Tech Lead

About Us

Customs Info is a growing, profitable software company on a mission to revolutionize how logistics companies find potential customers. We're small, bootstrapped, and committed to sustainable growth. In five months, we’ve already gained fifteen customers, and we aim to grow to $1M in revenue in the next two years without any outside capital and minimal costs.

Customs Info is operating in a niche market in the logistics sales space. The three co-founders have strong backgrounds in the space: former Head of Demand Gen at Flexport, former top performing SDR manager at Flexport, former Head of Eng at Rutter API, respectively. Ultimately, this could be a low-maintenance $3M+ ARR cashflow business. We just need your help to get there.

Role Summary

You will be taking over the entire engineering efforts of the company. The CTO (former head of Eng at an a16z-backed company) will be available for support, but ideally, you quickly take over everything, both the fun stuff (setting technical direction, setting the product roadmap, collecting customer feedback, improving any technical systems) and the not fun stuff (fixing bugs late at night, arguing 3rd party vendors down, handling an angry customer).

Requirements

• Be the type of person who never shies away from a problem just because you haven’t done it before.
• Learn quickly and teach yourself new concepts as needed
• Be comfortable setting a product roadmap and a technical strategy
• Be familiar with our tech stack (TypeScript, Next.JS, TypeORM, React, Postgres, Heroku)
• Be familiar with full-stack web development as well as data ingestion pipelines. (Familiarity with scraping is a plus but not needed)
• Write solid code quickly and understand when speed trumps quality and vice versa.
• Communicate incredibly well and proactively communicate status and priorities.
