Apply to be on the team.

Syntria Labs is a small software company that builds for clients and ships its own products. We are looking for people who ship. Work is project-based to start, remote is fine, and being in Orange County, California is a plus.

Open tracks

What we are looking for.

These are the kinds of people we want to hear from. If you do something else and it is good, tell us anyway.

  1. 01

    iOS engineerSwift, or React Native with Expo

    You have shipped an iPhone app, ideally to the App Store. You know the difference between a build that runs in the simulator and one that survives App Review and real users.

  2. 02

    Full-stack web engineerTypeScript, React, Node, Postgres

    You build the whole thing: the interface, the server, the database, and the deploy. Stripe experience is a plus. Caring about how it looks is required.

  3. 03

    Product designerWeb and iOS interfaces

    You design screens people can use without a tutorial, and you can explain why every element is where it is. Designing in code is a plus.

  4. 04

    Something elseTell us what you do

    Writing, video, QA, sales. If you have shipped something and you want to build with a small team, send it.

What we believe

Ship real things. Say it plainly. Show, do not pitch.

We build our own products with the same stack we use for clients. If it is not good enough for us, it does not ship.

01

Ship real things

FORCED is on the App Store and the client sites are live. Everything we point at is running.

02

Say it plainly

Quotes, updates, and answers in plain English. No jargon, no invented numbers, no case studies that did not happen.

03

Show, do not pitch

Clients see a working preview before they pay the balance. The work makes the argument.

04

One stack, used every day

TypeScript end to end, React on the web, Expo and React Native on iPhone with Swift where iOS needs it, Node and Postgres underneath, Stripe for money.

What matters to us

Send your work, not a cover letter.

  1. 01
    Things you have shipped.

    A link to a live site, an App Store listing, or a repository says more than a resume. One real thing beats a list of ten.

  2. 02
    Plain communication.

    You can say what you built, what broke, and what you did about it, in a few sentences.

  3. 03
    Care about details.

    Spacing, copy, error states, the empty screen nobody tests. You notice them, and it bothers you when they are wrong.

  4. 04
    Honesty about what works.

    We do not claim a feature works because the code is there. We test it. You should be the same way.

How applying works

Short, and no forms that go nowhere.

Every application is read by the person who would be working with you, and we look at what you sent before deciding anything.

03

A short call

If it looks like a fit, a call to talk about what we are building and what you want to build.

One real project
