Posted 4 weeks ago

Summary

We're building Caperity, a resource capacity planning SaaS for project-driven teams. The product is live with paying customers, and bigger clients are starting to knock on the door. To support that growth, we're looking for a developer to join us on a long-term basis as a trusted technical partner. **Who we are** We're a small, focused team with a good spirit and a passion for delivering real value to our customers. We take our work seriously but keep things fun and human. If you're the kind of person who gets genuinely excited about understanding what customers actually need, enjoys translating that into solid technical solutions, and thrives in a small team, we’d love to hear from you. **What you'll work on** Our stack is Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL, and React, deployed on Heroku. You'll help us strengthen the backend architecture, improve performance and reliability, improve monitoring, and tackle technical challenges as we scale. We want someone who takes ownership, suggests improvements and brings solutions to the table. **You're a great fit if you:** - Are upbeat and collaborative — good energy matters to us - Have solid experience with Node.js and PostgreSQL in production - Are comfortable with Heroku and understand deployment, monitoring and ops best practices - Have experience with multi-tenant SaaS architecture - Enjoy working in a fast-moving startup environment where pragmatism matters more than perfection - Are proactive — you flag issues, suggest improvements and follow through - Can communicate clearly - Are US-based ** What’s in it for you? ** This is a ground-floor opportunity. As Caperity grows, so does this role — more hours, more responsibility, and a real chance to shape the technical direction of a product with strong commercial momentum. You'll have flexibility on how you work, as part of a team that moves fast and has fun along the way. If this sounds interesting, tell us a bit about yourself, and please include your current hourly rate.
