We're four people, and we like it that way. We hire when a project needs another pair of hands, not on a schedule. Here's what it's like, how the process goes when a role does open, and what's open now.
Nothing at the moment.
Roles open rarely and get posted here first. If you'd like to hear when one does, or you think we should make room for you anyway, send a few lines about what you've built to hello@catalystfour.com. We read every one and reply to every one.
You work directly with the founder or business owner paying for the product, not through an account manager. You design, build, ship and explain your own work, and you hear first-hand what happened when real people used it.
The stack is deliberately boring, so nobody learns a framework on a client's budget and everyone knows exactly how things fail. Your energy goes into the product, not the tooling.
We ship something usable every week and we quote fixed prices. That second part matters more than it sounds: overtime comes out of our margin, not the client's invoice, so we plan work to fit the week rather than stretch the week to fit the work.
Never more than two projects at once. You finish things and see them used, rather than being spread thin across a portfolio.
A sentence or two is plenty. We reply within a working day.
