Remote Developers and Remote Software Engineers share similar skills and credentials, often working remotely in tech environments. The main difference lies in their roles: Remote Developers typically focus on coding and building applications, while Remote Software Engineers may have broader responsibilities including system design and architecture. Both roles are in high demand and frequently searched for by employers and job seekers alike.
Remote developers, or remote software developers, design and create computer software programs and applications for their employer or client. Unlike in-house developers, remote developers work from home or another location outside of the office. As a remote developer, you discuss the kind of program you need to create, making sure to clarify with your department or with your client what they need in their application. You may develop an entirely new program or improve an existing one. Remote developers are responsible for a program’s overall function, and they design precise workflow charts that explain to programmers what code is needed for different aspects of the program. Remote developers may also design tests and protocols for the QA department to follow when they are testing the application.

About the Role
We’re looking for a Software Engineer who thrives in fast-moving environments and wants to make a meaningful impact on a growing engineering team. We’re a small, high-velocity team that values curiosity, accountability, collaboration, and delivering exceptional customer experience.
You’ll work closely with Product and Engineering to design, build, and ship high-quality software across our platform while helping shape technical direction, engineering standards, and team culture.
We ship to production daily and operate with an AI-first development mindset. We expect engineers to actively leverage AI tooling in their workflow and push the boundaries of how AI can accelerate development, improve engineering quality, and enhance the product itself.
Our core tech stack and tools include PHP/Laravel, React, Angular, MySQL, AWS, Claude Code, and Datadog.
You’ll do well here if you enjoy solving ambiguous problems, moving quickly, taking ownership, and building practical solutions without unnecessary process.
Key Responsibilities
Design, build, and ship features across backend, frontend, and infrastructure layers
Own projects from concept through production, including testing, deployment, monitoring, and post-release follow-through
Write clean, maintainable, well-tested code and contribute to strong engineering practices and standards
Use AI development tools, including Claude Code, as a core part of your daily workflow
Participate in thoughtful code reviews and collaborate openly with teammates
Troubleshoot production issues, optimize performance, and improve system reliability
Partner cross-functionally with Product, Design, Operations, and Customer teams to turn ideas into scalable solutions
Maintain a strong customer-first mindset in both technical and product decisions
Skills, Experience, and Qualifications
5+ years of professional full-stack software engineering experience
Strong experience with modern web application development, preferably including React, PHP/Laravel, and relational databases
Strong alignment with AI-assisted and agentic development workflows
Proven ability to design scalable, maintainable systems, not just deliver short-term solutions
Demonstrated ownership and accountability, including the ability to independently drive projects, ask the right questions early, and proactively identify risks or blockers
Experience with cloud infrastructure and modern deployment practices, preferably within AWS environments
Experience with containerization, serverless architectures, and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform preferred)
Knowledge of observability, application performance tuning, and system troubleshooting
Strong communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills
Compensation & Benefits
Competitive compensation and performance-based incentives
Comprehensive benefits package, including healthcare, 401(k), and generous PTO
Full-time remote role with flexible work arrangements
Opportunity to shape the technical direction of a growing platform and engineering organization
Collaborative team focused on execution, innovation, and continuous improvement
High-growth, low-ego environment with meaningful ownership and visibility
Professional development and leadership growth opportunities
Mission-driven work with a measurable impact on community safety nationwide
