How to Join:

Visit A·Team Application and mention WWR under "how you heard about A·Team." No cover letter needed – we value your portfolio.

What to Expect:

As an A·Teamer, you’ll be invited to projects matching your interests. Work with startups, well-funded companies, or non-tech giants, building ambitious software from scratch in 3-4 person teams. Scope, strategize, and execute, often guiding clients who need direction.

Who We're Looking For:

• Senior developers who left large companies to pursue their craft with autonomy.

• Those preferring consistent contract work over full-time roles, eager to create innovative products with other top-tier builders.

• Independent workers, full-time employees exploring client work, bootstrapping side projects, or searching for their next big thing.

Not for:

• People seeking small gigs.

• Builders focused on simple WordPress/Wix/Squarespace sites.

• Early-career professionals and recent grads.

Our Vision:

A·Team is for the "unhirables" – exceptional builders whom traditional companies can’t hire full-time. We empower you to do meaningful work with your favorite people in small, autonomous, expert teams.

A.Team is forging a new vision for the future of work that’s backed by $60M in funding from investors like Insight Partners, Tiger Global, and Spruce House, future-of-work pioneers like Adam Grant, Dan Ariely and Joseph Fuller, cultural leaders like Jay-Z’s RocNation, and founders and execs from CAA, Apollo, Upwork, Fiverr, and SpaceX.
