We are:
We are Schedugram (www.schedugr.am), a company based in Australia but with a global remote team. We help marketing managers and agencies schedule their Instagram content. Our customers range from small businesses to Fortune 500 companies around the globe.
We have been growing significantly for the last 4 years.
Now, we’re searching for a lead engineer who will turbocharge our existing team, hire more talent when it’s needed, streamline our development output and take responsibility for our code base.
Our whole company works remotely, so you will be working with people from across the globe every day.
Our stack:
We use a MEAN stack.
We also have a mobile application in React Native.
We use AWS extensively, from Lambda functions to S3 and of course EC2.
For VCS and issue management we use GitHub. We use Slack to communicate within the team.
What we’re looking for
You will help our team to grow and provide best practice guidance to make sure we are building the right software at the right time.
You:
You're not a middle manager – you aren't afraid to roll up your sleeves and cut code, and you do it often. You demonstrate best practice first hand by showing it, rather than talking about it.
You will spend 90% of your time coding and 10% managing others.
Your background
Our ideal candidate will have:
