Hey there!

Remote is solving global remote organisations’ biggest challenge: employing anyone anywhere compliantly. We make it possible for businesses big and small to employ a global team by handling global payroll, benefits, taxes, and compliance.

We are opening a handful of roles, for Senior and Mid-level elixir engineers, and we would like you to check out what we can offer. We are also open to hiring some people who don’t have Elixir experience but would like to become Elixir engineers.

About us

My name: Rachel Curioso
My position: Backend engineer
Company name: Remote
Company website: https://remote.com/
Company headquarters: Our HQ legal address is in San Francisco, but nobody works there — Remote has been a fully remote company from day one.
Company info and history:

Remote was founded four years ago, and today we are a series-C scale-up. We have a large customer base, close to 1000 employees, and > 100 people engineering team.

Elixir is Remote’s primary backend language, and we are a proud member of the community. Our engineers are contributing back via open-source work, writing books and talking at conferences. We are also extremely proud to have José Valim as our technical advisor.

With this post we are advertising for two engineering roles: senior and mid-level Elixir engineer. The difference is documented in details in our handbook, but in essence, we expect a much higher degree of autonomy from senior engineers.

If you are just starting with Elixir, we have a few positions for people with experience in other languages who are willing to join the community. We will organise a month-long elixir bootcamp for them.
