Full-stack Elixir Engineer

About CutTime

CutTime helps band directors organize their high school music programs with features that help them collect money from parents, costs for travel, instrument inventory and assignments, waivers, and more. It’s basically Basecamp for band directors.

At CutTime, we value cross-functional collaboration and teamwork above all else. Rather than dividing our employees into senior and junior or front-end and back-end teams, we work together as a unified team. We believe that this approach allows us to create a superior product, while also fostering a more enjoyable and fulfilling work environment.

Position

We are looking to hire a full-stack software engineer to help us continue to build our Elixir + Phoenix LiveView app.

Requirements

You should:

  • Be willing to pair program with us at least 80% of the time
  • Be available for remote-work during standard working hours within American time zones
  • Prefer shipping early and often
  • Be excited by startups
  • Love writing tests and crafting beautiful code

Some nice-to-haves:

  • Experience with Elixir or another functional programing language
  • Mastery of at least one technology stack (3+ years experience)
  • Experience building for the web
  • A preference for test-driven development
  • Knowledge of SQL
  • A sense of humor

Responsibilities

At CutTime, our engineers have only three responsibilities:

  1. Make a great product for our users
  2. Help make tomorrow’s work even smoother
  3. Creature a culture that supports our colleagues in doing 1 and 2

Here are some of the ways we accomplish these goals:

  • Pair programming (we pair program most of the time)
  • Test-driven development (our suite of more than 2200 tests, including 375 rock-solid end-to-end web UI tests, runs in 12 seconds)
  • Shipping often with frequent commits (we ship to production multiple times per day)
  • Maintaining and improving our production environments (we host on Fly.io)
  • Working closely with our product team to craft the best experience possible for our users
