Why You'll Love Working at Uplift

Enjoy a healthy work-life balance, like everyone else at the company.
Embark on your own self-driven career path with opportunities for positions like tech lead or client-facing roles to drive product features.
Work on many different projects and cross-pollinate all the lessons and solutions.
Work remotely: avoid the time and energy drain of a commute. Uplift has been remote-first since inception–we’re really good at remote collaboration, and always getting better.
Get together in person once a year for a company off-site.
Indulge in the freedom to design your own work schedule; whether that includes a four day work week, evening hours, or whatever suits you and your lifestyle, so long as it's clearly communicated.
You get access to Paul & Marius, two of the brightest minds in engineering & consulting.
We do the heavy lifting of finding and qualifying projects (you’re welcome to help or bring in your own, if that’s a skill you enjoy sharpening), and offer a collaborative environment and shared resources to help you take on bigger contract projects than you’d be able to take on your own.
Uplift has no outside investors, and thus no one who can dictate the future of our company or our products. We have ultimate freedom in the projects that we choose.
As a member of our team we value your opinion. We also respect the skills you bring to our company.
