Rectangle | On-site Chicago, or US remote in SF and NY | Full-Time | Salary + Equity
We're looking to hire a dedicated full-stack engineer at Rectangle.
If you are (or know!) someone who has thought deeply about distributed coordination, have strong opinions on conflict resolution, or get excited about building systems that are resilient to crazy amounts of chaos, I'd love to talk to you!
Over the last few months we’ve been investing heavily in building our internal infrastructure to power automation, integration, and visibility across the supply chain. We’re rapidly onboarding new customers and are looking for an engineer who’s excited to build alongside them.
You’ll be working directly with customers, solving real-world problems, and scaling the solutions you build. The products you own end-to-end will coordinate billions of dollars of freight, and unlock real revenue and efficiency for leading tech-enabled logistics companies.
This is a great opportunity for someone who loves to operate 0 → 1 while also being directly involved in shaping our platform strategy as we keep stacking investments we’ve made into our infra layer.
Stack: Typescript, Go, Kafka, SQL, AWS

> Developers constantly making the claim that the 30% is too onerous
This one is honestly difficult to respond to. I encourage you to donate 30% of your next paycheck to charity. It would be a good deed and would illustrate for you how much 30% is in a better way than I ever could.
> Please point to any proof that the future would be this way
Another stumper. I don't usually claim to have proof about the future. I suppose you'll just have to use common sense here.
> Instead, android shows that these changes are potentially more user hostile
This I just find confusing. Where is the hostility in offering users choice? If your whole point is that nobody would use a 3rd-party app store, then why does this regulation even concern you in the first place? You don't have to use one! Just stick to the App Store and let other people do what they want, then thank them for providing the competition that ends up forcing Apple to lower their fees.
> Developers pretend its about making things better for users when its about making more money for them.
Actually, it's about competition, which is indeed something long considered essential to a healthy economy.
> My friend, they are sitting still _now_, when supposedly GDPR was to fix all this.
Ok, I'll come clean. I work for a big tech company. We had to overhaul a ton of services to comply with GDPR and I honestly believe our customers are better off because of it. GDPR did not magically fix all the problems in tech, but it's a big improvement.
> the one platform that pretends to care about user privacy
This level of cynicism is just so difficult to navigate. Are you saying Apple can or cannot be trusted? I much prefer to enable fair competition so that the best platform can actually emerge. Whether that's Apple or not, if users value privacy and the market is fair, they will be able to find it.
