Back End Developer

Back End Developer

Unleash is a feature management platform helping development teams experiment faster with new features, with less risk and more efficiency. Our mantra is "create with freedom, release with confidence".

Feature management has emerged as a core component of Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) and Experimentation Platforms, allowing developers to test new features incrementally with a small subset of users, turning features on or off and A/B testing alternatives to gain insights into what works best. Unleash is the top rated open source solution for feature management on GitHub.

Unleash has solid funding from investors across the US, UK and Norway, and is growing the software engineering teams in order to provide a better Developer Experience and more advanced features for our OSS users and Enterprise customers.

We're a remote first company across 9 countries, with a Nordic culture based on trust, transparency and autonomy.
