We are a trusted source of information for tech buyers, delivering advice and facilitating connections between our buyers and the world’s leading sellers of business technology. 

Headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, we are a remote-first company with more than 20 digital publications and over 200 global team members in the US, UK, Singapore, Australia, and the Philippines. We’re proud to have been repeatedly recognized as one of America’s fastest growing private companies by Inc., as well as a Tennessee top workplace.

We ship frequently, operate within AWS-based infrastructure, and expect engineers to take responsibility for quality and maintainability across the stack. We embrace AI-assisted tooling and modern development practices.

This role requires strong backend depth, the ability to contribute across the stack when needed, and comfort balancing delivery speed with system reliability in a distributed environment.
