About SideKix
Starting and growing a business shouldn’t feel impossible or lonely. SideKix is a mobile app that helps people to plan, grow and succeed through personalized dynamic AI guidance, human support and a community built for personal and professional growth. Throughout our history, the world has been built by the few. At SideKix, we imagine the future of our world being built by many. What would we have? What would exist? What problems would we solve if more people had the same opportunities to take action? The same accessibility to resources? Let’s change who gets to build the future.
The Opportunity – Software Engineer
We’re looking for a hands-on Software Engineer to help build the foundation of SideKix: our product, our technology, and our culture.

This position reports directly to our Principle Engineer.

- Build and improve WordPress websites
- Lead post-launch improvements using real user data and feedback
- Dashboard design and creation
- Manage performance monitoring, crash reporting, and security
- Optimize hosting and backend systems for performance and cost
- Write clean, maintainable code with documentation that lasts
What You Bring
- Experience in full-stack or front-end development
- Comfortable switching between code, strategy, and leadership
- Experience with cloud infrastructure, mobile frameworks, APIs, and payments
- Passion for AI-driven personalization and human-centered design
