About Syncio

Syncio is on a mission to make every online store one click away from collaboratively selling and sharing inventory. Today, over 13,000 merchants from 100 countries use Syncio to sync inventory across their expansion stores, retail partners, and marketplaces. We believe that collaboration is at the heart of commerce, shareable inventory supercharges collaboration, and ultimately creates a more egalitarian world.
We’re a high-growth scaleup (Deloitte Tech Fast50 Rising Stars 2021) that’s bootstrapped. We help thousands of merchants globally yet are still a really small team. You’ll be in the first 15 employees at Syncio. How’s that for potential impact and opportunity?

The role

Syncio is looking for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer to become an integral part of our product engineering team and help build the next frontier of commerce.
You’ll work closely with Syncio's founder, CTO, and other pivotal team members, directly shaping the future of our product by integrating your technical insights into our strategic direction.
You'll dive into high-impact projects from day one, using your full-stack expertise to develop and deploy solutions that enhance functionality, performance, and security of our platform.
This role is crucial for fostering collaboration across teams and ensuring seamless communication in our remote-first, multi-timezone environment. You will be a leader who sets the standard for technical excellence and a team player who ensures that everyone stays aligned on our collective goals.

What you will do

Become an integral part of the product engineering team
Work with the founder, CTO, engineering lead, product manager, designer, and CX specialists (basically everyone) to define Syncio’s feature and product set.
Influence product decisions by bringing technical insights into conversations about product direction and technical roadmap.
You will be working on projects start to finish.
Drive technical excellence
Develop and deploy full-stack solutions that enhance the platform's functionality, performance, and security.
The work split is 70% frontend and 30% Backend.
Drive high code quality through robust reviews, automated testing, and proactive resolution of performance bottlenecks.
Take DevOps to the next level
Optimise and monitor infrastructure and manage autoscale and lambda AWS services, but not limited to just these.
Enable cross-team collaboration to flourish across multiple time zones
High-quality communicator and team player in a remote-first environment.
A leader who will be able to push product engineering standards higher.
A self-managing team member who thrives in autonomy and a high-paced, dynamic environment.

Who we are looking for

Love for product and customers - You’re excited about solving real customer problems through well-designed solutions, not just the code.
Full stack expertise - You have experience in Laravel, API development (GraphQL/REST), MySQL, and frontend frameworks like Vue.js or React, including AWS.
GSD expert - You’re someone who ‘Gets Stuff Done.’ At Syncio, we say ‘Show, Don’t Tell,’ consistently delivering results, hitting goals, and end-to-end project development. You set the bar for excellence and reliability, all without needing micromanagement.
Thrive in uncertainty – You adapt and excel in fast-changing, ambiguous situations. While this role focuses on deep code and solution architecting, your versatility could lead to other areas.
Communication and collaboration pro - You’ll have thrived in keeping everyone aligned on the what, how, and why of the development's direction while also being a strong team player and leading the team to success.
Leave no mess behind - you are someone who understands that Syncio operates in a greater environment and that Syncio must intentionally be a net-positive citizen of this environment.

Why join Syncio

We are building the next frontier of commerce; a new category called Collaborative Commerce. We believe that the best type of commerce is through collaboration, and this has been demonstrated through the history of civilisation. Think bazaars, marketplaces, even the ancient Silk Road. We believe that we can enable collaboration in ways unimaginable.
Syncio enables collaboration by making the basic building blocks of commerce shareable across webstores. Think inventory, orders, product attributes, all the key information required for retail to operate. Syncio enables merchants to create its own micro-marketplaces, become a super-distributor, expand globally, etc.
To give you a sense of Syncio’s impact, in 2024, over 70M orders worth US$5.2Bn in GMV was synced across the Syncio network.
And that was 2024! We’re gearing up to make an even bigger impact in 2025.
Internally, we’re fully independent and bootstrapped, so we’re all-in on our team and customers, and not distracted by a board and investors. Our engineering team is not just engineering, it’s product engineering. We want to work with and develop the very best engineers not just technically (you’ll jump straight into the biggest impact projects), but would also be more than comfortable speaking directly to our customers, or helping shape product.

How we do it

We have an internal culture memo called ‘The Way of the Synconaut’. We believe that in the work that we do, the best can be 10x better than the average. That’s what we’re all striving for at Syncio.
You’ll be joining a team that is serious about growth; as a team and as individuals. We do this to best cater to the thousands of merchants globally that we are privileged to help in their operations.
Syncio is a flat organisation that is remote-first. Everyone is empowered to make decisions; where prioritisation and risk management are honed in the Syncio environment. Self-improvement is mandatory.
Our environment is ripe for ‘T-shaped employees’ to thrive. So much so that if your Syncio journey ends, we expect you to have learned enough to start a company yourself!

Benefits

You’ll receive a competitive salary and be eligible to partake in our employee-share-options-plan (ESOP).
Regular social activities such as TedxSyncio talks, games, and team events.
You get 4 weeks of paid vacation, flexibility to take extra unpaid leave, 12 ‘wellness days’ per year, and flexible working hours. We’re all about getting the work done, not just clocking time.
We are a fully distributed (fully remote) company. Work where it works for you.
Syncio is an equal-opportunity employer. All applicants will be considered for employment without regard to race, colour, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran, or disability status.
We're excited and grateful for your interest and application. This role is life-changing because we do things that impact us personally and globally. Strap on and enjoy the ride!
