What the successful job applicant will be working on: We’ll give you a lot of freedom to design, build and maintain our own SaaS solutions: https://postline.ai, https://researchmate.ai and custom-made projects for our clients, mostly marketing agencies.

A small update: We no longer accept new candidates, as we already have multiple exceptional applications.

It was our first experience hiring Elixir devs and the response was amazing! Never got so many great applications in such a short time when I was hiring for Python :grin: So if you’re a company wondering if finding great devs will be a problem - it won’t.
