We have an educational website that uses videos, livestream events, and online lesson materials to teach science to young learners. Our website was custom developed using Phoenix and Elixir and we have integrations with YouTube, MailChimp, and Google. The site is hosted on AWS. Our web developer has recently closed up shop and we are looking for someone to take over hosting responsibilities as well as perform website maintenance, troubleshooting, and minor feature upgrades. We host livestream events with schools through our website and need someone that can jump in quickly to help troubleshoot if our system goes down. This is ongoing with the possibility of additional freelance projects in the future as we expand or improve features.

We paid our previous developer a monthly retainer for approximately three hours of work monthly. We’d like to continue with a similar arrangement. Time and compensation are negotiable.

Senior Elixir Engineer – RFX (Stealth Startup), Remote ±4–5 hrs CET

Introductory paragraph

If you’re a senior Elixir engineer who thrives on building systems that never fail, this is the role for you. We are a stealth-mode startup building Robust Failsafe Execution (RFX), a global trust and governance platform designed for 99.999% reliability and 100% certainty. You will work on infrastructure on par with AWS/DynamoDB, but with formal correctness guarantees baked into every workflow. This is your chance to design, build, and reason about stateful, deterministic, fault-tolerant distributed systems that real-world institutions can trust globally.

About us

My name: Arun Balakrishnan
My position: Founder
Company name: Stealth Startup / RFX
Company website: (stealth)
Company headquarters (country): Germany

Company info and history (how you’re using Elixir etc):
RFX is a Robust Failsafe Execution Platform built on Elixir and the BEAM. We are building the core engine that guarantees correctness and trust for critical workflows, with stateful execution, deterministic replay, and formal reasoning about failure. You’ll be working on the primitives that make global reliability and certainty a reality.

About the job

Job title: Senior Elixir Engineer ( 6 years +)

Job description:
You will own the core execution engine of RFX. Expect to solve hard distributed systems problems—consensus, retries, exactly-once semantics, stateful workflows, and deterministic execution. This is not a CRUD app; you’ll be building the foundation that global institutions can trust.

Compensation: Equity-only

Qualifications or experience required:

Strong experience with Elixir/OTP in production
Deep understanding of supervision trees, GenServers, and fault tolerance
Experience with stateful or distributed systems
Ability to reason formally about consistency, determinism, and failure modes
Comfortable in a high-rigor, low-ambiguity engineering environment

What the successful job applicant will be working on:

Core RFX workflow execution engine
Deterministic state handling and replay mechanisms
Reliability guarantees (exactly-once, idempotent execution patterns)
Distributed primitives and consensus mechanisms
Internal tooling for debugging, inspection, and formal verification

Bonus / optional: Willingness to move to Berlin for a couple of years if we secure funding is highly appreciated, but not mandatory.

Position on remote work

Remote job: yes
Remote restrictions: Candidates must be within ±4–5 hours from CET
Remote leeway: Exceptional candidates outside the range may be considered
Any other notes about your position on remote work: Fully remote with flexible working hours, but some overlap with CET for team collaboration is expected.

About the interview process

Introductory call (30 minutes)
Technical discussion on Elixir/OTP and system design
Practical system design/code review exercise
Final conversation on expectations and ownership

The process is designed to be efficient, technical, and respectful of your time.

Further info

This is a full-time, long-term role in a stealth startup working on infrastructure that could define the next generation of global trust systems.

Contact: arun@rfx.codes (please include GitHub or examples of Elixir/distributed systems work)
