Automattic (WordPress.com, Gravatar, WooCommerce, etc.) | Backend developer | Remote | <a href="
I never thought I would work for 10 years with the same company, but here I am :-) Automattic is the nicest group of people (brings 10x personal happiness), almost no bureaucracy (given it’s 600+ people), just common sense on every level.
On to technical things. We’re looking for more backend developers to work both on APIs, but also on user-facing features. Teams are small, a lot of the code is open-source, backend deploys take few seconds and we do 100+ a day, the CI says tests are passing, scaling and performance are daily concerns.
And some not-so-technical. Users are millions and kinda like us, 100% distributed – we meet in person few times per year anywhere in the world, growing stable business, all internal communication is open to anybody, people rarely leave the company.
Stack:
- PHP REST API
- modern JavaScript single-page app frontend, 100% open-source: <a href="
- various other systems in Python, Go, Erlang, Java…
