[Hiring] Software Development Engineer @WebPros

Role Description

We're on the hunt for an experienced, self-driven developer to join our product team as a fully remote team member based in the Philippines. You'll take ownership of features from design to deployment on a product people love and rely on — working independently on complex tasks across a codebase spanning Go, C++, and TypeScript, reviewing and assisting teammates, and helping shape how we build software.

You'll have a lot of variety in your day:

• End-to-end feature delivery
• Hard debugging across platforms
• Design discussions
• Code reviews

Qualifications

• 4+ years of professional software development experience, particularly with Golang, TypeScript, or C++
• A track record of designing, building, testing, and maintaining complex software systems independently
• Strong knowledge of Git and Agile project management practices
• Building desktop applications for macOS, Linux, or Windows (experience with Qt is a plus)
• macOS development, deployment, or system management
• Windows system administration (Active Directory, Azure, Intune, etc.) or experience with Windows Kernel APIs
• Working with virtualized environments like VMware, Hyper-V, Proxmox, or Docker
• Managing and scaling cloud platforms (AWS, etc.)
• Designing and optimizing databases like MySQL and MongoDB
• Excellent written English and the communication habits that make remote collaboration work: clear PRs, proactive status updates, and raising issues early
• Fluency with AI-assisted development, using AI coding tools (agents and assistants like Claude Code, Copilot, or Cursor) daily

Requirements

We don't believe in endless checklists of requirements. Instead, here's what success might look like in your first 6 months:

• 30 Days: Completed onboarding and gained a solid understanding of our technology stack. Contributed by delivering smaller tasks, resolving bugs, and assisting with support tickets.
• 60 Days: Developed familiarity with several key areas of Comet. Begun delivering end-to-end features of moderate complexity.
• 120 Days: Taken ownership of features from design to deployment and are comfortable navigating our code base and CI/CD processes.
• 180 Days: Consistently contributing on complex features and infrastructure improvements, reviewing teammates' work, and helping shape how we build software through better code patterns, documentation, automated tests, and smarter use of AI tooling.

How We Work

• Team & Collaboration: Fully remote, joining a globally remote team based (with most based in Christchurch). The Philippines time zone sits just 4–5 hours behind New Zealand, so your core morning hours overlap naturally with the team's afternoons.
• Process: The team follows a Scrum-based process with daily standup, weekly iterations, and regular retros — all remote-friendly.
• Current Team Structure: 1 x Team Lead + 4 x Software Developers.
• Tooling & Stack: Go (golang), C++, TypeScript, PHP, Qt, React, Git, Sikuli, Playwright, Podman (Docker), Cygwin.
• AI-Assisted Development: AI coding tools are a standard part of our daily workflow — for implementation, tests, and review preparation.
• Collaboration & Documentation: Developers contribute to technical specs where needed, share knowledge during code reviews and retros, and work closely with peers.
• Ownership & Autonomy: Developers are trusted to take ownership of their work with direct access to product, support, and leadership.

Benefits

• Opportunities for professional development and growth at a global tech company with an open and collaborative culture
• Freedom to take ownership and contribute to the team's success
• Fully remote role with a flexible schedule built around agreed team overlap hours
• Free subscription to Udemy's library of courses
• An open and trusting company culture that encourages feedback, innovation, and inclusivity

Your Hiring Experience

• Screening Interview (30–45 min): An informal conversation with our talent acquisition team to get to know each other.
• Technical Home Assignment: A short task to evaluate practical skills and approach to problem-solving.
• Assignment Follow-up (45–60 min): Discussion with Darwin Dingel (Software Development Team Lead) and one or two team members.
• Final Interview (45–60 min): Conversation about team culture and ways of working with Callum Sinclair (Product Engineering Manager) and Darwin Dingel.
• Offer Talk (30 min): Final conversation with Callum Sinclair to walk through the offer and discuss any remaining questions.
