Who Are We?
Xcelirate develops technologically-advanced platforms which are accessed by thousands of users every minute!

We owe our success to our customers who have seen us grow across a decade, and our talented team who have made that growth possible!
What are we looking for?
You’re a full-stack dev - you’ve been around the block, and you know your way through both backend trenches and frontend battlefields. PHP? Still your reliable sidekick. JavaScript? Sometimes a mischievous friend, sometimes a chaos gremlin, but you’ve learned how to keep it in line.
You work best with fierce independence. You don’t need hand-holding - you’re the one who does the hand-holding when it’s needed. You don’t wait for direction; you are the direction. To twist a phrase: you’re not the one who knocks, you’re the one who delivers.
You live for making things work. Whether that’s a clean new feature, a quirky legacy bug fix, or tracking down why that button refuses to do what it’s told. You like code that’s neat and maintainable, but you’re also practical - you know sometimes duct tape is exactly what the situation calls for.
Building apps is your thing - you tinker, refactor, and optimize because you can’t help yourself. You get a kick out of speeding things up, cleaning things up, and occasionally wondering what exactly your predecessor was drinking when they wrote that function.
And yes, you’re not afraid to dive into the relics. That PHP app last touched in 2010? It still needs love. The JavaScript file with 1,200 lines and no semicolons? You’ll wrestle it into submission.

How We Support Our Contractors
Who We AreWe like to think of ourselves as unapologetic tech innovators; this means we only build stuff we can be proud of. As a progressive leader working across a variety of industries, we have an exciting presence in the sphere of online entertainment.Staffed only by senior professionals, we develop digital products and web-based software applications that aren’t just visually stunning. After all, beauty is skin-deep, and we know looks aren’t everything. We love a tight… security protocol, low latency and a banging user experience. The future of online entertainment cannot come soon enough – we want to Xcelirate it.2018/19 has been the most profitable in our 10-year history. We are aggressively expanding (size matters, only because we dream big), and looking for talented and fun-loving individuals to join us.Doing Better, TogetherAt Xcelirate, we believe that our people make us who we are – and that’s why ours is a culture that is spontaneous, innovative and collaborative. After all, in order to create exceptionally well-designed products, we only hire exceptionally talented individuals to join us in our stunning and brand-new work environment in sunny Barcelona. It’s also important to us to take care of our own – from health insurance and gym subscriptions to flexible working hours and paid lunches with Uber Eats.We also care about fostering a transparent, equal-opportunity, communicative workplace, so that our employees can have fulfilling, enriching careers and grow alongside the company. But we don’t just work hard – we play hard; think Netflix subscriptions, in-house massages and offsite company gatherings that allow us to discover, let loose and recover from the previous week’s hangovers.The Right Way to Have FunSometimes, you need to play by the rules to have fun. We know the importance of being ethical and tenacious – this goes from maintaining a sense of moral correctness to upholding honesty and diligence despite the remote nature of the role and industries we operate in. We are confident, but never complacent. We analyse, challenge and surpass what we do, and how we’re doing it, constantly driving our company and industry to reach higher standards.A Community of CollaboratorsWhat is the secret to our enhanced performance? We believe it lies in our ability to cultivate breakthrough thinking through collaboration between over 40 employees hailing from all corners of the globe. With a ménage à trois... of experiences, perspectives and skillsets, our diversity is our strength, and ultimately an engine for our long-term growth.Rewarding SuccessOur track record of consistent growth of revenue and profit is dependent on the individual efforts of our team – that’s why we believe in rewards and incentives to recognise performance. Think this is a place where accomplishments are bragged about? Think again. At Xcelirate, we value humility. We may be driven by our passion to innovate, but we’re motivated by the hard work, ambition and successes of our peers.Delivering Nothing Short of AmazingTo us, it’s not only about getting the job done – it’s about turning dreams into realities. At the end of the day, we are all about connecting people (don’t we fundamentally develop solutions to satisfy needs and wants?), and our culture dictates that our customers only receive market-leading products and service.
