About Admiral

Admiral is a small, core team of talented people obsessed with making the ownership experience better for boaters. Our intent is to take the best possible experience, which today only superyacht owners can afford, and democratize it to the 30-70 foot owner operator community. The same service, attention and ease, at a fiftieth of the cost.

Today, we work with the world's leading marina operators, communities and brands to deliver a high-touch, modern experience to thousands of boat owners. Every boater needs help, and we're rapidly scaling to new markets and marinas, and we're just getting started!

Our Founding team has helped build companies like Uber, OpenAI, Bloomberg, Amazon. We're laser-focused on creating an exceptional marketplace, service experience, team, and place to work. And, we're continuously in search of strong talent and experience to help us get there.

We have some ambitious growth goals this year, and the ideal person sees this as an opportunity to grow with the company while helping level-up everyone else around them. If this sounds exciting to you, reach out!

About the Role

We're looking for a Software Developer to help build and maintain the applications that power Admiral's marina operations, boater experiences, and internal tools. You'll contribute to a modern web stack, collaborate with a small and fast-moving team, and see your work go live quickly. If you're hungry to grow your skills in a startup where every contribution matters, this is the role.

What You'll Do

Develop: Write clean, maintainable code across our web applications, APIs, and internal tools. Contribute to features that serve marina operators, vendors, and boaters.

Collaborate: Work closely with designers, product managers, and other engineers to turn requirements into shipped software. Participate in code reviews and contribute to engineering standards.

Debug and Improve: Investigate and resolve bugs, improve application performance, and refactor code to keep the codebase healthy as the product evolves.

Learn and Grow: Stay current with modern development practices, tools, and frameworks. Take on increasing responsibility as you demonstrate ownership and impact.

Preferred Qualifications

• 1+ years of professional development experience (or strong project portfolio).
• Familiarity with backend development (Node.js, Express, or similar).
• Basic understanding of databases, APIs, and version control (Git).
• Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Eagerness to learn, take feedback, and grow in a fast-paced environment.
• Computer Science degree or equivalent practical experience.

Why Admiral?

We're Shaking Up the Boating Space. Our goal is to transform the modern ownership experience of boat owners across the world through efficient ops, convenient tech, and incredible vendor experiences; paving the way for a multi-billion dollar marketplace. Every boater needs Admiral. With the force of our core team, dozens of top brands and hundreds of happy boaters, we're only scratching the surface.

We're Growing Fast. Last year we grew revenue over 10X—and no, that's not a typo! We're still a small, dynamic team, and this is your chance to join at the ground floor to help us build something really special.

We're in Good Company. We have solidified strategic relationships with brands with some of the world's leading brands from manufacturers, to marine insurance, to marina operators. They too want to see the boat ownership experience transform to our vision, and have directly supported us in the progress we've made in our early markets.

We All Own What We're Building. Everyone who works at Admiral will be a part of the ownership structure via equity compensation. We want you to own the company, and treat this like it's yours… because it is!
