  • Participate in technical design discussions and code reviews.

  • Learn how high-performing engineering teams actually build software.

What We're Looking For

Show us your GitHub.

Show us your side projects.

Show us the weekend project you couldn't stop thinking about.

Show us the thing that broke five times before you finally got it working.

We love curiosity, ownership, and people who teach themselves new things because they genuinely want to understand how they work.

You'll probably thrive here if you...

  • Build things for fun.

  • Ask great questions.

  • Enjoy solving problems that don't have obvious answers.

  • Like moving quickly.

  • Aren't afraid to admit when you don't know something.

  • Care more about learning than looking smart.

Bonus Points

  • Experience with Python or modern backend development.

  • AI or LLM experience.

  • Open-source contributions.

  • Hackathons.

  • Research projects.

  • Startup experience.

Before You Apply

Don't spend hours polishing your résumé.

Spend ten minutes showing us something you've built!

That's what we'll remember.
