Senior Software Developer (Full Stack;Next.js) - remote

Codeti Studio

Posted 1 year ago

We're a small, rapidly growing software agency looking to add another senior-level software developer to our team to help balance our workloads.

About us (the good and the bad

We're a team of 3.5, so pretty small.
We're all developers here, so we understand that estimates aren't always accurate, software takes time, and sometimes things take more time than initially expected - all par for the course.
We're a services company, so there's a wide variety of different things you'd be working on, and there are often changes in priorities from week-to-week and month-to-month.
We do a mix of ground-up development for startups (creating new web apps from scratch), automation work, and work on existing codebases.
A lot of our work is MVP &product-focused, meaning we often value shipping small, functional, but imperfect pieces of functionality rather than highly-scalable subsystems.
Our primary tech is Next.js (v13 with pages directory), Vercel, React, Typescript, Prisma, PostgreSQL, Twilio, Sendgrid, and NextAuth;but we occasionally have work that veers into Python, Flutter, Rust, Node.js, AWS (mainly lambdas and s3), VBA, Zapier, and Airtable (I try to steer us away from Airtable though).
We don't do any work at all in RoR, Go, or a slew of other languages.
We're based in Phoenix, AZ, but we're a fully remote company - so you can work from anywhere.

We're looking for someone to...

Tackle miscellaneous challenges across multiple projects.
Figure out solutions to random problems that crop up from time to time
Design prisma.schema files to represent the data layer of new MVPs
Implement CRUD APIs with Next.js
Occasionally work in something you've never worked in before (e.g. writing an occasional VBA script, or researching the requirements of a WhatsApp integration). In these cases there's the natural understanding that you've not done XYZ before, and might need additional resources (like a mac/windows-pc, or a subscription to some service, or something) and/or time to complete it - which it's our job to get you what you need.
Build scaffolding for new projects
Occasionally develop rapid prototypes, that have a lot of stubbed out functionality

Things that are specifically NOT a part of this job (ignore the double-negatives):

Our ideal candidate has:

Salary &Benefits:

$120k per year (full-time, w2), plus bonuses based on overall company performance
Health stipend
3 weeks PTO plus holidays
This isn't really a "benefit" per se, but just to reiterate: this position is fully remote

Hiring Process &Timeline:

We strive to keep this simple/streamlined.
Two interviews total:
First one 30-60 minutes to discuss background, talk at a technical level about some of the stuff you've done in the past, and generally get a feel for each other
Second one ~60 minutes to dive deeper into technical topics (no coding)
A third conversation to discuss offer details and/or answer any questions you have, and generally to make sure you have all the time you need to feel out if we're a good fit for you (in other words: this one is entirely for your benefit - it can be as long or as short as you want it to be)
In a perfect world, we'd love to do a part-time engagement through November/December, and shift to full time at the start of January. We're open to jumping immediately into full time though for the right candidate;happy to discuss.
