Meet Benevity
The world’s coolest companies (and their employees) use Benevity’s technology to take social action on the issues they care about. Through giving, volunteering, grantmaking, employee resource groups and micro-actions, we help most of the Fortune 100 brands build better cultures and use their power for good. We’re also one of the first B Corporations in Canada, meaning we’re as committed to purpose as we are to profits. We have people working all over the world, including Canada, Spain, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States and more!
Benevity’s software architecture has evolved to include a diverse technology stack. The front-end application, using mainly VueJS,
is designed for both desktop and mobile web rendering. Our back-end systems (some Java SpringBoot, some PHP) manage data processing, interfaces with external providers, and ensures robust security. We run and operate our systems in the AWS cloud, leveraging where possible cloud-native technology. We emphasize clean, maintainable code and use GIT for version control and collaboration. Additionally, our platform integrates with various external services for functionalities like email communication, content storage, and server-to-server interactions.

achieve stellar execution of our business goals and social mandate, and ensure Benevity-ites thrive. For those who live within a reasonable commuting distance to an office, we can split our time working in the office and from home to optimize the opportunities of both, with the requirement that we spend at least 50% of the time in the office.
