Posted 2026-05-06
Remote, USA
Full-time
Immediate Start
About the position
I'm a product founder building a portfolio of apps on the Atlassian Marketplace (Jira, Confluence, Jira Service Management). I'm looking for one skilled developer to own the technical side of this work long-term — from building and launching new apps to maintaining and improving existing ones. This is not a short-term project. I'm looking for someone who wants to grow with a product business and take genuine ownership of what they build.
- Responsibilities
- Building new apps for the Atlassian Marketplace using the Forge platform
- Managing the full development lifecycle — from spec to deployment
- Maintaining and iterating on live apps based on user feedback
- Keeping up with Atlassian platform updates and requirements
- Communicating clearly on progress, blockers, and timelines
- Requirements
- 3+ years of experience in backend or full-stack development
- Solid experience with JavaScript or TypeScript (required for Forge)
- Familiarity with the Atlassian ecosystem — Jira, Confluence, or Forge is a strong plus
- Strong logical thinking and problem-solving — you should be comfortable breaking down complex requirements independently
- Experience working remotely and asynchronously — you manage your own time well
- Clear written communication in English — this is how we work day to day
- Someone who flags problems early rather than going quiet
- Nice-to-haves
- A degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field is strongly preferred.
- Benefits
- Stable, permanent monthly salary paid on time every month
- Fully remote — work from anywhere
- Flexible hours — I care about output, not when you work
- Long-term engagement — I'm building a portfolio, not a one-off project
- Direct communication with the founder — no corporate layers
