12twenty is an ed-tech company based in Santa Monica that’s changing the way university career centers, students, and employers approach recruiting.
Through its suite of SaaS web apps, 12twenty provides universities and employers with a platform to better connect students, career centers, and employers. Our mission is to equip universities with a platform that revolutionizes productivity and connections, enabling students and alumni to advance their careers and employers to hire quality and diverse talent. We work on an extremely diverse set of features, modules, and integrations, including oauth, calendar sync, payments, apple wallet / android pay. We are continuously building new features and improving existing ones in the context of a relatively large and long-running mostly monolithic codebase that we are also continuously refactoring and improving.

We work in two week sprints, but deliver continuously. Our engineering team currently consists of ten devs, broken up into two subteams. Developers work closely with their teammates and the Product team to ensure we build with usability, maintainability, and scalability in mind. We put a strong emphasis on quality, automated testing, and clean code.
1. Iterate upcoming stories with Product and the team
2. Engineer and lead work through a design review as needed for higher-level design decisions
3. Engineer develops and thoroughly tests their own code, via both manual and automated tests
4. Code is reviewed, first by a peer, then by the lead before it can be merged
5. QA team manually tests the story
6. Code is deployed twice a week or as needed
The majority of our code is in a single solution with dozens of projects. While the codebase and architecture is mostly monolithic, we do have a few microservices as well. Infrastructure: mostly on Azure, including App Services, SQL Database, Service Bus, Redis, Functions, Virtual Machines. We also use Cloudflare and AWS S3.
Tools we use: GitHub, JIRA, Confluence, Slack, and GSuite for our day-to-day tasks.
Our tech stack: C# (.NET Framework 4.72), Web API, MVC, AngularJs, Typescript, HTML, Less, Sql Server, Dapper, EF, and other technologies, including some legacy jquery and knockoutjs.
We are a small team working on a large number of modules and integrations across the platform, including job postings, on campus interviews, events, appointments, custom reporting, analytics, calendar sync, and single sign on. We are continuously refactoring and improving the existing codebase, implementing design patterns and best practices as much as possible to build scalable infrastructure that is manageable and maintainable. However, our codebase is relatively large and long running. There is a lot to refactor and many patterns to consolidate. We are always balancing delivering direct value to the customer with repaying technical debt and ensuring we build for the long-term.
● New products built on top of our framework within our existing platform, including a rebuild of our student-facing outcome analytics platform (which has helped some schools close the gender wage gap for post graduation offers!) and extensive improvements to our alumni platform to help alumni connect and network.
● Product enhancements to existing modules and features, which may include extensive refactors
● Infrastructure improvements within Azure to ensure security, scalability, high availability, and general reliability (e.g. scaling out our database, making better use of Redis and Service Bus, and improvements with observability and monitoring)
● Better reorganize code and dependencies to better encapsulate modules
● Upgrade to .NET 7 from .NET Framework
● Rewrite our AngularJS code in the latest version of React
● Communication: offer suggestions, ask questions, be open; give and expect honesty, transparency, empathy, and respect
● Collaboration: work together to find the best solutions
● Continuous Learning and Improvement: always be looking for opportunities to improve both yourself and our product/code/team
