Full-Stack Developer — .NET + React + Azure — Remote (US)
About us
ShiftForce is scheduling and operations software for restaurants. We've been around a while, we're profitable, and we ship real features to real users every week. Small team — there are no layers of management between you and the work, which means real ownership and real impact, but also means everyone pitches in on whatever needs doing.
The role
We need a full-stack developer who works like an owner. You'll pick up problems from the backlog, ask the questions you need answered, then build and ship the solution. We're not looking for someone who needs every decision made for them — but we're also not looking for someone who treats every ticket as an excuse to rewrite a subsystem.
A typical week might be shipping a couple of features, fixing a few bugs, debugging a weird Azure Function timeout, reviewing a teammate's PR, and pushing back on a product idea that doesn't make sense. Some weeks lean more toward infra and ops — a broken pipeline, a slow query. Because we're small, you'll wear many hats. You should be comfortable solving technical problems that aren't strictly "writing code," and you shouldn't expect a dedicated DevOps or DBA team to hand you a clean environment.
Stack
- Backend: C# / .NET Core 10, some legacy .NET Framework (being migrated)
- Frontend: React, Next.js, TypeScript, CSS
- Mobile: React Native / Expo
- Data: SQL Server, PostgreSQL — real queries, real indexes, real execution plans
- Infra: Azure Functions, App Service, DevOps pipelines, Key Vault
You're a fit if you
- Have 3+ years shipping production code on a similar stack
- Solve problems instead of escalating them — you read the logs, write a repro, check the docs
- Build what was asked for, not what you wish was asked for
- Are comfortable wearing many hats: code, infra, debugging, customer issues, whatever the week needs
- Use AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude, Copilot) as part of your daily workflow — not as a novelty
- Communicate clearly in writing (most of our communication is async)
Logistics
- 100% remote, US-based
- Full-time
- Slight preference for candidates in Las Vegas or Kansas City — not a requirement
How to apply
Email [email protected] with a short note describing a hard bug you debugged recently — what was broken, how you found it, how you fixed it. That's the application. Resume optional.
About the Company
ShiftForce builds ShiftNote +Scheduler, the shift management platform trusted by over 100,000 employees at leading restaurants, hotels, retailers, and manufacturers — including First Watch, Red Robin, Freddy's, Landry's, Tommy Bahama, and hundreds more.
Our platform combines employee scheduling, a manager logbook, task management, team communication, and reporting into one tool that helps shift-based businesses save time, reduce labor costs, and lower turnover. Managers use it to forecast labor, build smart schedules, track daily operations, and keep their teams in sync across locations.
We've been at this for over 20 years. Headquartered in Kansas City and proudly built in the USA, we were founded by people who lived the shift management problem firsthand — the product was built by shift managers, for shift managers, and we've kept that focus ever since. We're a small, profitable, independent company. No VC churn, no constant pivots. Just a focused team building software that real managers use every day, backed by a US-based support team that actually answers when customers call.
If you want to do meaningful work at a company where your code ships to a real customer base and your decisions matter, we'd like to meet you.
