Who are we?

Hi! We’re jumpapp.com and we’re looking for contract software engineers. Our startup is moving fast, our customers love us, and we have an incredible team of people who are collaborative and deeply care about what we’re building!

What is the hiring process?

We have a 3 step hiring process and it takes about a week.

First, we’ll send a screening test where you’ll have 30 minutes to record your screen building a simple app.

Second, you’ll have 48 hours to build a real feature (as your own app) that we actually need. Anyone who successfully completes this challenge before the deadline will be paid $3,000. It must be a complete deployed & working app with all requirements met perfectly. If hired your first task will be to use your code to finish building the feature.

Finally, if your code looks good, our final step is a short chat with our CTO.

You can and should use AI to help you create this app. We are all in on the use AI and want someone who can make the most of it!
