Fullstack Lead Engineer (Rails, Vue, Aws)

About usWe are a bootstrapped, distributed company that builds products to help people in small businesses do better work.
We're looking to bring in someone to work together with us (not for us) and lead the software engineering side.
Our goal is to build a pleasant work environment and a sustainable business.
Our current focus is on Pixie (https://www.usepixie.com), a Basecamp-style SaaS for accountancy firms.
We see a path to expand to other professional services down the line, like legal, etc., but currently, this is the market segment we understand better.
Pixie's just launched and is off to a great start; feedback is positive and encouraging.

This is a hands-on software engineering role, with a salary of up to £75,000 p.a.
depending on experience.
As part of the leadership team, you'll have shared control of our products and roadmaps, get a direct line to customers, and exposure to as many aspects of the business as you want.
As we grow, we hope to work together in building a small engineering team around you.
