We’re looking for truly exceptional Senior engineers who are ready to tackle an endless, important feature list, and do it at an intimidating scale. Someone, who’s proficient in both infrastructure and public API development.

Imagine Lollapalooza or a hot Yankees game in the middle of summer if you couldn’t buy a beer...unacceptable. The stuff you’ll work on has a very real impact, and our customers will love you or hate you for what you deliver. What you build matters here.

You should be able to operate without much direction, but be excited to work closely with a team. We want developers who are opinionated about smart ways to build, yet humble enough to listen and take input well. You should want to take ownership of the features you build...you’re shipping to customers, not just completing story points. We’re looking for developers who care deeply about the quality of their code...it impacts your fellow devs, your company, and your customers. QA can and will help, but ultimately, you embrace the fact that the quality of what you ship is your responsibility.

We have an incredible team, with a brilliant culture. Your friends will be jealous when you tell them about your day at work. What are you waiting for? Send us your resume!

Responsibilities:

• Build and ship clean, performant, scalable, secure, quality software that exceeds customer expectations...own your code, cradle to grave.
• Provide technical expertise and leadership in the design, development, and delivery of Appetize products, while adhering to timelines, coding standards, requirements, and quality.
• Work with Product, Quality, DevOps and Ops to ensure that we deliver the best possible customer experience.
• Implement, refine, and enforce software development techniques to ensure that delivered features meet software integration, performance, security, and maintainability expectations.
• Be available as necessary to troubleshoot urgent issues.
• Collaborate closely with local, nearshore and offshore engineering and ops...we’re all one team.
• Adhere to Product and workflow processes, engaging with the team to make continual improvements.
• Be a technical thought-leader among your peers to constantly improve how we work.
• Be approachable and transparent, wear a lot of hats, and always be aware of the big picture of making Appetize great!
