WayLit is an immigration management platform focused on the needs of employers and their foreign national employees. We are on a mission to improve our customers’ experience with immigration by using automation to make hiring and supporting foreign national employees easy.

Our stack is made of Django + PostgreSQL running on AWS ECS. The frontend is server-rendered templates with Tailwind, Alpine.js, and htmx. We use an iterative agile process (Kanban) for development. We aim for high quality, well-tested code.

We’re a very small tech team trying to get a lot done. We value excellence, velocity, and communication. We do that by thinking deeply about our problems, having a bias for action, and showing our work and seeking feedback often.
