We believe the future of technology is a conversation, not a click. Linq builds the infrastructure that lets businesses talk to customers through AI — in the channels where conversations are already happening: iMessage, RCS, SMS, and voice.
We're a small team, we ship code every single day, and we're just getting started.
The role:
You'll build product on Linq's messaging platform — the APIs, the interfaces, the infrastructure underneath. We work across the stack (React/Next.js, Node, TypeScript, Go) and ship daily. You'll own features end to end, and you'll be close enough to customers and leadership to understand why you're building what you're building.
Apply if you:

• Have 2+ years of experience building software professionally
• Can work across the stack — you don't have to be an expert everywhere, but you're not afraid of any layer
• Ship clean, functional code and care about getting better at it
• Like working fast without sacrificing quality
• Are comfortable with ambiguity — you don't need a detailed spec to get started

Nice to haves:

• Experience with our stack: React/Next.js, Node, TypeScript, Go
• Familiarity with APIs — building them, consuming them, or both
• Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, Heroku, Docker)
• Startup experience — you've worked where priorities shift weekly and you figure things out as you go

Why Linq:

• Health/Dental/Vision insurance
• Flexible PTO
• 401(k)
• Wellness stipend, book stipend, professional development opportunities
• Direct access to engineering leadership — we're a small team solving real problems with no layers of bureaucracy between you and the work
• Experience Birmingham, AL — affordable living, incredible food, and a rising tech scene (remote welcome too)
