Lead Software Engineer (Web/Mobile)

Do you enjoy programming but dislike a lot of what comes with it? Maybe you’re working somewhere buried in chaos and disorder or bad planning and poor product architecture decisions. Or maybe you just dislike meetings and politics or having to work overtime. What if your job allowed you to focus on what you love? What if your job came with accommodation & internet fully covered so you can live your best remote life?

If you are a talented full-stack engineer with strong C# .NET, Java, NodeJS, Ruby or Python skills, we want to hear from you. 

Every day at Zer0Paper, you will do what you do best: shipping top-notch production code that provides the simplest, most elegant solution to the issue at hand. We want to put you in the best position possible for long-term success.

We use a metrics-driven agile approach. We carefully architect our software before we ask our engineers to jump in. We build long-term roadmaps and carefully curate our product decisions to put engineers’ efforts to their best and highest use. Join Zer0Paper and see the difference.
