Here’s what developers say about us
Ben Simon:
Full-Stack Engineer
The thing about Gun.io is that they’re just so…human. At every step in the process, I’ve been a Slack message away from a person who genuinely wants to help me succeed. From helping me set up my profile, to understanding why I didn’t get gigs I applied for, to supporting me during the project. It’s like I’ve been upgraded to First Class when I was totally expecting to fly Coach.
Umar Mirza:
Full-Stack Engineer
As an independent contractor, I had to deal with much more than just coding. Gun.io took away all the hassle of remote work management and left me with just the part I love: coding! With Gun.io I got exciting job opportunities, lucrative hourly rates, and timely payments. There is nothing more a developer could ask for.
Arthur Kay:
Front-End Engineer
Gun.io has made it easy for me to find meaningful part-time gigs and grow my freelance business! Their platform connects me with highly-vetted companies and projects, allowing me to spend less time on sales/marketing/billing and more time just writing code. Best of all, most gigs allow me a flexible schedule so I can deliver my best work on my terms. As a freelancer I cannot recommend Gun.io more highly.
Darko Bozhinovski:
Full-Stack Engineer
What I find most valuable is the approach Gun.io has with the people that find work via Gun.io. It’s wildly different from what most of the competition does, and it’s a great experience for anyone that may want to find work remotely. The projects are great too, but what shines for me personally is the team behind Gun.io and the way they treat us as freelancers.
