Role Overview Job Title:
Software Developer - Backend
Job Type:
Full-Time W2 Employee
Reports To:
VP of Technology
Location:
Omaha, NE HQ (Hybrid: Office + Work From Home)
Compensation:
$75,000 - $85,000 Base Salary Range + Up to a $15,300 Incentive Bonus
Step into the role of Software Developer and help build the technology that powers Franchise Sidekick’s mission: helping people live life on their terms through business ownership.
This is not just a ticket-taking role. This is a role for someone who wants to solve real business problems, build dependable systems, and contribute to software that directly supports our candidates, consultants, and internal teams.
You will work closely with the Software Architect and Technology team to design, build, improve, and maintain backend systems that keep Team Sidekick moving. Your work will support the tools, workflows, integrations, and data processes that help our team guide future franchise owners through a smarter and more confident buying journey.
You will be responsible for writing clean, reliable code, improving existing systems, supporting integrations, and helping turn business needs into thoughtful technical solutions. You’ll collaborate with team members across the company to understand problems, ask good questions, and build software that is practical, maintainable, and valuable.
Your mission is clear: build strong backend systems, improve the tools our team depends on, and help Franchise Sidekick scale with technology that is stable, thoughtful, and built to last.
Backend Development & Feature Delivery — 60%
Build and maintain backend features that support Franchise Sidekick’s internal tools, workflows, and user-facing systems
Translate business needs into practical technical solutions with support from the Software Architect and Technology team
Write clean, readable, and maintainable code that fits existing architecture and development standards
Develop APIs, services, business logic, and backend processes that help Team Sidekick operate more efficiently
Collaborate with other team members to understand requirements, clarify edge cases, and deliver reliable software
Support feature development from planning through implementation, review, testing, and release
System Maintenance, Refactoring & Technical Quality — 20%
Improve existing systems by reducing complexity, cleaning up legacy code, and strengthening maintainability
Identify and resolve bugs, performance issues, and technical debt that affect team productivity or system reliability
Follow established coding patterns and contribute to a consistent, organized codebase
Help improve backend architecture over time by suggesting practical improvements and thoughtful refactors
Monitor the health of existing features and support fixes when issues arise
Integrations, Data Flow & Automation — 10%
Build and maintain integrations with third-party tools, internal systems, and external data sources
Support reliable movement of data between systems, including imports, exports, synchronization, and background processes
Help automate repetitive workflows to reduce manual work and improve operational efficiency
Troubleshoot integration issues and partner with the team to keep data accurate, timely, and useful
Technical Learning & Process Improvement — 10%
Continuously build knowledge of Franchise Sidekick’s systems, tools, architecture, and business model
Stay curious about better ways to build, test, maintain, and support software
Contribute ideas that improve development workflows, team communication, and overall engineering quality
Take ownership of personal growth while helping create a stronger, more capable Technology team
A Day In The Life No two days will look exactly the same—and that’s part of what makes this role meaningful.
One day, you might be building a new backend feature that helps Team Sidekick move faster or gives our internal teams better access to the information they need. The next day, you may be improving an existing workflow, cleaning up code, or troubleshooting an issue that is slowing down a process.
You’ll work closely with the Software Architect and Technology team to understand priorities, clarify requirements, and turn business needs into practical technical solutions. You may spend time designing APIs, writing backend logic, supporting data flows between systems, or improving the reliability and maintainability of existing tools.
Throughout the week, you’ll collaborate with team members across Franchise Sidekick to better understand how our technology supports the business. You’ll ask thoughtful questions, think through edge cases, and help make sure the systems we build are useful, stable, and built with care.
Whether you’re shipping a new feature, improving an integration, fixing a bug, or strengthening the foundation of our codebase, your work will directly support Team Sidekick’s ability to help more people explore business ownership with confidence.
This Role Might Be A Good Fit For You If You...
Have 2–5 years of software development experience, ideally with backend
Have experience using AI coding assistants and agent‑based development workflows to meaningfully increase development velocity, automate repetitive tasks, and improve software delivery
Enjoy building practical software that solves real business problems and supports internal teams
Are comfortable communicating with non‑technical team members to understand needs, clarify requirements, and ask thoughtful questions
Can take business context and turn it into clean, useful technical solutions
Are adaptable and willing to learn new languages, frameworks, tools, and systems as the business evolves
Are interested in learning Ruby on Rails, even if you have not worked with it professionally before
Have experience with Ruby on Rails, Python, Django, PostgreSQL, APIs, or backend development concepts — or are excited to grow in those areas
Care about writing readable, maintainable code that fits within an existing codebase
Are comfortable working in a small team where priorities can shift and your work has visible impact
Enjoy improving existing systems, not just building brand‑new features from scratch
Think through edge cases, ask good questions, and want to understand the “why” behind the work
Take ownership of your work from clarification through implementation, review, testing, and release
Are curious about how technology can make teams more efficient, reduce manual work, and help a growing company scale

Successfully complete assigned development work with clear communication, thoughtful questions, and attention to detail
Contribute to backend feature development, system improvements, bug fixes, or integrations that create real value for the team
Demonstrate adaptability by learning new tools, frameworks, and processes as needed — including Ruby on Rails if it is new to you
Communicate effectively with the Software Architect, Technology team, and non‑technical stakeholders to clarify needs and understand business context
Earn trust as a dependable member of a small Technology team by being curious, collaborative, and accountable
