Software Engineer (Back End)

About this role

About Remote

Remote addresses one of the biggest challenges for modern organizations: managing global employment in a compliant and simple way. We enable companies of all sizes to hire, pay, and manage international teams. Guided by our core values and a future-oriented work culture, our team collaborates asynchronously across the globe. Remoters work from six continents (Antarctica still pending!), and every role at Remote is fully remote.

We encourage every member of the Remote team to bring their skills, experiences, and culture to help us build a best-in-class HR platform.

If you are curious, driven, motivated, and ambitious, join us and help shape the future of work. Apply today.

The position

You will join a group of engineers spanning Frontend, Backend, SRE, and QA. We are structured into cross-functional development teams aligned to specific verticals.

This opening supports multiple teams. The exact team assignment will be determined during the interview process, taking into account business needs and your preferences.

No matter the team, you will contribute to building tools, APIs, and integrations that support one of our products.

Our backend stack uses Elixir and Phoenix with a Postgres database. The frontend is built with React and Next.js. GitLab serves as our version control system, issue tracker, and CI/CD platform. Our applications run on AWS, and we rely heavily on CI for deployments, releasing multiple times each day.
