The Company

Rarely Decaf is a software development studio that partners with established businesses to design and develop custom web applications in a fraction of the time and cost as traditional development teams.

The Role

As a Low-Code Developer at Rarely Decaf, you'll play a pivotal role in transforming clients' business requirements into tailored web applications using state-of-the-art no-code and low-code development platforms.

You'll work closely with our founder (👋 Hi! You can learn more about me here), Product Manager, clients, UX/UI designer, and fellow developers to manage the process of turning businesses processes into bespoke web applications, making a tangible impact on our clients’ businesses.

As one of Rarely Decaf's pioneering Low-Code Developers, you'll contribute to shaping our development processes and culture, enjoying the autonomy to chart your own career trajectory within our growing company. Possible future directions include exploring opportunities such as Technical Lead or Technical Product Manager.

<aside> ℹ️ We understand that our tech stack represents a new approach to development.

Nonetheless, we expect all great candidates to have explored these tools, showcasing initiative, curiosity, and resourcefulness.

Recognizing that great candidates might have limited experience with these tools, we offer a paid, part-time "apprenticeship" experience for this role that lasts 4 to 6 weeks, focusing on learning these platforms. The expectation is that you learn while working on client projects.

We've found experienced full-stack developers typically need only 4 to 6 weeks of part-time commitment to use Xano and WeWeb proficiently.
