ABOUT KALEIDOS AND PENPOT Don't see the perfect role for you? Submit a proactive application here!  For spontaneous applications like this, we highly value including a cover letter that helps us get to know you better: what motivates you to join the team, what kind of role you think would suit you best, or any details that help us understand why you’re particularly interested in working at Kaleidos or Penpot. We love hearing what excites you! ----- We defend and believe in open-source and proof of this is that our main project, Penpot, reflects that. We’re convinced that technology isn’t neutral. That’s why we like to shake things up and go against the status quo. Penpot is the open-source design platform for teams that need scalable collaboration between designers and developers. Kaleidos is the company boosting Penpot. If you’re interested in getting a deeper sense of our culture and values, have a look at our website to gain insight into who we are and what we believe in. WHAT DO WE NEED Our team is a mix of tech experts and design professionals, with great agile management skills. We also have dedicated teams in Product, QA, Infra, Marketing, People & Growth, all working together to innovate and improve Penpot. Tech applicants note: we mainly work with functional programming and open-source tools/languages. Full-stack flexibility (comfort with both frontend & backend) is a big plus. At Kaleidos, we keep things flat and self-organized; there is no traditional management hierarchy here. If you thrive in teams where everyone contributes equally, you'll feel right at home. We walk the talk on open-source philosophy: All roles (yes, even design and corporate!) require using Linux distributions as our primary OS whenever possible. We operate in both Spanish and English, so comfort communicating in both languages is essential for all positions. We're proud to be a feminist, diverse, and inclusive company. If these values resonate with you, we'd love to hear from you! Our core team works in Spain time (CET/CEST), so we look for candidates in compatible time zones (±1 hour difference).
