Hi there,

All the best, Weronika

> 20-hour work week

Wowza, that's amazing. I'd love to grab a coffee sometime and pick your brain on how it's working and any pitfalls you've found - I'd love to be able to implement something like that in my next startup.

Sure, if you're in Seattle I'd be happy to meet up. We also get to the bay area fairly frequently.

I'd love to take you up on this offer as well... sdm350 at gmail

Yep, I live in Ballard and work downtown - adrian at adrianpike.com!

Below it says 20h of remote work, so that might just be that.

20 hours of remote work, but that's all the work we expect. The job is 100% remote.

We really believe that the 40 hour work-week is antiquated when it comes to the tech space and that having people sitting in a chair 9-5 doesn't do anything to help us be more productive.

Totally agree with this. I always did 40 hour work-week, but recently had a child and reduced to 20 to manage his first months. I produce almost the same, but now my rss feed and youtube queue is full. Just lost my time doing nothing.

That is awesome!

Technically it says 20 hours of billable work. I'm no consultant, but sometimes 20 hours of billable work is much more than 20.

Oh yeah... Noah's old blog post mentions billable time, but our stance has since evolved that a work week is just 20 hours, billable or not. If we're doing internal work for the company, we still track and time it to make sure we aren't going over our limit.

Hello,

I've seen this posting at "We Work Remotely" and was curious if I could get in touch and ask some questions? I'm eager to learn more about the opportunity!

I live in Seattle so meeting could be fairly easy - thanks!

-Nikko

Hey Nikko!

Feel free to reach out to me (noah at apsis dot io) and we can setup a coffee or a call or something.

Cheers!

Awesome, thanks!

anybody i should email personally? you guys sound really chill and maybe i can help you in some of your HR(diversity) goals you mention on your site. Peace!

You can email me ([email protected]) if you've got any questions! Please use the link at the bottom of the job page to actually apply though.

Love the 20h work week!

This sounds way cool! Is there a physical HQ to work from in Seattle, or do Seattle employees all work from home/find their own workspaces?

There's a physical office in Seattle. It's small but there should be room for at least one more ;)

Of course you can also work remotely whenever you want, even if you live in Seattle.

Did a bit of research. You're in Toronto! What are the timelines? Maybe I could get a coffee with you to chat about the position?

Sure, email me: [email protected]

cool model! is the salary half of a normal job or less than that?

I can't tell if this is sarcastic?

We consider this a full-time job, and our benefits and salary are that of a full-time job. We don't try to compete with e.g. Amazon or Facebook on salary but we are probably at or above the median salary of software developers as a whole.

I personally make about 2/3 of the salary from my previous job.
