Our core purpose is providing great experiences helping organizations win. Twin Sun is a Nashville-based software development agency that specializes in the work other shops can't, or won't, do well.
Our clients often come to us after being burned by agencies that delivered unusable work, covered up mistakes, or treated software development as purely transactional. We specialize in project rescue, new product development, and team augmentation for organizations facing complex technical challenges: failed projects that need recovery, ambitious products that require experienced execution, and teams that need reinforcement to deliver at scale.
We're different. We take ownership. We communicate directly. We do what's right even when it costs us. We believe a great experience matters as much as a great outcome. That's why clients stay with us for years and refer others. And it's why we're careful about who we hire: your work directly shapes what Twin Sun means to the organizations we serve.
You choose when and where you work. Our team is remote-first with a Nashville office near Music Row, and we've grown steadily by focusing on the work that matters and the relationships that endure.
We're looking for software developers who want to do more than write code. You'll help organizations win by owning outcomes, working on meaningful projects, and growing into increasing responsibility as you demonstrate excellence.
At Twin Sun, developers understand client goals, communicate proactively, and take responsibility for making projects succeed. The experience matters as much as the outcome. Depending on your experience level, you may lead projects, mentor teammates, or serve as the primary technical point of contact for clients.
You will work on meaningful projects with good people. Here are some things we’ve done:
We use best-in-class tools to build high-quality mobile and web apps. Due to the nature of our work, we sometimes use unfamiliar frameworks on pre-existing projects. Constant work in any one framework is not guaranteed. However, we utilize the following technologies for the majority of our work:
Prior experience with these technologies is nice-to-have, not required. If you're smart and can figure things out, we want to hire you.
We expect developers to use AI coding tools as part of their daily workflow. We're not interested in debates about whether AI belongs in software development. We're focused on delivering value for our clients, and AI tools help us do that faster and better.
But “uses AI” isn’t enough. We want developers who are ahead of the curve. People who've already pushed past the vibe-coding phase and figured out where AI accelerates great work and where it produces slop. You should have opinions about prompts, agents, code review automation, and where the tools fall down. You should be tinkering with the new stuff before being asked to.
We’re not looking for developers who see AI as a threat to their craft, or developers who let AI write slop and ship it. The bar is more excellent work using AI as leverage, not less work, not lower quality.
AI lets us deliver more value, not think less. The job is solving problems and delivering outcomes. How you write the code matters less than whether it works, is maintainable, and ships on time.
We hire and train for any experience level, but the developers who thrive here usually share a profile: they've worked with people before they worked with code. Bartenders, servers, retail floor, customer service, teaching, or anywhere else you had to read a room, manage expectations, and own a problem in front of a real human. That experience translates directly to client work, and we can teach the rest.

Bonus points for:
Ownership
When something lands on your plate, it's yours. You're going to make sure it happens. That doesn't mean you do all the work yourself, but it means the buck stops with you. You lead up and down: the person you're reporting to has the information they need, and the people you're delegating to have full context. You show ownership even when the path isn't clear, when those around you don't, and when the situation doesn't seem fair.
Doing the Right Thing
You're the person people trust behind closed doors. You don't hide problems. You don't optimize for yourself at the expense of the team or the client. You're looking out for the greater good: for Twin Sun, for your teammates, and for the people we serve. When there's a tension between what's easy and what's right, you choose right, and you do it with respect. When your actions cause harm, you focus on what's in your control to fix it.
Excellence
Your work makes people stop and pay attention. You take pride in what you ship, and you're always looking for a better way. Excellence isn't perfectionism, though. It's judgment. You calibrate to what the situation actually needs. You stay curious. You push past "how we've always done it." You share your best practices, raise the bar for the people around you, and expect them to do the same.
Genuinely Helpful
You don't pretend to have all the answers, and you don't need to. You trust that you're a smart, capable technologist, so when you don't know something off the top of your head, you say so confidently and go figure it out. You do the research, come back with a solution, and deliver. You tailor what you do to serve the actual goal, not just the task in front of you. People enjoy working with you. You're fun to be around, you bring good energy, and the experience of partnering with you is as good as the output.
Many developers "just want to code." That's not enough for us. And if you're reading this far, it's probably not enough for you either.
