NOW HIRING: Chief Technology Officer

Company: Stylust
Website: https://www.stylust.com
Headquarters: Austin, Texas, United States

In a mobile dominant world, Stylust is a text commerce company at the heart of what’s become known as conversational commerce. Where companies have spent the last two decades building retail websites and apps with self-service shopping tools, we’re building ecommerce 3.0 where users bypass the archaic and traditional web-based experience in favor of a text-based, friction-free experience. Shop the world via text.

Text commerce is the future of retail and a tremendous opportunity to get in early on the exploding mobile commerce market. With irons in the fire of both B2C and B2B business models, we’re quickly testing and iterating toward a text-based shopping solution that will look obvious in hindsight.

We’ll know we’re successful when it’s harder not to shop via text.

What you will be doing

As Chief Technology Officer (CTO), you will be driving the creation of the technology that makes shopping via text effortless, actively coding while also managing your team. The tools you create will make the discovery and purchase of products for our customers so simple it will feel like magic, all while empowering our internal team by folding the customer experience seamlessly into our backend CX tools. You’ll be blending technology and active one-to-one support for our customers, while recognizing and integrating the power of tools like natural language processing.

You will own our technical roadmap, the future of our vue.js and node.js applications, and be the advocate and mentor for the engineering team as it grows. You’ll build a team to be admired and trusted with diversity and inclusion at the forefront, with a true desire to lift other people up in how you run your department and execute the company vision.

Requirements

We’re looking for a leader who

• makes technology human
• thrives working across teams and loves a blank whiteboard with product and design counterparts
• has extensive leadership experience, with a deep understanding of how to inspire a team and bring purpose and focus
• champions a customer-focused lens on what the team builds
• recognizes the value and necessity of solving problems with people from all walks of life to create the best solutions. For you, diversity isn’t just a buzzword or challenge, but rather an opportunity to drive creativity, collaboration and innovation
• has an obsessive desire to build products people love, shaping experiences with astounding quality. (“Minimal viable product” as an excuse for sub-par products makes you shudder)
• has strong opinions (weakly held)
• understands the importance of thoughtful and compelling communication, across teams and within engineering
• is a mobile- and customer-first thinker. From a customer’s perspective there’s no difference between product discovery, payments, customer support, etc. It’s all the same text string

Benefits

We’re remote! We’re operating as a remote business for the foreseeable future, meaning our team sits from wherever they want. No problem if you haven’t done this before! We’ll guide you through and you’ll likely never want to go back.

Equity. In addition to your salary, you will be given equity in the company.

Health benefits. We provide healthcare benefits and are working to build a rich benefits package, which you’ll participate in upon release.

If this all resonates, we’d love to hear from you! And please take a few minutes for a cover letter to tell us what draws you to the opportunity here at Stylust.

NOW HIRING: Product Design Architect

Company: Deep Consulting Solutions
Website: https://www.deepconsulting.solutions
Headquarters: Austin, Texas, United States

Automation is becoming increasingly important in the world we live in. It helps businesses to better serve their customers, properly organize their employees, and minimize human error in their operations. At Deep Consulting Solutions we make automation solutions to organize and manage small niche companies and enable them to grow big while staying effective and delivering their best service.

Do you want to be part of a no-nonsense consultancy that grows successful and effective businesses with effective software solutions? Our Global Software Team is looking for Product Design Architects to design effective systems that will run our clients' interesting niche companies. We need flexible and organized thinkers, passionate about effective Software and UX design, to help us craft powerful solutions.

What We Do

We find niche and successful small companies who have problems running their complex internal productions as they scale. The first thing that we do for them is effectively re-organize their operational processes so that they can most effectively attract, service and retain their customers and run their internal production in the way most optimal for quality and profitability. The second thing we do is build and implement a software solution that will administer and enforce the new and improved operation model.

Our Software Team builds highly custom solutions to run our clients operations - which usually include ERP and CRM systems to run the internal company operations, custom web portals to interact with clients and partners, ticketing systems to run support and case resolution operations, and integrated automated telephony to streamline the sales and customer support systems. It is critical for us to build solutions that effectively deliver on the business objective in a highly relevant way, yet are technically flawless and as simple and flexible as possible - thus we always make a point to use readily available platforms and leverage ready-made technologies, such as Zoho CRM, ERP, and Ticketing Systems, along with pre-built components for our front end custom applications. Our design arm of the Software Team focuses primarily on designing software that is functional and pays a lot more attention to functional components and logic of the software rather than its UI and looks.

What You Will Do

As the Product Design Architect, you will design a software solution that will enable to most effectively execute our business models in the client's company. Your main goal will be to ensure that an effective automation solution will be put together and implemented in the business to enforce our optimized models for the client's business. Depending on your level, you will either be responsible for pieces of the projects - or lead a project team developing an entire product being built.

In doing so, you will:

• Deeply familiarize yourself with the client's business and the improved business model we are aiming to implement as provided by our Business Analysis Team;
• Design an effective solution to address the project's business objectives based on custom web/mobile applications, customized CRM/ERP systems, automated telephony, and other appropriate technology base.
• Develop detailed requirements for the Software Engineers and QA Experts to build the technology for your solutions (describe logic, functional requirements, wireframes);
• Ensure that the intended solution gets built and implemented successfully.
• Do anything else you deem necessary to accomplish your result.

Requirements

• We have a tight business to run and our jobs require a certain commitment to results and willingness to accept responsibility for the individual actions on the part of our employees. Therefore, we require our candidates to:
• Understand that an activity by itself is useless unless it produces a useful outcome;
• Be ready to self-organize and self-manage and make own decisions about what to do in order to deliver the result;
• Be willing to re-examine approaches and methods when results suggest that current approaches aren't working;
• Be willing to endure hard work to achieve success and not expect instant gratification;
• Approach matters rigorously and analytically;
• Act on the above.

The following skills/experience will be necessary:

• Experience with successful software implementations in real business applications (web or mobile);
• Strong logical reasoning and analytical skills to do your research, articulate ideas in detail, and solve problems;
• Proactivity to come up with solutions and follow their implementation without supervision;
• A solid understanding of effective software design and good time-management to create solutions quickly and effectively;
• Good verbal and written English to communicate clearly with our international team;

The following will help:

• Experience with CRM/ERP systems, programmable telephony, and other niche technologies;
• Experience with highly complex applications;
• Experience with modeling and design tools.

What We Offer

• High Performance Oriented Management
• The organization is consistently and constantly managed for performance and results. High performers are rewarded. Excuses are not accepted and employees who make them are ejected. Long, unnecessary, bloviating meetings do not exist. Direct, quick and clear feedback is given on everybody's work. The owner personally manages the business and there is little to no middle management present. If you prove yourself to be a reliable and effective employee, you will have all the necessary authority, resources, etc. made available to you in order to deliver your results.
• Results Based Compensation
• Successful projects and results you deliver serve as the basis for financial bonuses. There is a base pay, however, it is expected that team members work beyond the minimal requirements and be rewarded for exceptional results delivered.
• Practical Business Solution Design
• Our designs are primarily focused on functional business-related features that bring real value to the client, as opposed to just pretty applications or websites. Our Software Team works on real, implementable, No-BS applications only.
• Work on Your Own Time
• You can work from anywhere and at a time that best suits your preferences provided that you can deliver results. There isn't a 9-6 or any other hourly schedule in place and there are no time logs made. There also do not exist any time-wasting activities and everybody's time is respected. That being said, the amount of work that you'll need to put in to get results will by all means make this a full time job and require a full time professional commitment from you.
• Opportunities to Practically Develop and Enhance Your Expertise
• We work with many complex and niche companies and our approach requires both a deep understanding of specific industries and effective applications of software in various business contexts, which you will develop quickly. Every project will show you real and meaningful results and provide an opportunity to see how your software solutions perform in real business.
• Growth Within Our Organization
• Our organization is dynamic, growing, and quite new. Employees who prove themselves to be responsible, effective, and motivated will have the opportunities to take increasing responsibilities as the company develops.

Hiring Process

Our candidate selection process is designed to objectively assess people's ability to deliver. We do not have long and pointless rounds of interviews filled with hypothetical questions and we do not make decisions solely by looking at somebody's resume. Instead, we follow the below sequence:

• Job Application Form.
• Pre-Screening Online Skills Assessment.
• Short Interview.
• Practical Test Assignment.
• ​Evaluation of the Assignment and Decision on Hire.
