Piton Labs is hiring a full-time senior software engineer who can handle full-stack development, with a strong backend focus, and solid experience with cloud infrastructure. Startup experience (either as a founder or at an early-stage company) is preferred. We favor candidates located in the GMT-8 (US West Coast) to GMT-3 time zones, though we may consider other time zones case by case.

At Piton Labs, you’ll work with both startups and large organizations to solve their most challenging technical problems. You’ll need to deal with uncertainty and complexity in software development—not only helping customers build products, but also helping them clarify what the product should actually do. Instead of just taking tasks from a checklist, you’ll help set priorities and focus on solving the problems most important to our customers.

We’re technology-neutral, but most projects use TypeScript, React, and Go. Cloud infrastructure is typically on AWS, though some clients may choose other platforms. You should have at least five years of experience with mainstream web application stacks, relational databases, and modern frontend technologies. Familiarity with our tools is a plus but not required. You must be able to deliver reliable, thoroughly tested code consistently.

Your week may include:
• Developing complex user interfaces for web or mobile applications
• Designing and building serverless API layers for new products
• Using infrastructure-as-code tools to design and deploy cloud infrastructure
• Demonstrating new features to relevant stakeholders for our clients

About you:
You can work independently and value high-quality code. You enjoy solving problems and like continuously expanding your technical skills. We value traits such as:
• Pragmatism: focused on solving problems and creating value, and knowing when a creative approach is needed
• Ownership: accountable for products or features while balancing technical needs with human considerations
• Experience: 5+ years in the industry, involved in a wide range of projects, continuously improving your skills
• Adaptability: willing to grow with new tools and technologies instead of being limited by your existing expertise

Remote work policy:
• We are a fully remote team with no physical office
• Preference for candidates with legal work authorization in the United States
• Secondary preference for candidates from Canada, Uruguay, or Paraguay
• 4–6 hours of overlap with US Eastern Time each day
• Digital nomads are welcome—you can work from anywhere

Why join us:
• Competitive compensation: $140,000 USD annual salary for US employees
• Quarterly performance bonus tied to company results, typically $2,500–$5,000
• Four weeks of paid time off
• Long-term fully remote work
• Good work-life balance—partner with fast-growing startups without weekend overtime
• A flexible async culture: fewer meetings, and we trust your independent output
