Panic was founded in 1997 as a fully self-funded, independent, and sustainable business. We are a Mac software developer, video game publisher, and game system hardware manufacturer — quite a unique combo — and we're seeking a Jr. Web Services Engineer . This position is for someone who can bring their python software development experience to potentially all three of these areas!

- Balancing the needs and priorities of multiple teams
- Helping to build an inclusive company culture by respecting racial, gender, and other resilient identities and treating one another with kindness.

Location : Over the last 25+ years Panic has grown to include a handful of employees working from all over, but the majority of our folks live and work in Portland, Oregon, and for this particular role we're looking for someone willing to work in our office alongside the rest of our team. Well, at least two days each week — so, it's technically a hybrid. If you don't currently live in or near Portland, Oregon, we offer up to $5K in reimbursement for relocation expenses if you're willing to move here. We can only accept applications from US residents and permanent residents at this time. Salary & Benefits - The estimated salary range for this position is $90K - $100K annually
- Flexible vacation policy
- Guideline 401(k) plan with non-elective 8% contribution (we contribute 8% of your salary to your 401(k) regardless of how much you choose to contribute individually).
- Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, life, and long-term disability insurance
- Health Savings Account fully-funded employee portion with monthly company contributions OR a PPO plan
- Reasonable, life-compatible hours with a flexible, hybrid work environment
- Paid parental leave up to 12 weeks
- Free office gym access and once-a-week off site fitness training session
Inclusion & Diversity Today, our team (and often our industry) is missing the voices of a lot of people who could make our wonderful products even better. We want that to change . We want to broaden our team to include folks whose diverse backgrounds and experiences will inspire and guide our products to new heights. We highly encourage women, people of color, and other resilient populations to apply for our open positions. We work hard to foster an environment at Panic that empowers individuality, empathy, and innovation, and we're looking forward to what you'll bring to the table. Sounds interesting? Please apply! Also, a standard and important Panic note about our job postings. If you read our qualifications, and feel like you're really, really close to hitting them all, but you're missing one — or maybe you aren't super confident or are prone to imposter syndrome and a voice is telling you to walk away — please consider pushing through and applying. None of us here are perfect geniuses or have it together 100% — we're all just doing the best job we can, and we're confident you can do that too. In fact studies show that women, people of color, and other resilient populations are less likely to apply if they don't think they meet all requirements. Panic values these candidates and we want everyone who applies to be successful! Reach out if you have any questions! Note! In the Cover Letter box please briefly introduce yourself, and explain why you are interested in applying for this position. Thanks! To learn more about our company and history, please visit:
