We're building the smartest way to master backend development by tackling the hardest problem with e-learning: boredom. We're a small team of developers who love to make the process of learning as fun and hands-on as it can be.
None at the moment! Check back later please!
Send an email to lane at boot .dev with:
- Your resume
- Links to some of the creative/educational work you've done
- A personal note about why you're interested in working with us
- Backend: Go, Docker, k8s, Postgres, GCP, Pub/Sub
- Frontend: Nuxt/Vue 3, TypeScript, Tailwind, Pinia, Vite, Vercel
- Blog: Hugo, Tailwind, Vercel, Git
We don't know you yet, but if you're going to enjoy working with us, you'll probably have some of the following traits:
- You love to teach and share your knowledge with others
- You like to hang out in Discord
- You enjoy working remotely most of the time
- You like to build with the latest technologies and aren't afraid to learn new things
- You get stuff done when no one is looking
- You relentlessly ship projects that you're proud of
- You're a good writer and can explain complex topics in simple terms
- You love video games. Bonus points for DotA, Starcraft, World of Warcraft or Age of Empires
- You love a good fantasy story. Bonus points for Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, and The Stormlight Archive
- We grew roughly 10x in 2023
- Boot.dev was originally a side project, but we're now a full-time team of 6.
- We raised $330,000 dollars from an angel investor, but are now profitable and have a nice buffer of cash in the bank.
- We do not have plans to raise more money. We want to grow responsibly and build a sustainable business that provides value to our students.
- We like to play. We play video games, magic the gathering, eat together when possible and even take trips together when we hit our goals.
- We don't have plans to quickly sell the company or go public. It could happen, but it's more likely that we'll distribute profits to the team and owners.
