Careers
We’re growing fast and we’re looking for some amazing folks to join our team. We’re currently hiring for two positions: a senior level position for a rockstar engineer+communicator, and a mid level position for a seasoned web engineer. Details on both positions are below.
Who are we?
Exygy is a SOMA-based boutique development shop. We build custom software for the web and for the phone. We work with exciting startups, established web businesses, social enterprise, foundations, non-profits, and more. We work on cool projects for our clients and when we have time we do internal projects based on our own favorite ideas. Some of our work is listed at the end of this post so you can get a feel for what we do. Our work has been featured nationally: in the New York Times, on TechCrunch, on the Huffington Post, and even in the Colbert report.
Working with Exygy is an exciting opportunity to play with a lot of different technologies, see a lot of different projects, and work within the entire project development lifecycle. You’ll work with entrepreneurs — both seasoned and new — and with amazing social impact organizations. We are young and fun, but not too young and too fun :) It’s sort of a startup environment without a lot of the risk of being at a startup — we pay you real money, we’re cash flow positive, and we’re not seeking funding. We have a great open office space in SOMA and you’ll be part of a team of good folks who enjoy each other and enjoy the work they do.
A selection of our work is at the bottom of this page and also on the portfolio page of our website.
Current Openings
Sr. Web Production Engineer
You’re a PHP or Rails developer who loves the web and loves developing front+back-end code that is well-tested, elegant, and kicks machine butt. In addition to being a super geek you have to love humans. You’ll be managing other developers, writing some code yourself, and working directly with our fun clients. You’ll need to be an excellent developer and an even better communicator — a rare combination.

Nice to Haves:

- Mobile development — native or web — would be rad
