OUR BENEFITS

Aside from our people, culture, and mission, Tape is committed to providing great benefits with the unique opportunity for one engineer to achieve founder status, including: 

  • Founder-level compensation: we offer a top-tier package that includes cash compensation, benefits, and equity options. This role can be aligned with that of a Co-Founder and may also include company shares. The final compensation will be based on several factors, including location, the scope and complexity of the tasks performed, and the candidate’s experience and expertise.
  • Flexible working arrangements: flexible working hours. Options for office, hybrid, or up to 100% remote work.
  • Cutting-edge technology stack: modern best-practice TypeScript stack.
  • Optimized developer experience: automated processes & QA via CI/CD, well documented and out-of-the-box developer productivity tooling. At Tape, every dev is able to spin up a running local staging environment within 5 minutes.
  • Daily production deployments: yes, we actually do that.
  • Product influence: shape the product by being part of decision-making processes, design, UX/UI considerations, and even customer interactions.
  • Hardware of your choice: choose between a MacBook Pro or another laptop of your preference.
  • Accelerated learning and development: join the unique opportunity to invest in your personal skill development by working on a small, high-performance team with a constant learning and growth culture. Here, we learned more in one year than in three years at other jobs.
