What are remote software jobs?

Remote software jobs are positions in the technology sector where professionals work from locations outside the traditional office, typically from home or anywhere with internet access. These roles involve designing, developing, testing, or maintaining software applications and can include titles like software developer, engineer, or QA tester. Remote software jobs offer flexibility and often require strong communication skills and self-motivation. Companies use collaborative tools and platforms to manage workflow and team interactions for remote employees.

How do remote software developers typically collaborate effectively with their teams despite not sharing a physical workspace?

Remote software developers rely heavily on digital collaboration tools such as version control systems, video conferencing, and project management platforms to stay connected with their teams. Regularly scheduled stand-up meetings, code reviews, and clear documentation are essential to ensure everyone is aligned and projects progress smoothly. While remote work offers flexibility, it also requires strong communication skills and self-discipline to manage tasks and deadlines independently. Teams often establish clear guidelines and use asynchronous communication to accommodate different time zones, helping maintain productivity and a sense of teamwork.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Software Engineer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Software Engineer, you need strong programming skills, problem-solving abilities, and a relevant degree or equivalent experience in computer science or software development. Familiarity with version control systems like Git, cloud platforms, and collaboration tools such as Slack or Jira is typically required. Excellent communication, self-motivation, and time management are crucial soft skills for remote teamwork and productivity. These competencies ensure effective project delivery, seamless remote collaboration, and adaptability to dynamic technical environments.

Company Description

Company Intro

B2B SaaS companies are struggling with their Go-To-Market as the current tools in Revenue Operations were not build for SaaS. At MonetizeNow, we conceptualized the World's First Centralized Revenue Architecture with a single platform that solves selling, billing (including usage) across all sales channels. Our customers are now able to make more revenue and eliminate sales friction related to new sales, amendments and renewals. 

Culture

At MonetizeNow, culture is not just a statement about our values but something that we firmly believe in and we are a culture-driven company. We are a remote-first company with a highly collaborative work culture. Our core values:

  • Attention to detail
  • Extreme ownership
  • No jerks 
  • Learning Mindset
  • Having fun 
Job Description

Overview
Our team is building a modern microservices-based multi-tenant SaaS platform that needs to be highly scalable and performant. We are looking for an engineer who has done this before to help us architect and build it right from the start. We are using Java/Spring, Kotlin, AWS, Lambda, Postgres, NoSQL, Kafka, and much more. Our company is still young so this role will get a chance to work across the entire backend and help bring our product to market. This is a high-impact/high ownership role and is expected to grow as our company does.

What you'll do

  • Design, architect, and build Java/Kotlin microservices in an API first way

  • Collaborate with design, product, and other engineers to execute on our product roadmap

  • Assist in setting up testing, pipeline, infrastructure, and deployment pipelines to ensure we can build and deploy fast and predictably

  • Ensure our software is working correctly and fix any customer issues with passion and dedication.

Qualifications

Who you are

  • Someone who builds microservices-based cloud products and platforms.

  • A creator of beautiful REST API and someone who's willing to debate the most RESTFul way to describe an API

  • You live and breath automation, can't live without a robust deployment pipeline, and can prove your code will work when it gets to production

  • 8+ years of software engineering experience

  • 5+ years recent experience Java

  • 3+ years AWS experience with some combo of EC2/ECS/RDS/Lambda/DynamoDb

  • Comfortable modeling data in both relational and non-relational databases, and know when to use them

  • A person who's obsessed with customers and takes ownership for putting the customer first

Things we'd like you to have, but it's ok if you don't

  • 3+ years working on enterprise, billing, CPQ, finance, or other business software

  • Have deployed a GraphQL API to production

  • Experience working with remote teams on complex software experiences

  • Experience with JavaScript/React and how a modern frontend interacts with APIs

Additional Information

Benefits

  • Medical, dental and vision insurance 

  • 401k participation

  • Unlimited, flexible PTO for exempt employees

  • Company sponsored outings
