Compose (IBM) | REMOTE (US, UK, CA)

Developing software appeals to those who love to solve puzzles and apply their brain power -- and also to those, in our experience, who like working from home in their pyjamas. It is often said that one of the trickiest accomplishments in the development world is imagining, building and maintaining a complex and interconnected mental model of your entire infrastructure within your working memory. If you have experience applying this mental feat within some type of Software-as-a-Service, we have a tremendous challenge for you and a terrific team willing and able to support you through it.

* Work from anywhere! As long as you're legally able to work in the United States, Canada, or the United Kingdom.

* Completely flat, open culture.

* Ruby/Go.

* Fantastic salary and benefits.

Our hiring process is nifty. We request a work-sample upfront that closely resembles the work you'd be doing within your role. Once you submit, your answers are anonymized then graded using criteria by 3 different people.

We have two engineering positions open for candidates:

* Platform Engineer

* Business Systems Developer
