About Skip
Skip helps millions of entrepreneurs and small business owners access funding, build their businesses, and grow faster — all in one place. Over 1 million business owners trust Skip to simplify what used to be a maze of red tape.
We’re now building the next generation of entrepreneurship tools — blending great product engineering, thoughtful UX, and increasingly intelligent systems to help business owners move faster and smarter.
Your Role
As a core engineer at Skip, you’ll help build and scale products used by millions of entrepreneurs. You’ll work closely with the founder, product, and design to take ideas from concept to production — shipping fast, learning from real users, and owning meaningful parts of the product.
Some of the work you’ll do will involve intelligent and AI-powered features, but the foundation is strong engineering, product thinking, and a bias toward action.
What You’ll Do
- Build and ship end-to-end product features used by real small business owners.
- Work across the stack: React / Next.js, Node.js, TypeScript, Postgres, and Supabase.
- Collaborate directly with product and design to turn ideas into shipped features.
- Rapidly prototype, test, and iterate — we move fast and value learning over perfection.
- Contribute to systems that personalize the Skip experience based on business context, usage, and goals.
- Take ownership: you’ll see problems, propose solutions, and ship them.
About You
- 5+ years of professional software engineering experience.
- Strong with TypeScript and modern frontend frameworks (React / Next.js preferred).
- Comfortable working across frontend and backend, even if you lean one way.
- Curious and adaptable — excited to learn new tools and systems over time (including AI).
- Motivated by impact: you want your work to meaningfully help real people.
- Clear communicator in English and comfortable working with a distributed team across the Americas.
Experience with AI, LLMs, or data-driven systems is a plus — not a requirement.
*
*Why This Role?**
- You’ll have real ownership, not just tickets.
- You’ll work directly with the founder and help shape core product decisions.
- You’ll ship to production quickly and see real businesses benefit from your work.
- You’ll join a motivated, global team (including an established Brazil-based engineering group).
- You’ll grow with a company that’s scaling fast and tackling meaningful problems.
