About the Role
We are seeking a software engineer to join our team of senior members. Senior members consult with Gun.io portfolio clients who require technical expertise and partnership beyond the standard engagement of a Gun.io freelancer.

An ideal candidate:
- Has experience building greenfield software products as the key technical decision-maker
- Has experience building and leading software teams
- Is currently or has previously worked with clients as an independent contractor
- Preference for Partner, Innovator, or Artisan Workstyles (you can take an assessment here: https://app.gun.io/work-styles/new/)
Preferred Skill Mastery
- Deep knowledge of and experience with the entire software development lifecycle
- Deep experience with modern frontend and/or backend frameworks and tooling (yes, this is vague—we are open to all)
- Proficiency in a systems language such as C, C++, Rust, or Python
- Excellent remote communication skills
- Proficiency in version control—preferably git.
