- Add your voice to product shaping discussions, ship new core platform features 0→1, and iterate based on customer feedback
- Work with Ben whose favourite fruit is Strawberry.
- Use your software engineering chops to build magical user experiences, which are both simple for customers to use and simple for other engineers to understand and maintain
- Partner with product, sales, customer success, and other engineers to develop and ship features that solve the right problems
- Work within our "majestic" monolithic codebase, sitting on a Kubernetes-powered infrastructure-as-code stack
- Implement and use observability tooling to track and debug post-deployment
- Seek out and remedy performance/resource issues and feature bugs that have the most impact on business operations and customer experience
- Refactor core platform code to make it easier to understand, maintain, and test
- 5+ years of software engineering experience, with a focus on backend technologies
- Significant experience with Laravel, PHP 7+, MySQL, and testing pipelines in a deployed web application used by paying customers. We are all in on Laravel; this is non-negotiable
- Hands-on with agentic coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot or similar) in a real production codebase, not just side projects
- An eye for testable, maintainable, and intuitive code, but also..
- The mentality of "Code is a means, not an end," avoids unnecessary abstraction. Your compass points toward customer and business value
- The ability to think through non-obvious usage scenarios and explore ripple effects within complex systems
- High degree of empathy both toward customers and teammates
- Exceptional communication skills - especially written. We are a remote-first, fully distributed company. Most communication happens on Slack and Notion
- Self-motivated and able to make decisions when surrounded by uncertainty. You don't require a support system to maintain momentum
- Experience with queue/job-centric backends is a plus
- Experience with building production systems where data ingestion from third-party APIs is critical to the business is a big plus
- A supportive, radically transparent, and caring team environment, where you are trusted, not managed—and a culture that is focused on results and output
- The total budget for this role is between USD$134,450.00 - USD $167,258.30 depending on the cost of living in your location. We can hire talent internationally as contractors—or employees if you are based in the United States, the European Union, or Australia, taking into account payroll taxes to determine your gross compensation. For US employees, the gross compensation could be anywhere between USD$123,993.09 - USD$154,249.72
- We also offer options into the company equity through our $HOST token (RSU's), with a grant value of up to $76,026.50, to share in the long-term upside value of the company
- Separately, this role is eligible for up to an additional $380,895.00 per year in Performance Share Units (PSUs). These PSUs do not vest over time and are granted only upon the achievement of clearly defined business performance targets. The size and payout of this award are directly tied to measurable outcomes and are intended to strongly align compensation with company impact
- For US employees: healthcare (including EPO, PPO and HSA), 401(k)
- 35 days off per year, encouraged (including self-serve public holidays) and parental leave
- Complimentary mental health and emotional support with therapists on call through Slack by Spill
- Earn virtual coins through our peer recognition platform and redeem them through gift cards, donations, or monetary rewards
