🔮 About the role
We are looking for a talented back-end developer to help build the next iteration of CHPTR from the ground up. Our vision for CHPTR includes growing the product to include many technically challenging and complex features.

- Work cross-functionally with the CHPTR team throughout development
- Grow with the company––we will invest in your growth as an engineering manager, individual contributor, or even product leader depending on your goals
💪 What you bring to the table
- Experience developing new software products from scratch with the ability to write understandable, maintainable, and testable code
- Experience with back-end development using Node.js and TypeScript, and with containerization using Docker
- Have strong opinions but are not ideologically tied to specific technologies; naturally curious and willing to take a step to learn something you don’t have experience in; comfortable picking up new stacks and choosing the right tool to get the job done
- Empathy, strong verbal and written communication skills, and the ability to learn new tools and technologies quickly
Bonus points:
- Experience with back-end and general-purpose development using Python
