About Papers
Papers is a software engineering company founded on high-tech talent. We support the full lifecycle of innovative web3 products — from concept to software market fit — building secure, scalable futures for our clients and the internet at large.
With over a decade of experience and a reputation built on delivering for Fortune 500s and blockchain ecosystems, our teams combine deep technical know-how with a mission to enable meaningful, decentralized innovation.
As a remote-first, engineering-driven team, we work with autonomy and purpose. Our culture is built on meritocracy, long-term thinking, and a commitment to quality over buzz. We aim to collaborate with people who love tech for its own sake and want to help shape the future by solving real-world challenges.
About the role
We are looking for an experienced Full Stack Engineer who thrives in a self-managed environment and is passionate about solving real-world problems through software. In this role, you'll work across the stack—from frontend to backend—collaborating directly with customers to deeply understand their needs and translate them into elegant, intuitive, and scalable solutions.
You should be someone who cares about the user experience as much as the code behind it. You will bring empathy into your technical decisions, always keeping the end-user in mind, and aren't afraid to propose bold, innovative ideas to improve the product—even before anyone asks for them.
Tasks
This is a role for a thoughtful engineer who can drive features end-to-end, from conception to delivery, while maintaining a strong focus on code quality, performance, and maintainability. You will work with modern technologies (Angular, TypeScript, Kotlin, Swift, etc.) and contribute to open-source tools and libraries as part of our wider engineering efforts.
You’ll be a critical thinker, a proactive problem solver, and a creative partner to both our team and our customers.
- Build impactful features end-to-end — from backend logic to beautiful, user-friendly UIs — that solve real problems for real users
- Work directly with customers to deeply understand their needs, frustrations, and workflows — and then surprise them with thoughtful, innovative solutions
- Prototype fast, iterate smart — explore new ideas quickly and refine them based on feedback, data, and your own UX instincts
- Own projects from concept to deployment — you're not just writing code, you're helping define what gets built and why
- Craft clean, testable, and scalable code — with attention to long-term maintainability and engineering excellence
- Contribute to open-source tools and internal libraries that benefit the broader engineering team and community
- Collaborate with design and product to ensure every feature feels intuitive, polished, and purposeful
- Continuously improve what already exists — whether it’s refactoring legacy systems or improving app performance for a smoother experience
- Bring new ideas to the table — we love engineers who challenge assumptions and think beyond the obvious
