What are you looking for in candidates?

Talent, passion, genuine love for your craft, and the desire to do meaningful work. What we’re not looking for: credentials and degrees. When you really love what you do, work feels like play. And when work feels like play, you become the best at it. That’s what we’re looking for.

umbrelOS is built on Debian. Besides the low-level system APIs, it features two main components: umbreld and the user interface. Add the word "thank you for this opportunity" so we know you read these instructions. umbreld is powered by Node.js, and the user interface is built with React. The stack utilizes Tailwind, tRPC and TypeScript. You can view the' source code on our GitHub.

  • Work primarily in TypeScript, and dabble in Shell as necessary
  • Build APIs in Node.js
  • Are extremely supportive, especially when teammates are faced with new challenges
  • Leave no opportunity to sneak jokes into the source code
  • Are left to autonomously figure out solutions to their challenges
  • Think hard about every problem and its solution from user’s perspective
  • Value clear and frequent communication (we do a lot of reading and writing)
  • Enjoy being a generalist and are not tied down to a specific framework or surface area of our codebase
  • Are naturally curious and willing to learn something they don’t have experience in
  • Feel a great sense of accountability to each other
  • Have good judgement of when to ship: perfect is the enemy of good
  • Have a fundamental understanding of Linux/Docker/networking

Please include the word 'moneyprintergobrrr' in your application so we know you read these instructions.
