Careers
For engineers who like real systems with real users.
Working here
InterstellarBits is a small consultancy doing senior work on production Meteor.js applications: assessments, Meteor 3 async migrations, performance engineering, and incremental migrations to modern stacks.
It is unusual work in the best way. Every engagement is a running business — real users, real revenue, real constraints — and the job is making careful changes to systems that matter, then writing down what we learned. You will read more existing code than you write, and the code you write will be small, tested, and reviewed.
We look for engineers with strong JavaScript/TypeScript fundamentals and production MongoDB experience. Meteor background is a genuine advantage; deep curiosity about how frameworks work under the hood is a workable substitute, because we will teach you the internals.
We hire US-based engineers for client-facing consulting work. If the description fits, send a note through the contact form — tell us about a production system you have kept alive, upgraded, or carefully replaced.
Depth over churn
One platform, understood thoroughly — pub/sub internals, oplog behavior, the async migration — instead of a new framework every quarter.
Consulting without the grind
Hourly engagements scoped honestly. We sell judgment and craft, not utilization targets.
Write it down
Schema docs, runbooks, and decision records are deliverables here, not afterthoughts.
