What You'll Love About Working AT Bolt Farm

• BUILD REAL TOOLS FOR REAL PROBLEMS

• This is not theoretical software work. You'll build systems people actually use to make the business run better.

• USE AI AS LEVERAGE

• We want builders who are already using tools like Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, or similar to move faster and think better.

• WORK CLOSE TO THE BUSINESS

• Feedback loops are tight, users are accessible, and the impact of what you build is visible quickly.

• AVOID CORPORATE TECH BLOAT

• No endless committee work or over-engineered nonsense. We care about practical solutions that ship.

• HELP CREATE THE OPERATING SYSTEM FOR A GROWING COMPANY

• Your work will help connect teams, reduce friction, and make BOLT FARM more scalable.

• YOU KNOW YOU'RE A GREAT FIT FOR THIS ROLE IF...

• You like turning messy, open-ended problems into working tools. You are comfortable asking questions, understanding how work happens today, and building something better.

• You are not looking for a narrow ticket queue. You want to build across the system, move quickly, use AI heavily, and ship useful internal software that helps the business operate smarter.

• THE CORE MISSION

• Build internal tools, automations, and AI-assisted systems that reduce friction, improve execution, and help BOLT FARM scale with better infrastructure.

• WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

• BOLT FARM is growing, and growth creates operational complexity. The technology team helps solve that by building smarter internal systems, connecting workflows, and replacing disconnected manual processes with practical tools.

• This role is for a builder who can work from business context to technical solution — not just write code in isolation.

• KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Build internal tools, workflows, and automations that solve real operational problems across the business

• Turn open-ended requests into practical solutions that improve speed, clarity, and execution

• Contribute to full-stack development work in a JavaScript and TypeScript environment

• Build and improve applications using frameworks and databases similar to Next.js and Postgres

• Use AI-native development tools as a core part of the build process

• Work across the system from data layer to end user, not just one narrow part of the stack

• Debug, troubleshoot, and refine systems in both local and production environments

• Help move solutions from development into production using sound deployment and production-readiness practices

• Prototype, test, and improve solutions based on real user feedback

• Help create a more integrated internal software environment that reduces reliance on disconnected third-party tools

• WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

• Useful internal tools ship quickly and solve real business problems

• Teams spend less time fighting disconnected systems, manual workflows, and unclear processes

• AI becomes a real development multiplier, not a buzzword

• You build with enough speed to create momentum and enough discipline to keep systems reliable

• MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

• 5+ years of professional experience building software, automations, internal tools, or technical products in JavaScript or TypeScript environments

• Recent hands-on use of AI-native development tools such as Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot, or similar as a meaningful part of a real shipping workflow

• Clear examples of how AI tools improved speed, debugging, prototyping, code generation, or delivery quality

• Working knowledge of Git-based development and testing or test-suite fundamentals

• Experience contributing in a modern full-stack web environment using frameworks and databases similar to Next.js and Postgres

• Experience taking loosely defined technical or workflow problems and turning them into working solutions

• Experience debugging and troubleshooting software in local and production environments

• Comfort working through deployment workflows and production-readiness practices

• NICE TO HAVE

• Recent GitHub or other public project work that shows active building

• Startup, failed-startup, freelance, or entrepreneurial builder experience

• Experience building internal tools, workflow software, or operational systems

• Experience in booking, scheduling, service operations, or other workflow-heavy environments

• A pattern of building side projects, hobby projects, or exploratory technical work outside of core job responsibilities

• Clear signs that technology is a genuine long-term interest, not just a narrow job skill

• WHO THRIVES HERE

• People who thrive here are practical builders. They are curious, resourceful, AI-native, and comfortable figuring things out without needing every detail handed to them.

• They enjoy solving business problems, not just technical problems. They can move from ambiguity to execution and care more about shipping useful systems than chasing perfect architecture.

• If you want to build tools that make a real business faster, cleaner, and smarter, this is your seat. 🚀
