About Upright Labs

  • Upright Labs builds multichannel ecommerce software for retailers. We make it really easy for second-hand retailers to manage inventory and sell online, everywhere. Our software processes hundreds of thousands items each month and has helped retailers sell millions in inventory.
  • We work with second-hand goods retailers including Goodwill and Salvation Army. Our software powers their ecommerce operations and your code will directly impact their success.
  • Our stack is Rails on the backend with React.js, Redux and TypeScript on the frontend, backed by a Postgres DB. We run everything on AWS and Heroku, logging with LogDNA, CI with Github Actions, error tracking with Sentry, monitoring with Datadog, and source code on Github. We constantly evolve our stack and are always on the lookout for new exciting technologies.


You'll help our engineering team grow by helping us make foundational decisions in our product and technical directions. If you like to work on small teams with lots of autonomy and work closely with customers, then you'll be a great fit for Upright.
