About Qwilr

Qwilr is creating documents for the web.

Qwilr has set documents free from the skeuomorphs. We believe that the future of documents is online. Not as sharable A4 documents, but as webpages. Not as things we print out (and eventually put into landfill), but as things we view on smartphones, tablets & desktops.

Our work has a singular focus: to make it easier for individuals and businesses to create beautiful web docs with Qwilr. We want to set people – and their ideas and messages – free from static docs that are still at best an updated spin on a 1980s technology. We do this because we know that when you embrace the web, you can do so much more.

Position

We see great engineering as the reduction of complex things into simple things. These initial complexities might include code, abstractions, systems, architecture or infrastructure. We believe this approach, searching for simplicity in complex things, lies at the heart of problem solving.

We’re looking for a Software Engineer to join our team and help us solve problems.

Engineering at Qwilr means:

• Building the features of the Qwilr apps, as well as the systems and infrastructure that powers them 
• Participate in and provide feedback on code reviews for other Qwilr engineers. We love code review because it sharpens our reasoning and grows our shared knowledge
• Ponder, discuss and enumerate different approaches to problems. We are big believers in solving problems early, in discussion, on whiteboards or design documents, before hitting code
