I’m the founder, trying to do “enlightened business.” We are a people-first, fully-remote, boutique indie tech agency – building a team of talented, high integrity, and community-minded individuals first, then building businesses around them. Our leadership staff are ex-Fortune 100; everybody touches code. Notable recent projects: internal tools for Anduril, and the auction system for voltagepark.com.

We’re currently especially seeking:

Full-Stack Software Engineers (React, NextJS, Ruby on Rails; Typescript, Python; Database Design, Devops, and third-party API integrations)

IoT Developers (Python, MQTT, GraphQL, AWS, Test Infrastructure)

Please apply using this Google Form: https://forms.gle/Dxpj7eTwcHpjiGT39. Applicants who submit before January 15 will typically receive a reply by January 31. Tier3 roles are typically 5-10 y/o/e with $150-$175k annual total comp. Tier4 roles are 11-20 y/o/e, $210-$250k annual total comp. Higher tiers exist, and we welcome exceptional applications.

REGARDING DECEMBER - if you already submitted to last December's post, and haven't heard from us yet, we're still getting to you. The team's been working really hard over the last year, and I unexpectedly gave most of the folks helping me with job submissions the time off at the end of December / beginning of January. Apologies for the delay, and we will be with you soon. Rest assured there are jobs we're trying to fill - in fact, more than ever, it seems.

I’m a senior backend software engineer with 5+ years of experience building distributed, containerized systems in fintech and blockchain, mainly working on Linux/Docker backends with a strong focus on reliability and performance.

I tried applying via the careers terminal, but it stays in shell mode on my end and doesn’t start the interactive flow (likely a browser or JS init issue), so I’ll also reach out via email.

The work you’re doing around decentralized coordination and sandboxed execution is exactly the kind of systems engineering I’m interested in.

Tiger Data (FKA Timescale) [ Global | 100% Remote | Multiple Roles: Eng, Product, Support + more ]

We began in 2017 as TimescaleDB, focused on making PostgreSQL the best database for time-series data. As our customers evolved, so did we.

Today, more than 2,000 companies use our technology to power real-time analytics, agentic applications, and high-ingest operational systems. What started as a time-series database has become the fastest PostgreSQL for modern workloads. To reflect that evolution, we’re now TigerData—a name that speaks to our speed, precision, and ambition. The tiger has long been part of our culture: fast, focused, powerful. From “Tiger Time” all-hands to welcoming new hires as “tiger cubs,” it’s how we build—decisively, fearlessly, and with purpose.

This is not a reinvention: it’s a reflection of how we already serve our customers today.
