Software Engineer - Data Integrations and API Lead

Binti’s mission is to increase equality of opportunity and help every person have a fair chance at life.  With over 400,000 youth in foster care in the United States, we are reinventing child welfare through technology to help every child find a safe, loving, and stable family. We partner with state, county, and private foster care agencies around the country, helping them recruit and approve foster parents more quickly and empowering social workers by eliminating administrative paperwork. Our software also helps match families with children and helps track services to biological families to get on their feet and reunify with their children. Binti currently works with over 140 foster care agencies across 22 states. Rhode Island, New Mexico, Hawaii, and Washington have signed on to make our software their statewide solution. 

Our goal is to be the end-to-end modular child welfare data system solution. Our Approvals and Placements modules are widely used and have significantly improved outcomes.  Agencies working with us have approved 80% more families on average in their first year of using Binti, with a 16% reduction in time to approve and 20-40% savings in social worker time. Our Case Management module is completing a pilot with our existing agencies and will be more widely available very soon. We are also expanding our team to further develop 3 additional modules.

Binti is a mission-driven software company based in Oakland, CA. We have raised our Series A led by Founders Fund and other investors include First Round Capital and Kapor Capital.

Since Binti’s launch in 2017, we have been scaling rapidly, launching modules with new agencies every week, facilitating efficient work, protecting children, and collecting critical data to improve outcomes in child welfare. Most of Binti’s customers in the government space have legacy data systems that are often antiquated but hold vital data for their operations. Federal requirements mandate that they collect key data on an ongoing basis, and also integrate and exchange data with other systems. Other systems have varying levels of clean data and technical experience. This role is critical to building and designing our API and data import processes, as well as having a strong voice in our overall data design and infrastructure.  This includes designing and building out APIs and other Integration features to enable Binti to succeed in the current social welfare software ecosystem.

In order to support a platform that can be integrated with state systems that differ by state, we have built and maintain an API. As our Integration Engineer, you will:
