7 Roles Open Right Now

Salary bands are listed because you should not have to ask. Working arrangement is stated because "Remote" with no scope helps nobody. Two to three weeks, start to offer — see the full process below.

Nothing here fits? Write to us anyway.

We keep general applications on file and go back to them first when something opens. Tell us what you build, link to it, and name the kind of work you want next.

Life at Degird

What It's Actually Like to Work Here

No ping-pong table in the copy. Here is how the work is set up, and what that means for the person doing it.

Ship Often, Ship Real

Everything we build goes to real users. The gap between your commit and someone depending on it is usually measured in days, and you own that whole distance.

AI Is Your Co-Pilot

We build AI into our products and use it in how we work. Licences for the tooling you need are on us — but a model's output still ships under your name.

Focus Over Feature Creep

Every product does one thing completely. You will not spend a quarter adding bloat to satisfy a checklist, and "no" is a normal answer here.

Privacy-First Engineering

Data sovereignty is an architecture decision, not a settings toggle. You will design systems where data stays local and users stay in control.

Remote, Hybrid, or Onsite

Each role is set up the way the work actually needs. We state the arrangement on the posting, and we do not quietly change it after you sign.

A Small Team, Real Ownership

Sixteen people across engineering, motion, marketing, and support. There is no layer between you and the decision, which cuts both ways — and we think that is the point.

Pay & Benefits

What Comes With the Job

40 hours a week, Sunday – Thursday, with core overlap 11:00 – 17:00 (UTC+6). Everything below applies from your first day, including during probation.

Two festival bonuses a year

Paid at Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Adha, on top of your monthly salary, from your first completed festival with us.

An annual, written salary review

Once a year, in writing, against criteria you were told about in advance. No negotiating in the dark, and no waiting for an offer elsewhere to trigger a raise.

Paid leave that people actually take

10 casual days and 14 annual days, plus government holidays. Leave is approved by default — if we have to decline it, we tell you why.

Parental leave

Fully paid maternity leave in line with the Bangladesh Labour Act, and 10 days of paid paternity leave.

The hardware you need

A company laptop specified for your role, plus test devices where the work requires them. Yours to use for the whole time you are here.

Internet and home-office support

A monthly internet stipend for remote and hybrid roles, and a one-time home-office setup allowance when you join.

A real learning budget

An annual budget for courses, books, and conferences — and paid time to use it, because a budget you have no hours for is not a benefit.

No unpaid overtime

40 hours a week, Sunday – Thursday, with core overlap 11:00 – 17:00 (UTC+6). Release weeks occasionally run long; those hours come back as time off, not as a thank-you email.

How We Hire

Five Steps. No Silence.

Two to three weeks, start to offer. You will know where you stand at every stage, and the take-home is paid.

  1. Application review

    3–5 working days

    A human reads every application — no keyword filter sits in front of us. You get an answer either way, including if the answer is no.

  2. Intro call

    30 minutes

    A conversation with the hiring manager about your work, what you want next, and the specifics of the role — including compensation, so nobody's time is wasted later.

  3. Practical exercise

    4–6 hours, paid

    A scoped, realistic task close to the actual work — or, for design and motion roles, a walkthrough of work you already own. We pay for take-home time. We do not ask for free work on a live problem.

  4. Team conversation

    45–60 minutes

    You meet the people you would work with, and the founder. We go through your exercise together, and you get as much time to ask questions as we do.

  5. Decision and offer

    Within 3 working days

    A written offer with salary, level, start date, and the probation terms spelled out. If it is a no, you get specific feedback rather than a template.

What to send us

  • A short introduction — who you are and what you build.
  • Links to your work: GitHub, a portfolio, a showreel, or a product we can open.
  • The role you are applying for, by name.
  • Your notice period and earliest realistic start date.

Apply through the contact form — choose “Career / Application” as the subject — or email hello@degird.com.

What We Look For

The Six Things That Actually Decide It

These matter more to us than which framework you last used. We hire against them, and we say so at the intro call.

You ship

You have a track record of finishing things and putting them in front of real people. Half-built side projects are fine; a habit of never shipping is not.

You think in systems

You do not just write the code that works today — you consider what it costs to maintain, extend, and hand over in a year.

You communicate in writing

Most of our decisions are made asynchronously, in text. Clear writing, honest disagreement, and proactive updates matter more here than they would in a room full of desks.

You are curious about AI

Not as a trend — as a tool that makes your work better, and one you are willing to evaluate critically rather than adopt on faith.

You care about the person using it

Every decision filters through one question: does this make the product better for the person on the other side of the screen?

You are direct

You raise the problem while it is still small, say when an estimate has slipped, and take feedback as information rather than as a verdict.

Questions

Before You Apply

The questions candidates ask us most, answered here so you do not have to ask them.

Do I need a computer science degree to apply?

No. We have never required a degree for any role and we do not filter on one. What we do read closely is what you have built, how you explain the decisions behind it, and how you handled the parts that went wrong.

Are the remote roles fully remote?

Yes. Roles marked Remote are worked entirely from wherever you are in Bangladesh — there is no hidden office requirement. We ask for overlap during core hours (11:00 – 17:00 (UTC+6)) so reviews and design conversations can happen the same day. Roles marked Onsite or Hybrid say exactly how many days are expected on the posting.

Do you hire outside Bangladesh?

Our payroll runs in Bangladesh, so every posting currently listed is open to candidates who can work legally in Bangladesh. We occasionally engage specialists abroad on a contract basis; if that is you, send a general application and say so.

Is the take-home exercise paid?

Yes. The practical exercise is scoped to four to six hours and we pay for that time whether or not you get an offer. We do not ask candidates to work on live product problems for free, and we do not ship anything you produce during hiring.

How long does the hiring process take?

Two to three weeks, start to offer, from your application to a written offer. If we need longer — a hiring manager on leave, for instance — we tell you the new date rather than going quiet.

Will I hear back if I am not selected?

Yes, at every stage. Every applicant gets an answer, and anyone who reaches the intro call or beyond gets specific feedback rather than a template. Silence is not a decision we use.

Is there a probation period?

Yes — 3 months, on full salary and full benefits, with a written check-in at the halfway point so nothing at the end is a surprise. Probation runs both directions: it is as much your evaluation of us.

What if none of the open roles fit me?

Send a general application. Tell us what you build, link to the work, and name the kind of role you are after. We keep those on file and go back to them first when something opens — several of the team joined that way.

Equal opportunity at Degird

Degird hires on the strength of your work. We do not screen on gender, religion, age, ethnicity, disability, marital status, or where you went to school — and we will make reasonable adjustments to any stage of our process if you tell us what would help. If something in this posting is a barrier rather than a requirement, say so in your application and we will look at it.

Ready When You Are.

Have a look at what we have shipped and how we document it. If that is the standard you want to work to, we would like to hear from you.
