Who We’re Looking For

  • A contractor who will thrive working with CodeGeek will enjoy working collaboratively, have a knack for explaining technical details to non-tech folks, and be self-directed and autonomous.
  • We are also looking to develop a long-term relationship with a freelance partner. We value getting to know our contractors and how they work best with our team so that together we can produce the best results for our clients.
