Hello, is this position allowed for remote world wide right now or still just for remote USA? Thanks!

Hi Luiz, it’s still remote within the US.

Thanks, I sent my CV just in case.

Wow, Felt looks awesome!
I’m not qualified for the position, unless you want a tester who’s just learning Elixir :wink:

Thanks for the kind words! I am biased but I do think we do some pretty cool stuff at Felt :blush: (and we have very fun internal talks given by people that are rather big names in mapping :world_map:).

Felt looks like an awesome opportunity. Are you guys still looking? If yes, are you open to remote from India? I have been working in the US timezone for the past 4 years with total 9 years of experience.
