WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR . . .

Versus Systems is looking for a software engineer to build our web dashboards, support and improve our Elixir-built platform, and build incredible code that changes the ways consumers engage with entertainment. Our product suite allows content developers to create unique, prize-based matches for their users, changing the experience of how we interact with entertainment and media. In short, we make things more fun.

Our stack is based on Elixir, Phoenix, and LiveView. Some applications also use React. We also have applications and SDKs for iOS and Android.

We're a collaborative team with a strong product and engineering culture. We value partnership and creativity. Every engineer contributes to the overall development process, product design, and roadmap of the company.
