Senior Software Engineer
Company Summary
TOOLBX is building a construction materials platform that enables lumber & building material dealers to sell online. We make it easy for independent building suppliers to sell online, manage quotes, accept payments, and communicate with their contractors—all in one platform.
Here's why it matters:
- We see an opportunity for small businesses to play alongside the larger organizations. Our platform brings the big and the small of the supply chain for construction together.
- Over half of the world's solid waste comes from building and construction. We see an opportunity to drive planned orders and an on-demand supply chain to support buying only when you need it.
- Most construction projects are either over budget or over time because contractors can't optimize their material spending and are slow to compile invoices.
- The most significant purchase for any individual or family will likely be their home.
- TOOLBX helps make construction projects more efficient. We're focused on material procurement, and we're still in the first inning. You could be one of the early people that shape our strategy
