  • Experience owning production systems end-to-end, including operational concerns and system reliability

  • Familiarity with cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and Infrastructure as Code tools such as Terraform

  • Experience working with APIs, integrations, observability tooling, and data-driven decision-making

  • Curiosity and enthusiasm for AI-assisted development tools like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or Claude Code

  • Excellent collaboration skills and a customer-centric mindset, ideally with experience supporting operational or customer-facing teams

 

What we offer:

Inspiring Mission: At our core, we are driven by a meaningful mission - to empower solopreneurs and small businesses to succeed and to contribute to the sustainability and vibrancy of the communities they serve.

Flexibility and Trust: Our work environment thrives on flexibility and trust. We offer fully remote work set-up with opportunities for in-person collaboration. You can manage your working hours flexibly because we prioritize the results you deliver over the number of hours you put in.

An International Diverse Team: Our team is a mosaic of over 248 individuals hailing from 50+ different countries and working across 15+ diverse locations. We take pride in our openness and inclusivity, with an Employee-led DEI Council and active ERGs that ensure everyone's voices are heard.
