How we work
At Flexhire, our engineering team moves fast. We run on React and NextJS on the frontend and Rails/Postgres on the backend deployed on AWS. Our fullstack engineers take full ownership of individual features from idea through release and feedback. We work using the Kanban approach for project management, getting early feedback from end users. We are an AI first small team leveragin Cursor for coding. We keep on top of the latest AI tools to ensure we are maximizing our velocity & productivity. In our fully remote team, everyone makes a difference
You will work directly with users and management and help shape our evolving product
You will take ownership of features end to end
We are fully remote and work on slack and have daily video standups
Tech stack
Our product is built on a modern React, NextJS and Rails/Postgres stack with a focus on leveraging AI for productivity and test automation.
You will work on a modern codebase that is regularly maintained and refactored to match the product's growth and scale, and to take advantage of the ideal tech to power the information deep, highly interactive UI of Flexhire.
We have a Rails application as our backend, and a hybrid SPA with Server Side Rendering and PWA features as our frontend. Our frontend is built using the Next.js framework, React, Typescript, Material-UI and a GraphQL API with the Relay client. We also make heavy use of React hooks both from libraries and our own custom ones.
The Rails backend and the Next.js frontend communicate through a GraphQL API and we have automations in place to ensure type safety so Typescript types are automatically generated for the GraphQL queries on the frontend, thanks to the Relay client.
Our infrastructure is deployed on AWS with redundant, horizontally scaled servers. The deployments are managed through automated CI and CD pipelines, and we also have multiple comprehensive suites of all kinds of automated tests to keep us moving fast without breaking things. Finally, we stay on top of user facing issues through deep Sentry integration and LogRocket.
Our engineering team is small but mighty!! We have an open communication culture and flat, horizontal structure so you will be encouraged to get to know all the different aspects of the product, or to specialize in specific functional areas in the codebase and product backend.
