Lead Software Developer

StickerGiant​ provides high-quality stickers and labels, fast turnaround, and excellent customer service to our customers. Our humble mission is to help people tell their story. Our customers count on us for continuous high-quality products, services, and speed. We value employees who are fully committed to StickerGiant, competent, and accountable to their team, and bring their best every day. We run our company using Open Book Management practices which allows our employees to see, experience, and take ownership of our shared success together.

The Lead Software Developer is a team orientated engineer that loves to teach others. Your technical skills are strong in The Force and team build you must. Our continuous growth has also made for exciting times when it comes to procuring and managing technology across the company. In response to our tremendous growth, we are creating a development environment that is not only scalable but sustainable for our team as well. To that end, the long dog-days of blistering red-eyed coding sessions that you might have felt at other companies - simply don’t exist here. Having happy, healthy, adventurous Giants is just as important to us as providing an incredible experience for our customers.
