Upright Labs builds inventory management systems for secondhand retailers like Salvation Army and Goodwill. Each day, our clients use our software to sell thousands of unique products across the internet.
We're hiring a fullstack engineer who wants to work closely with our customers to build the best inventory management software. The company is 100% remote, boostrapped, and profitable. Our goal is to build the operating system for used goods.
Our stack is based on Rails, Postgres, and React (typescript). We run everything on AWS and Heroku, and build our internal tools with Retool. We document with Notion, chat with Slack/Zoom.

I wanted to chime in as one of the software engineers on the team here to give another perspective (excuse me if this isn't allowed, I didn't see anything in the rules against it).
I think Upright is a really pleasant place to do development. We've got a good team culture, no boxing gloves or overly-zealous standards on code reviews. We maintain a low friction to push changes to production, but we still pay careful attention to quality. Though I'm not doing front-line customer support, I do get to interact with customers to gather ideas about upcoming feature or tell them when bug fixes / features are released, which I find to be really fulfilling. We're not constantly building concrete deadlines just for the sake of deadlines - it's really about "what would be best for the customer?". We enjoy shiny technology when it makes sense, or if it would make the dev team legitimately happier, but we try to keep our tech/design choices pragmatic. I think we've done a good job of embracing and enjoying the fully remote culture (fun on slack, off-topic video calls to catch up, that kind of thing).
Pretty exciting company that's growing fast and adding cool new features daily. Just within the past month, we've had engineers bouncing around between our Rails app, iPhone app, scripting in Lua, and crafting a first-class sprint workflow in Linear (and that's just the start of it). You'll make an impact here! This is a great opportunity to work on a constructive and open-minded product team where everyone's opinion counts!
If you aren't solving as many interesting, complex problems at your current job as you'd like, you should seriously consider applying here. We're a team of problem solvers at our core and we have a lot of fun doing so!
