About KyLeads:

Our team calls us the most chill place to work and build impactful products while having a meaningful stake in the outcome. You know, you’re more than just a cog in the machine. You should know us as a rapidly growing software company that takes care of its people while giving them room to grow and develop.

Job Description:


At KyLeads, we’re looking for the crème de la crème. Talented individuals with massive amounts of potential who look at complex software engineering problems with joy. You take pride in building amazing products – the kind of product that makes people go “wow.” 

In our organization, you’ll work with some of the smartest engineers out there. They’ll push you to do better work, write better code, and create better processes. Likewise, you should come in with the expectation to do the same. 

We’re giving you a unique opportunity to work with bleeding-edge tech, the most advanced tools on the market, thrive in your professional career, and enter a work environment with no limit on career opportunities. 

We code primarily in html css,js (jquery, vuejs), and Laravel.  We love Github, call it one of our best friends, have an obsession with quality code, appreciate continuous development, DevOps, and robust testing. We may push to production several times a day but we’re not afraid of holding a release until it meets the standard we’ve set for ourselves. 

You can expect to have regular meetings with your team lead and other developers to discuss best practices and how you can grow as an engineer. 

You should also know how to write (or be willing to learn) because you’ll publish about your work and or KyLeads culture at least once a month.
