Headquarters: Madison, WI

URL: https://bendyworks.com

Join our remote team of Rails and React developers (US only)

Bendyworks is a small software development consultancy with decades of experience and big plans for the future. We’re looking for developers who want to be part of our growing team because you share our passion for quality, integrity, and transparency. If you love sharing your knowledge and help your team and client succeed, you’ll feel at home at Bendyworks.

We help a wide range of clients reach their business goals. Former and current clients include American Family Insurance, Disney, Getty Images, Moz, and many more. As a Bendyworks developer, you will work for one client at a time, often embedded in their team. You may work short-term on a part of a project that faces a particular challenge, or for a longer period of time on a larger, sustained effort. Our goal is to match our developers with projects that are a good fit for both them and the client.

We work remotely but strive to keep the team close-knit. We value work-life balance with a 40 hour week, and you get regular growth time and a budget for professional development and conference attendance. We equip you with the tools you need to work comfortably and efficiently. At Bendyworks, everyone is seen as an individual and we help you with what you need to succeed.

Our health insurance plans are comprehensive and affordable, and in addition to 10 paid holidays, 3 weeks of paid time off and 2 weeks sick leave, we offer extras you won’t typically find at a company our size, like 6 weeks of parental leave and fully paid life and disability insurance. You’ll find a full list of our benefits below.

We’re hiring software developers who have deep knowledge of either Ruby on Rails or React and are comfortable in the other. We value experience highly and ideally you’ll have used one of these languages for 5 years or more.

In addition to technical skills, you need to be comfortable communicating with a variety of teams and customers, listen well, and maintain a professional demeanor. Good organizational skills and being able to handle changing circumstances are great assets in this type of role. It’s important to us that you enjoy your job and we check in with you frequently to make sure you are doing well.

At this time, we can only hire US residents.
