Careers

Build with us

We hire slowly and deliberately. Usually one person at a time, when a product genuinely needs them. No open-role theater: if nothing is listed here, nothing is open, but we always read strong introductions. We also take on select client work, so tell us if that's the kind of problem you want to solve.

Open roles3 open positions

We do not ship demos. We ship the version that survives contact with real users.

Own the last ten percent.

Small enough that every decision is visible.

Why Caygnus
Real surface area
You own a feature from the data model to the screen a customer touches. No handoffs, and no slice of someone else's design.
Short loops
Weeks, not quarters. You will see what you built in front of real people quickly enough to still care about the result.
Small by design
A team small enough that every decision is visible and every pixel is someone's call. Yours, often.
How we work

These are the same axes we score every engineering submission on. How we evaluate you is how we work, so we publish the rubric before you start.

Read the review scorecard
  1. 01

    Correctness before cleverness

    The core path works consistently, or nothing else counts. Extra scope never makes up for an unreliable centre.

  2. 02

    Fix the cause, not the symptom

    A patch that hides a failure is a decision to meet it again later, with less context and less time.

  3. 03

    Verify before you claim it works

    Run it. Read the output. Should work is not a status, and we would rather hear the failure early.

  4. 04

    Explain the trade-off you made

    Every decision leaves something out. Say what you left and why, so the next person inherits your reasoning instead of guessing at it.
