Careers

Build products that ship

We hire senior people who want direct client impact, no account layer, no deck theater, no six-month waterfall plans.

The short answer

HandsOnTech hires senior product designers, full-stack engineers, mobile developers, SEO/AEO strategists and paid media specialists, remote-friendly with required U.S. business hours overlap.

We are a small studio in Sacramento, CA. If you want to ship real products with a team that measures conversion and rankings (not slide decks) send your portfolio.

The job: ship real products with a small senior team

Working here means your output lands in production, not in a deck. Designers watch real users try their prototypes; engineers demo working software every other Friday; growth leads defend real numbers monthly, including the ones that dipped. There’s no account-management layer to translate you to clients and no junior bench to hide on: you’re in the room, senior peers around you, doing the work your title claims. Remote-first with U.S. business-hours overlap, two-week sprint cadence, and a strong allergy to meetings that could have been a Slack message.

How we hire

The process respects your time: a portfolio or GitHub review, one 45-minute technical conversation with the people you’d actually work with, and (when both sides are still interested) a small paid trial sprint on real work. No whiteboard hazing, no six-round gauntlets, no take-home projects that consume your weekend for free. We hire senior product designers, full-stack engineers (Next.js), mobile engineers (React Native), SEO/AEO strategists and paid-media specialists as capacity demands. Send your work and a short note about what you want to build to sales@handsontech.io.
