Envoy | All types of software engineering jobs | San Francisco, CA and distributed | Full-time | https://envoy.com
Our mission is to challenge the status quo of workplace technology. You've seen our visitor registration kiosk everywhere. Now, we're looking around the office—to the mailroom, meeting rooms and beyond—and asking how can we make this better, too? We envision a world where technology is woven through our workplaces, all of it working together to make our time there delightful.

We have 1/2 of our engineering team working full-time remotely with the rest in SF HQ. Continental US time zones are preferred so we can easily collaborate. Here's a blog post about our distributed environment: https://envoy.engineering/building-our-remote-distributed-en...
Our stack is built on Ruby&Rails, PostgreSQL, Redis, Elixir, JavaScript (Ember.js), Swift, and a few more things. We’re currently hosted on Heroku with some AWS and are reevaluating as we scale.
We value being a top-notch organization with a strong engineering-driven culture, and have the same high standards with our code, systems, and people. We value learning and growth (and not being bored) and hire diverse, well-rounded, communicative people we can envision being friends with and trusting. Here are our Engineering principles: https://github.com/envoy/Engineering/blob/master/principles....

You've seen our visitor registration kiosk everywhere. We're on a mission to create the office of the future and visitor management is just the beginning. We’re building a world where you know instantly when packages are delivered; where your office unlocks securely and automatically when you arrive; where you can book a meeting room simply by walking through the door.

At Envoy (https://envoy.com/) we have roughly 33% of our engineering team working out of their homes so I can speak to both what we look for and what we've found that works:
(1) High I/O. Communication between folks on and offsite can be lower bandwidth due to tech, not always face to face or synchronous, and fewer serendipitous interactions. You need folks who love hearing from and reaching out to people, such that they have a bias to compensate for these limitations.
(2) Overlapping time zones. Related to above.
(3) Fully formed, mature human beings. Related to above.
(4) Evidence they've been effective doing it. Not everyone can self-manage and motivate. I, for one, suck at it.
(5) Working experience. It's harder to have less-experienced folks tether to teams in other locations, because by nature they need much more communication both ways.
As a bonus, here's what you should look out for when seeking your next team:
(a) The same stuff as above :)
(b) Unintentional biases. Ask when the meetings are scheduled. What tech they use to "dial in" folks. Unclear differentiation in comp, benefits, etc. (it may be different by location, but there should be a methodology behind it) Even clues like heavy use of the word "remote" (which sounds 2nd class) vs something like "distributed".
Envoy is on a mission to make the office feel effortless. We create technology that does its job, so people can focus on theirs. For us, it started with the front desk. Signing in with paper and pen used to be the norm, but Envoy set a new standard. It’s simple: Now, visitors everywhere are signing in on iPads.
To date, Envoy has helped our customers like Slack, Box, Github and Pinterest welcome over 21 million visitors in more than five thousand offices worldwide. But visitor management is just the beginning: We’re building a world where you know instantly when packages are delivered; where your office unlocks securely and automatically when you arrive; where you can book a meeting room simply by walking through the door.
If this world sounds exciting, we'd love for you to help us build it.
We’re always looking for our next great teammate. Our team is a mix of product engineers creating beautiful, finely polished experiences and folks focusing on scale, reliability, security, and performance. Challenging the status quo of workplace technology is a big problem with almost every type of technical challenge, so we look for fully-formed engineers that love solving problems and finding the best tools for the job.

We value learning and growth (and not being bored) and hire diverse, well-rounded, communicative people we can envision being friends with and trusting. Our projects tend to be 2 engineers max, so trust and accountability is required for us to work. Also helps us keep processes & overhead low. We appreciate that we've built a reasonably-sized, high-powered team so far (61 employees including 29 engineers) and are always striving to be the best place to work we can be.
