Giftly | REMOTE | Full-stack engineer | www.giftly.com

This is a unique opportunity: you can live anywhere in the world and work whenever you want as long as you stay coordinated with the team, deliver high-quality code, and consistently meet deadlines. This is a good role for someone who has solid experience and wants to take on significant responsibility in order to enjoy that flexibility.

About Giftly: Giftly is a successful e-commerce startup that has grown from a VC-backed seed round in 2011 into a profitable company.

The core Giftly service is a fairly mature gift card service, with hundreds of thousands of users and millions of dollars being processed annually. We are working on launching a brand new gift card product that will run alongside the existing service.

The role: We are searching for an experienced full-stack engineer to play a crucial role in both maintaining the core service and developing this new product. In this role, you will be responsible for front-end and back-end development and deployment infrastructure.

The CTO, who’s been with the company for over 5 years, will be a resource for institutional knowledge, collaboration, and problem-solving, but you’ll be encouraged and empowered to make your own architecture and implementation decisions. You will get to own the application and be involved in key product strategy decisions and setting high-level priorities.
