Ready to own it, build it, and grow it?
About us:
We are Publitas! We’re a remote-first, fast-growing SaaS company helping brands turn static content into digital discovery experiences that drive results.
We’re not about busywork, hierarchy, or hand-holding. We hire sharp minds, trust them fully, and measure success by real results, not noise. If you thrive in autonomy, challenge, and high ownership, you’ll love it here.
This role is for you if you…
- Get excited by taking ownership and figuring things out proactively
- Thrive in a remote, async, fast-paced environment
- Are striving to deliver impact, not just running tasks
- Think in systems but execute with creativity
- Are direct, collaborative, and have a growth mindset
This role is NOT for you if you…
- Need layers of process or someone to constantly tell you what to do
- Prefer “business as usual” over change
- Want a team where mediocre is okay
- Have never worked remotely and think async means “lonely”
- Are waiting for permission instead of taking initiative
Requirements
The work you’ll do…
Take ownership by:
- Collaborating with a cross-functional team (Product, Design, Engineering) to build and improve backend features.
