coaching other engineers on impactful software projects.
  • Experience working in ambiguous and complex technical spaces and creating clarity and alignment with partners and stakeholders.
  • Have a track record of designing and implementing solutions to complex business problems. You have skillfully influenced and got buy-in from stakeholders and other teams to adopt / implement these solutions.
  • Comfortable and autonomously debugging and fixing tricky issues in various parts of the software stack, particularly on the backend.
  • Have a strong breath of knowledge of software concepts and design patterns that you can comfortably apply to make technical solutions scalable and robust.
  • Have experience driving projects of medium to large complexity.
  • You have a continuous improvement mindset and are never satisfied with the status quo, whether it's about the architecture, the code or the team's processes
  • Demonstrates curiosity about AI tools and emerging technologies, with a willingness to learn and leverage them to enhance productivity, collaboration, or decision‑making.
  • At Asana, we're committed to building teams that include a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills, as this is critical to helping us achieve our mission. If you're interested in this role and don't meet every listed requirement, we still encourage you to apply.

    What we’ll offer :

    Our comprehensive compensation package plays a big part in how we recognize you for the impact you have on our path to achieving our mission. We believe that compensation should be reflective of the value you create relative to the market value of your role. To ensure pay is fair and not impacted by biases, we're committed to looking at market value which is why we check ourselves and conduct a yearly pay equity audit.

    For this role, the estimated base salary range is between $211,000 - $269,000 CAD. The actual base salary will vary based on various factors, including market and individual qualifications objectively assessed during the interview process. The listed range above is a guideline, and the base salary range for this role may be modified.

    In addition to base salary, your compensation package may include additional components such as equity, sales incentive pay (for most sales roles), and benefits.
