Most clients live within an hour's drive and come in for reviews twice a year. Small business owners and physicians make up a large share of the client list.

You can work from home anywhere in Pakistan. We have no office requirement. We keep meetings to a minimum and work mostly async. Equipment is provided, including a laptop.

Responsibilities:

• Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks.
• Update the README and internal Confluence pages when you change how something works.
• Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same.
• Fix bugs from the Jira backlog, starting with small, well-defined tickets.
