At Slab, we are on a mission to make the workplace a source of learning and purpose. We believe that writing is the best way for teams to retain and share knowledge. Since the beginning, we've been fanatically focused on building the best knowledge base for every team.\n\nAs an engineering team, we deeply care about solving our users' pain points as well as our engineering quality. We thrive on learning from each other. Our team has been globally remote from the start, so we have the infrastructure to support flexible work arrangements.\n\nOur backend team is responsible for the core of our [Elixir-based system](https://elixir-lang.org/blog/2020/11/17/real-time-collaboration-with-elixir-at-slab/) providing APIs for both our frontend and our clients. You will architect, implement, and scale crucial components, such as our real-time collaboration service and [integration](https://slab.com/integrations/) service, to fulfill our users' needs.\n\nOur founders came from YC, Salesforce and Airbnb. We are backed by top-tier investors, including Matrix Partners, CRV, and NEA. Today, Slab is trusted by thousands of teams, such as Asana, Vox Media, and Vevo.\n\n# Sound like you?\n\n- You have 4+ years of experience maintaining complicated backend systems; Elixir experience is a bonus\n- You're curious to learn and demonstrate the ability to do so very quickly\n- You communicate with clarity and precision, whether with teammates or users\n- You thrive in a collaborative environment involving different stakeholders and subject-matter experts\n- You are self-motivated, possess a strong work ethic, and work well independently\n- You identify with Slab's mission and values\n\n# Technologies we use\n\n- TypeScript + React\n- GraphQL + Apollo + Absinthe\n- Phoenix + Elixir\n- Postgres\n- Docker + Kubernetes\n- Google Cloud Platform\n\nWe are looking for either depth in one part of the stack or breadth across a wide portion.\n\n# What we value\n\n- Stay lean: We strive for the greatest possible impact with the fewest number of employees. We empower our teammates with the most leveraged tools and efficient processes.\n- Default to open: We encourage and nurture open exchanges of knowledge and ideas โ while acting with respect and regard for each other.\n- Think rigorously: We act and execute after careful thought and examination of known information, while acknowledging the risks we accept in its absence.\n- Say no: We aim to deliver exceptionally high value in a small set of focus areas. We willingly abstain from good ideas to give only the most promising paths the attention they deserve.\n- The best prevails: Whether an idea or an individual, the best will rise to the top at Slab. Ideas we pursue can come from anywhere, and individuals gain responsibilities due to outperformance.\n- Global optimization: We believe that our mission โ to make the workplace a source of learning and purpose โ is the ultimate priority, above any single project, team, or individual.\n\n# Benefits\n\n- Flexible work arrangements\n- Medical, dental, and vision insurance\n- Generous equity offer\n- 7-year option exercise window\n- $5k desk setup of your choice\n\n\n_Slab is an equal opportunity employer.

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. When clicking on the button to apply above, you will leave Remote OK and go to the job application page for that company outside this site. Remote OK accepts no liability or responsibility as a consequence of any reliance upon information on there (external sites) or here.
