Were a lean team with minimal management and big autonomy. Everyone here builds and code is core to what we do - engineers product leadership. We use our own platform we talk to merchants daily and we ship constantly. Backed by Shopify Silver Lake and other top VCs. Profitable and growing.
If you want a place where you own real outcomes not just tickets youll fit in.
Why join Tapcart when you have a sea of other options
You want to be the technical voice in the room - on a sales call one hour whiteboarding an integration spec with an agency dev the next

Youll have a manager who clears the path not one who watches every step
Dont proceed with applying if:
You dont use AI tools daily to work faster and smarter

You need a fully-built process handed to you. This ones yours to stand up
