Ship Mechanic
Quill Media · Apia, Samoa
About the role
Join Quill Media as a Ship Mechanic in Apia and do meaningful work alongside a small, sharp team.
Job description
Quill Media is hiring a Ship Mechanic to join the team in Apia, Samoa. We're a growing organisation in our space and the next person in this seat will help us scale how we serve customers across the region.
You'll join a small, high-trust team where the work changes week to week. We hire generalists who can pick up an open problem, define the approach, and ship without a lot of supervision.
This role is fully remote. You'll partner closely with colleagues across the business and our customers and report into the relevant team lead. We move fast, give people real ownership, and keep the bureaucracy low — if that sounds like the kind of environment you do your best work in, we'd love to hear from you.
What you'll do
- Take open-ended problems and drive them to a clear, shippable outcome.
- Communicate progress and blockers proactively without being prompted.
- Document what you do so the team can build on it later.
- Help colleagues across functions when the work spills over the org chart.
- Spot inefficiencies in how we work and fix them rather than just complain about them.
- Continually raise the bar on quality through what you ship and how you behave.
What you'll need
- 2+ years of relevant professional experience.
- Strong written and verbal English; you can run a meeting and write a clean update.
- A bias to action — you would rather get something out and iterate than wait for permission.
- High personal standards on quality and follow-through.
- Genuine interest in what we do and the customers we serve.
Perks & benefits
- Stock options or equity grants tied to company performance
- Free team lunches every Friday and quarterly company offsites
- Hybrid working — split your week between the office and home
- Annual learning budget you can spend on courses, books, or conferences
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision cover for you and your dependants
