Why this role?

You’ll work on production systems, own projects end-to-end, and ship improvements quickly. We value curiosity, solid judgment, and thoughtful communication. When priorities shift, you adapt. When things break, you collaborate to fix them and move forward—no blame, just learning.

What you’ll do

• Design, build, and ship production features across our stack.
• Write clean, well-tested code and participate in code reviews.
• Collaborate on architecture, reliability, and performance.
• Use AI tools aggressively to speed up exploration, coding, and QA.
• Document decisions and communicate clearly in an async-friendly way.

Our stack

Elixir, Phoenix LiveView, Postgres, GitHub, Kubernetes, Terraform, Google Cloud.

Don’t know all of it? That’s okay. If you meet the experience bar and learn quickly, we’ll help you get up to speed.

What we’re looking for

• 6+ years of professional software engineering experience.
• Track record of shipping and maintaining production systems.
• Pragmatic problem-solving and product sense.
• Clear, respectful written and verbal communication.
• Comfort working independently and collaborating across time zones.

Nice to have

• Elixir/Phoenix LiveView in production.
• Postgres performance tuning and observability experience.
• Infra familiarity (GCP, k8s, Terraform) and CI/CD.
• Security, reliability, and testing discipline.

Contract & flexibility

• $30–$60/hr (contractor).
• Fully remote — work any hours from anywhere.
• Async-first culture; fast review cycles; small, focused projects.

Hiring process (note we are hiring multiple engineers for this role until the end of the year)

1. Screening build (40 min): Record your screen while building a simple app.

2. Paid feature challenge (48 or 72 hrs): Build a real feature.

• $3,000 if you successfully complete it before the deadline.
• Must be deployed, working, and meet all requirements precisely.

3. Final chat with our CTO: Short conversation on your approach, trade-offs, and collaboration style.

Our Culture

Excellence here isn’t defined by code alone. We hire for technical ability, but equally for empathy, curiosity, and the humility to learn from others. We want teammates who can share ideas respectfully, give and receive feedback thoughtfully, and lift the whole team higher. At the same time, we work with focus and efficiency rather than long hours. We want you to sharpen your craft and ship meaningful work, while still protecting the time you need for family, health, and the rest of life.
