**What weโre doing**\n\n80% of the global workforce doesnโt sit behind a desk - think retail assistants, waiters, bartenders, care assistants, nurses and so on. But up until now only 1% of funding has gone into building tools for them.\n\nAs a desk based worker itโs hard to imagine working without tools like Slack, Trello and Gmail, but for much of the deskless workforce, thatโs the current state of play.\n\nThe only way to find out what shifts youโre working is to look at a print out taped to the break room wall. Changes to shifts are scribbled on the printout, photographed then sent to WhatsApp groups. Managers spend hours calling and texting trying and often not succeeding to fill overtime shifts. Payslips are sent in the post or accessed via web 1.0 portals and holiday is requested either in-person or through clunky legacy kiosks. And thatโs just the tip of the iceberg.\n\nThe result is a dissatisfied workforce, soaring rates of attrition and tens of billions wasted in lost productivity, re-hiring and unnecessary agency spend. \n\nThis same workforce is accustomed to the very best in user experience, WhatsApp for messaging, Monzo for banking and AirBnB for holidays.\n\nSo where is the work app?\n\nThatโs what weโre building at Sona. The single app that will deliver a best in class user experience for deskless workers to manage their entire work life.\n\nWeโre still early on in our journey so anyone getting involved has scope to have a huge impact. \n\nWeโve raised a $2.2m pre-seed round from some amazing investors including SpeedInvest and Notion Capital. We have a highly experienced founding team and amazing sales, marketing and customer success people as well as some exceptional engineering and product design talent. \n\n**About the role**\n\nYouโll be working as part of a fully remote, close knit product team. We use Github + ZenHub for code hosting and project management and operate an extremely lightweight sprint based process.\n\nWe like engineers to be heavily involved throughout the product development process, not just in building.\n\nOur stack has two main components:\n\n* A backend with a GraphQL API and web frontend built using Elixir and Phoenix Live View\n* A native mobile application built in React Native + Typescript\n\nWe think in terms of โT Shapedโ developers. This means that while all of us have some ability across the โfull stackโ, most of us have one side of the stack (e.g. Elixir or React Native) weโre stronger on and spend the bulk of our time on.\n\nTypically when somebody starts working with us, they have strong experience with one side of the stack and then learn the other part on the job. \n\n\n**About You**\n\nWe love engineers who have a non nonsense approach to โgetting it shippedโ, who when given the choice between โcomplicated and shinyโ vs โget something simple in front of a userโ will always choose the latter. \n\nEverybodyโs different, but a lot of the following probably applies to you:\n\n* You have extensive professional experience in Elixir or React Native (you don't need both!!)\n* If your experience is in Elixir, youโre happy to talk about OTP, Erlang, Beam and how these relate to each other. Youโve built things using LiveView and are comfortable talking about itโs advantages and challenges. \n* If your experience is in React Native youโre happy to talk about Typescript, the role of generics and when they should be used, what hooks are, how they changed how we build React Native apps and when one should consider writing custom hooks. Youโd be equally happy explaining promises and how they interact with async / await\n* You have a strong preference for over-communication, and take ownership of ensuring you fully understand what youโre working on\n* Youโre in a country which is GMT +/- 3 and fluent communicating both verbally and in writing in English \n\n**How We Work**\n\nWeโre a fully remote team spread across 4 countries (and growing). We have a company stand up most mornings at 10:00 UK time. We aim to have fully paid for company meetups roughly once per quarter. \n\nEverything starts with talking to customers. We like everyone in the company to regularly join either sales calls with new prospects or catch ups with existing customers \n\nWeโre a small company with a strong preference for lightweight, asynchronous processes. Within product we work in sprints with periodic retrospectives.\n\n**Interview Process**\n\nOur interview process follows this pattern:\n\n* Initial phone screen (15-30 minutes) focused primarily on approach to work, career goals and your questions about Sona\n* Technical Interview (1-2 hours) take us through a piece of code you're proud of and talk about how it's architected, what worked well and what you'd do differently if you wrote it again. If you don't have a suitable piece of code, we're also happy to pay you for half a days work to do a take home task. But we understand that everyone's busy so we'd much rather use some code you've already got where possible!\n* Founder Interview (1 hour), focused on why youโre interested in Sona and your questions about the vision\n\n**Benefits**\n\n* Competitive salary\n* Employee share option scheme\n* New M1 Macbook + equipment grant for home office\n* Co-working stipend \n* 4.5 day standard working week (take your half day out when it suits you)\n* Unlimited free books \n\nPlease mention the words **WORLD DIAL HUNT** when applying to show you read the job post completely (#RMjE2LjczLjIxNi4xNDY=).

๐ Please reference you found the job on Remote OK, this helps us get more companies to post here, thanks!
When applying for jobs, you should NEVER have to pay to apply. You should also NEVER have to pay to buy equipment which they then pay you back for later. Also never pay for trainings you have to do. Those are scams! NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING! Posts that link to pages with "how to work online" are also scams. Don't use them or pay for them. Also always verify you're actually talking to the company in the job post and not an imposter. A good idea is to check the domain name for the site/email and see if it's the actual company's main domain name. Scams in remote work are rampant, be careful! Read more to avoid scams.

\nOctane AI is a venture-backed chatbots and messaging startup seeking a Full-Stack Engineer interested in building the future of bots and artificial intelligence. \n\nOctane AI is the leading conversational marketing automation platform for ecommerce. We use messaging channels like Facebook Messenger and SMS to improve the shopping experience for Shopify merchants and their customers. We work closely with Shopify, Klaviyo, Yotpo, and other top tech platforms in the ecommerce space. We are pioneering the future of ecommerce through conversational commerce. We are an all-remote company and venture backed, some of our investors include General Catalyst, Boost VC, and M Ventures. \n\nYou will work directly with our CTO Leif K-Brooks (founder and creator of Omegle, the largest chat platform of its kind, used by millions daily), our Director of Engineering, and our product team, to help build Octane AI's back-end technology and front-end experience. You will be in charge of building and implementing new plugins and features. You will be a critical member of the team, impacting our customers and revenue with the features you develop. \n\nMore about working in Engineering at Octane AI \n\n-We believe the happier you are, the more productive you and the team are. Being a remote company allows us to work from wherever we'd prefer. Spend your evenings and weekends with your family/friends/hobbies. \n- We hate bureaucracy. Feel free to talk to anyone in the team. \n- Your ideas are welcome. If you know how to improve our codebase, our product, our processes, don't be shy to share it. \n- In our weekly meetings we do a fun thing called "fast parrot". Everybody, including the CEO, is involved. It's a little weird and fun at the same time, especially if you are doing a meeting from a public place. \n- Our release process involves code review. In rare cases, we deploy without it, but we try hard to make sure at least one more pair of eyes looks at the code. \n- Flexible working hours. We have only two meetings a week (they're back-to-back) where the whole team participates and it's necessary to be online. For the rest of the time, it's up to you to choose the most productive schedule for your work. \n- Three days a month we have "maintenance days" where you choose what to work on. Usually we work on tech debt, i.e. code cleanup or purely tech improvements. \n- Don't work if you are sick. It's way better to rest and recover quicker than work at half power for a long time. \n- If you feel you are stuck with a task don't hesitate to ask for help. There are no stupid questions, nobody expects you to know everything.\n\nRESPONSIBILITIES\n\n\n\n\n* Work with the product team and engineering teammates to develop and implement new features and plugins for Octane AI. A well-rounded & diversified engineer is ideal for this role. If you love working with frontend mostly, that's also fine as long as you are able to change backend whenever needed.\n\n* Transform our roadmap and your ideas into scalable products and features. You will have the power to guide the direction of the company and the (many) features we build.\n\n* Implement new integrations within Octane AI. You will be working with the Facebook API and the APIs of products and services that we will be integrating into our bots and the Octane AI platform. You should be adept at learning new APIs.\n\n* Help develop and improve Octane AI's architecture.\n\n* Work quickly and efficiently in a fast-paced startup environment. Be flexible enough to take on any task.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nREQUIREMENTS\n\n\n\n\n* 3-8+ years of frontend and backend-back development work. The ideal candidate is a top-tier developer who is comfortable in a startup environment -- AKA putting out fires, learning on-the-fly, and thrives on change and new challenges.\n\n* Critical skills: Python, Javascript (We use React.js).\n\n* Important: Experience working with the Facebook API, Redis, AWS DDB.\n\n* Nice to have: ES6/ES7, SASS, React-bootstrap, Redux, Functional programming experience\n\n* Please provide code samples or links to repositories with your code, along with an explanation of your programming philosophy. The more we can understand the way you think about code, the better. It's not an issue if you can't share a piece of code because of an NDA or something else.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBENEFITS\n\n\n\n\n* The ability to work from anywhere in the world. Our team works from New York, Portland, Barcelona, Austin, Canada, Serbia, Slovenia and more. As long as you can get the work done, we don't care where you are!\n\n* Excellent health benefits: health, dental and vision insurance for US employees\n\n* 401(k) for US employees\n\n* Flexible vacation policy, paid holidays, sick leave and parental leave\n\n* Fitness and home office credits. We want your workspace to be your happy place.\n\n* Generous stock options\n\n* Growth and leadership opportunities. We invest in the tools and training that will help your long-term career.\n\n* An amazing team of wonderfully driven and talented people\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Octane AI \n\nOctane AI is the bot platform for ecommerce. Octane AI's Facebook Messenger marketing automation software helps Shopify merchants send abandoned cart messages, create custom flows, and increase their sales and revenue. Thousands of merchants and businesses trust Octane AI for their Messenger bots, including GoPro, Pure Cycles, Cover FX, Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group, Maroon 5, and more. \n\n#Salary and compensation\n
