Toggl is the shared brand for Track, Plan, and Hire. All three companies share the same mission—to eliminate stress from the workplace.
We are a global team of 100+ awesome people geographically dispersed across the world. We have been a fully remote company since 2014 and have worked in a Results-Only-Work-Environment (ROWE) for the past couple of years. That gives our people control over their time and the freedom to work when and where it suits them best.
We have a set of core values that we live and work by. Our vision and planning are very transparent, and all teams define and decide on their goals in a team effort.
We are currently hiring for a passionate Elixir Backend Developer to help us build and maintain our (loved!) SaaS product: Toggl Plan .
Our tech stack: Elixir, PostgreSQL, Git and Unix

Company info and history:
Toggl Plan is a multicultural and diverse team of 15 people from all around the world.
Our product fosters transparency in work, and we practice what we preach—both internally and externally. We are dedicated towards creating a work atmosphere where it’s natural to be open, honest, evolving, and efficient.
As part of Toggl, we are building a complementary tool to the world-famous time tracker: a visual team calendar that helps project teams know who’s doing what and when in seconds.

In collaboration with Toggl Track, our goal is to build healthier workplaces by offering teams simple and easy tools to eliminate stress at work.
