About Me

I'm Antoine, engineer, entrepreneur, artist. I started my first solo software AfterCodecs in 2017 and have been running Autokroma.com since then. I'm responsible for everything at my company, from the first line of code down to every sentence interacting with the final user. I've been traveling as a digital nomad for 8 years, working remotely on the go while visiting the world, doing many sports and digital hobbies.

I'm looking for new software developers to help me improve Autokroma software. Recently I decided to stop hiring developers remotely. With a new office downtown Porto, my current goal is to create a good team, and have it, me, and Autokroma grow all together.

The Work to be Done

We need to integrate payments processors such as Stripe payments on our website to have our own eCommerce platform.

We do video editing software in C / C++ / JavaScript on Windows and macOS. Our website is made with JavaScript, TypeScript, and the Deno runtime. Our code is not difficult per se, we don't use that much advanced features (or they are already coded and you can reuse them). It's the software development environment that is complicated, with lots of GUI to navigate, edge cases to take into account, OS / platforms differences, weird behaviors to study, black box software to interact with such as Adobe software, undocumented requirements, and code to be cleaned without breaking legacy features. Nothing that a clear mind cannot navigate effectively, if taken seriously. Web work includes our website but also panels for video editing software that uses web technologies through CEP Chromium.
