    Pixavo is building the next generation of retail technology. At this early stage in the company, we’re always looking for smart people who get things done. We have an exciting path ahead of us, and we’ll be growing the team the entire way there.

    We’re looking for smart engineers who want to get involved on the ground level. Our stack is Ruby on the backend, with iOS (Swift 4) and JS on the frontend. You should be comfortable with at least one of those languages. You should also be comfortable with the pace and structure associated with building software from the ground up. We’re not maintaining one million lines of legacy code here; we’re making pivotal decisions in greenfield environments, and we’d expect you to be a driving part of that.

    We don’t think it makes much sense to stipulate X years of experience or expertise in some arbitrary list of libraries. Instead, we’ll expect that you’ve achieved some broad milestones and are excited about continued opportunities to experiment and grow, regardless of your skill level…

    In general, you understand that the most impressive software comes from collaboration. Sometimes you’re cranking away with some tunes on, and other times you’re excited to help show somebody how to solve a problem that gave you trouble in the past. You’re also really good at taking large, ambitious ideas, and turning them into many small, readily achievable tasks. We solve hard problems at Pixavo, because those are the only ones worth building a business on top of, and it feels good to go home after having added a little more value to the platform every day.
