To succeed in this role, you should have at least 4 years of professional software engineering experience. The details of your tech background don’t matter as much as your ability to approach problems with curiosity and good judgment. We want people who can adjust when priorities shift and who see every new challenge as a chance to learn. Just as importantly, we value clear and respectful communication — the kind that involves both listening to feedback and offering it thoughtfully to help the whole team grow. In our culture, setbacks aren’t about blame, they’re about collaboration, problem-solving, and moving forward together.

If you don't have experience with everything in our tech stack still apply! We are willing to teach the right candidates and get them up to speed. Our tech stack is Elixir, Liveview, Postgres, Github, k8s & Terraform on Google Cloud.

What is the hiring process?

We have a 3 step hiring process and it takes about a week.

First, we’ll send a screening test where you’ll have 40 minutes to record your screen building a simple app.

Second, you’ll have 48 or 72 hours to build a real feature (as your own app) that we actually need. Anyone who successfully completes this challenge before the deadline will be paid $3,000. It must be a complete deployed & working app with all requirements met perfectly. If hired your first task will be to use your code to finish building the feature.

Finally, if your code looks good, our final step is a short chat with our CTO.

You can and should use AI to help you create this app. We are all in on the use AI and want someone who can make the most of it!
