About Panther
Panther is the all-in-one platform to employ and pay global teams. We take care of all the heavy lifting involved in international hiring, payroll, benefits, and compliance, so companies can employ incredible people from around the world, and let their employees work from anywhere. — without any of the red tape.
Some of Silicon Valley’s sharpest minds are funding us to be the bedrock of global, distributed teams. We’re funded by Tribe Capital, Naval Ravikant, Eric Ries, Soma Capital, and founders and executives from Stripe, SpaceX, Plaid, Drift, Fast, and more.
The Role
We’re looking for back-end engineers with passion, grit, and integrity to build the core of Panther products, services and APIs in spectacularly robust fashion.
As a platform company powering businesses all over the world, Panther processes payroll, automates compliance, administers benefits, digitizes agreements, and helps companies globalize. Behind the scenes, Panther integrates with local employment and bank partners and builds out the infrastructure to facilitate employment across borders.
In this role, you’ll get to:
- Design, build and maintain services and systems across Panther’s product lines
- Debug production issues across services and multiple levels of the stack
- Work with engineers across the company to build delightful features that span various parts of the system
- Collaborate with our business, sales, and operations teams to understand and solve our users’ pain points.
- Improve engineering standards, tooling, and processes
You may be fit for this role if you:
- Have enjoyed 5+ years of experience as a back-end developer, and are comfortable dealing with lots of moving pieces.
- Think deeply about systems and services and write high-quality code. We work mostly in Typescript, with some NestJs and Prisma.io. However, languages can be learned: we care much more about your general engineering skill than – knowledge of a particular language or framework.
- Hold yourself and others to a high bar when working with production systems.
- Are naturally curious and willing to take a step to learn something they don’t have experience in.
- Thrives in a distributed, collaborative environment involving different functions, stakeholders, and subject matter experts.
Why You Might Be Excited About Us
- 100% remote-first, global team: we’re committed to talent, not location, and we believe in trust and autonomy
- 2x annual team retreats (when we start traveling again)
- It’s life-work balance, here: not the other way around
- Everyone’s an owner: stock options for a team that helps Panther grow
- Make a difference: help us build a future where talented people from around the world have access to flexible jobs that help them earn a great living
Why You Might Not Be Excited About Us
- Intensity: We are a young company with < 50 people, so if you like more established companies with a plethora of resources, this role isn’t for you
- Change: Change is good; in fact, if we are not changing, we are not growing fast enough
- Ambiguity: You should be comfortable with a sprinkle of chaos. This is not the kind of job where you show up and are told exactly what to do every day
Benefits and Perks
- competitive salary
- stock options
- unlimited PTO with recommended minimums
- employee benefits
- private health insurance
- 2x annual team retreats (when we start traveling again)
Location
- Live anywhere in the world. Seriously. Try a new country every month, or work from the beaches of Bora Bora for all we care 🙂
