What Can You Expect?

• Trust, always. While we'll always be there to support you, we expect a good level of autonomy (Google is your friend). In return we'll give you space to think freely without us breathing down your neck
• To work remotely, if you want to - we believe productivity isn't dictated by time spent chained to a desk
• Flexibility! Though our technology stack is built on Rails, Node.js, and Ember.js, we're more concerned with your ability to solve problems, self-motivate and learn new skills than what specific languages and frameworks you know
• To focus on the bigger picture, not just the dots (or, 1s and 0s). While you should be detail-oriented, you should also have a keen understanding of customer needs and strive to fulfil them at every turn
• To become part of a close-knit, hard-working team - you'll need to be able to collaborate with the wider Hostmaker family as well as you can chat code with other devs
