Worldwide, REMOTE, Full time, $100k-$170k. Senior software engineer on https://www.draw.io

We're a small, all engineering team looking for a strong developer with experience building complex web apps in Vanilla JS.

You will need to be a strong starter and able to work effectively in a remote team (no offices here).

Everything you produce will be open source, https://www.github.com/jgraph/draw.io. We're 7 digit annual revenue from licensing the tech (much of this is profit) and have no external investment or debt.

There's no real hierarchy in the team, no performance reviews and the rest of the crap that bored commercial folks invent. But you will be expected to deliver high quality code, well tested with heavy attention to detail.

We don't do roadmaps, either, it's ready when it's ready. Timezone-wise, we're all central and Western Europe. The majority of your working day needs to overlap ours. We're not saying what time difference is the limit, but as you go past +/- 4 GMT, you'd need to be thinking about moving your working day hours to work here.

Apply with CV to jobs@jgraph.com



We've had 320 applications so far. We'll try to respond to everyone, but there's a ton of applications that simply haven't read what I wrote above. You need to address the time-zone issue if you're in the US or Asia, and you need to show strong, recent, professional JS experience.


congrats ahead of time to whomever lands this gig... :)


Yes, this sounds like paradise


One of the best diagramming tools. Love your product. Thanks for the awesome free tool.


I know a lot of software engineering students here in Denmark who use your product frequently. It's a good product; thank you!


That is impressive, it's like rational rose or visio on the web.. one to bookmark for sure. I like the idea of a recipe layer on top of this, so you can remix diagrams.

Great work


Commenting just to say had this is a great startup story.


I love bootstrapped startups! Is most of your revenue from Confluence plugin licensing? I couldn't find a price for the product anywhere.


It's 100% from licensing the tech to another company that sells the Confluence plugin.

We don't "sell" anything, thus no non-commercial functions in company.

But, we've also 90k unique users using the free online version daily. You can be part of getting that to 1M :)


Is draw.io actually Gliffy or is it a clone of Gliffy?


Neither, our tech stack pre-dates Gliffy.


I have used draw.io a few times for creating flow charts and some architectural diagrams. I should say, I really loved it.


I'm one of your users! Great software and experience btw;)


one more from your fanclub. Great product. love from INDIA :)
