About Forward

Forward is a consulting firm that works with independent consultants to help startups quickly scale the maturity and headcount of their engineering organizations.

We work exclusively with independent consultants because it allows us to match work to humans faster and more effectively than traditional consulting firms.

We typically work with around a dozen startups and a few dozen consultants at a time.

You’d be working alongside the CTO and one other developer. If you’re comfortable with rails and/or react they could use some help with their web app too.
