Overview:
Two Barrels is hiring a Senior Front-End Web Developer for $150,000/year. You will be a traditional company employee. This is a full time 40 hour/week position with company benefits. This is a remote position. Our main office is in Spokane WA, and we have satellite offices in Austin TX and Salt Lake City UT.
As a Senior Front-End Web Developer at Two Barrels, you'll be given large-scale web projects and be asked to break these down into tasks for Junior Front-End Developers and Front-End Web Developers while maintaining focus on larger goals and projects. Our ideal candidate would be someone who has been successful in multiple front-end positions over the years and is looking to mentor a crew of talented, less-experienced developers and help take our websites to the next level. That will require you to be someone who doesn't believe there's only one right way to do things and your mindset is focused on growth, not the way things currently are.
What's in a title?
Here at Two Barrels we don't take titles very seriously. We know for recruiting purposes we need to call our jobs something, so we started with labeling and differentiating them in a fairly traditional way with "junior, mid, senior". However, we've realized that was putting our employees in a box and wasn't allowing us to uniquely identify their individual contributions, strengths and professional goals. Once you join our team the titles kinda get dropped as we expect everyone to work with everyone regardless of title or experience. We have taken the approach of evaluating candidates and employees on a "level" basis. It makes it a little easier internally to talk about growing into the next level without there being this huge chasm between what it means to be a Junior Engineer vs. a Mid Engineer. Our levels have expectations set for each one and it's the responsibility of the manager and employee to make sure there is alignment. We do this through quarterly conversations where we discuss employee progression, if the work is challenging, and to ensure they feel fairly compensated for their work and expertise. Basically, levels gives us more flexibility to help people grow in their careers. But sure, you can post your title on LinkedIn as what makes sense to the rest of the world.

What the Team is Saying
What We Do
Two Barrels is a Professional Services as a Product Company. ( A PSAAP - Duh! ) We run our company via product life cycles. We use tech to make amazing products and invest heavily in humans to help our clients with their business services needs.
Two Barrels is family-owned and operated, employs over 650 good humans across the nation, and services over 3 million active businesses nationwide. As we've grown, we've maintained a 95% employee retention rate. We have no debt, no investors, no venture capital, and no private equity.
What does it mean to be family-owned and operated?
Well, it's not perfect. But growth, profits, KPIs, endless investor meetings, warrants, options pools, vesting, or manipulating employees to be indentured servants in exchange for paper shares that won't make you rich, aren't things we have to deal with here.
We try to do good work and see where it goes. That's our actual mission statement. We try to make our customers and our employees happy. We get to focus on that versus making investors happy. We are well aware of competing with startups, and VC and PE-funded, or worse yet, public companies' total compensation packages, so we bring it up. We are different. Our packages include an excellent salary and 401K to buy stock wherever you want. We try to make our overall benefits better each year as we grow. We offer tough challenges—focusing on the journey as the reward, not the finish line. We try to hire people we enjoy being around.
We're not a platform or an AI cool guy place. We're not software as a service/whatever is the cool thing that gives investors a reason to ask for a higher multiple on their next round of stock dilution. Whoops, I mean, investment for the future.
We make business entity compliance tools. We power over 50,000 Professional Services that do registered agent service, corporate filings, VoIP phones, credit card processing, and various tech products. Here's a few examples of industry leaders riding on our backbone:

We made a CRM system but focused on a whole stack of solutions for our business services customers and now we're pretty busy and could use your help. Thanks for looking!
Why Work With Us
A mid sized company servicing millions of clients, employing hundreds, but being family owned and operated with no debt, investors, VC, or PE in the tech space is unique. We offer stability, flexibility, and an opportunity to make a high impact almost immediately. We don't sell data to third parties. We're extremely open source and privacy focused.
