  • A proven track record of building and running distributed applications at scale, preferably at a product/SaaS company

  • Have a passion for cutting-edge technology, you love to know about latest developments and apply them to your work. 

  • An expert in any backend language; however, you’ll be required to write Golang and some Typescript / Node.js

  • Able to clearly and concisely communicate technical designs and thinking verbally and in writing

  • A compassionate, friendly human being that cares about and respects the people you work with

  • A healthy work-life balance that accommodates individual and family needs

  • Competitive salary and stock options program

Backed by Netlify, Vercel, the founders of Twitter and Medium, Heroku’s ex-CEO, and leading VCs like ICONIQ Growth, Threshold Ventures, and Lead Edge Capital, Sanity is at the epicenter of the modern digital product development stack.
