Remote (U.S. preferred) – 1099-NEC Contract

About Intellisar

Intellisar is building the next-generation AI-driven SaaS platform combining CRM, embedded payments, POS-style commerce, and intelligent automation for multi-location businesses.

  • We Believe Humans are the most precious resource on Earth — not profits
  • Long-term alignment beats short-term financial pressure
  • Building without venture capital or angel investors keeps our mission pure
  • We proudly vow to never accept outside VC or angel funding. This ensures our company grows with intention, sustainability, and respect for the people who build it.

About the Role

We are seeking a Founding Engineer to help architect, build, and deploy Intellisar from the ground up. You will own major technical systems end-to-end and directly shape the product, platform, and technical vision.

  • Full-stack SaaS web application development
  • Multi-tenant architecture for businesses with multiple locations
  • CRM, automation, and workflow systems
  • Embedded payments and transaction flows
  • Scalable cloud infrastructure and deployments
  • Performance, security, and production readiness

Compensation Model

  • 1099-NEC Independent Contractor: All positions are structured as 1099-NEC independent contractor engagements. You will be paid based on agreed hourly or project-based milestones. As a 1099-NEC contractor, you maintain full independence, set your own schedule, and receive tax advantages associated with self-employment. Health insurance is not included - contractors are responsible for their own coverage.
  • Lifetime Profit Royalty (No Equity): Instead of traditional equity, you will receive a percentage of company profits once specific revenue milestones are reached. Paid indefinitely — even if you later leave the company. You help build it - you benefit forever.

Lifetime Employment Policy

At Intellisar, we operate under a Lifetime Employment Philosophy. Our commitment:

  • No layoffs for financial optimization
  • No firing due to restructures
  • No job loss because of market cycles

We believe stability creates better humans, better work, and better innovation.

Ideal Candidate

You May Be a Great Fit If You:

  • Are a strong full-stack engineer with SaaS experience
  • Have built production web apps end-to-end
  • Understand scalability, security, and cloud infrastructure
  • Enjoy ownership and long-term vision
  • Are currently employed but want to build something meaningful on the side

Skills & Technologies

  • Modern frontend frameworks (React, Next.js)
  • Backend APIs and databases (Node.js, PostgreSQL)
  • Payments infrastructure (Stripe)
  • Multi-tenant SaaS systems
  • Cloud deployments (Vercel, AWS)
  • Security and authentication

Why This Is Different

  • No VC pressure
  • No short-term exits
  • No "build fast and flip" culture
  • Long-term human-first company

We are building a generational company — not a startup lottery ticket.
