Remote Job Part Time

The position will start at around 10 –15 hours per week with the potential to grow, and pay will be set at a fair hourly rate. 

We are a remote company, so you can be based anywhere in the United States to apply, however you will need to be available for some calls with the team in Europe, so being available in the mornings will be an advantage. 

To apply…

Write to hiring@praxiscet.com with ONE example of a responsive page you have coded, along with a brief pitch on why you think you’d be a great fit.

Do not send more than one link or your entry will be disqualified.

If you don’t have much professional experience, that’s absolutely fine – applicants from all backgrounds are welcome to apply. And indeed, we pride ourselves on nurturing those with “atypical” backgrounds, who at other companies may never be given a shot. 

Please do not include a CV – all that matters is whether you can do it. 

There’s no deadline for getting back, but the sooner you do, the better chance you’ll have. 

We won’t be able to get back to everyone, but those whose notes stand out will be invited to take part in the next phase.
