Job Title: Mobile InStore Engineer
Location: San Bruno, CA
Duration: 3+ Months Contract
Job Description:
You can work on Clojure at quite a few companies, but rarely can you impact millions of people at such a personal level. Client's mobile apps are highly rated and the services we write to support them are the base of that success.
We started from a small company acquisition with a single product. Today, we power a platform and a suite of products running on mobile devices and systems in retail stores.
Our team has a unique environment. We're still a small, flat team of engineers. We work with our own tools and make our own build-or-borrow decisions. Our culture is a healthy mix of sharing and pushing each other to be better at our craft. For example, we pair program when it best suits the task. We use pull requests & code reviews liberally. We make refactoring time. We deploy often, with a single line of code run from a REPL. Engineers on our team are challenged to work through our full software stack and be part of our product and project management. We believe that people are more engaged, fulfilled and happy when they feel responsible for actually shipping their work.
What we're all about
The environment at Client balances moving fast and breaking stuff, with the knowledge that we could break stuff for 140 million people every week. It's a tough balance but we've found the payoff to be worth the challenge and responsibility.
Some aspects of our work that are important to us:
High performance distributed systems
Robust & well-factored codebases
Simple & fast deployments
Automating operations thorough system test coverage
Managing our own development process and work backlog
Pair programming when it makes sense (locally and remotely)
Contributing back to the clojure & open source community
Having an engaging team culture and environment
What we do:
Write all our production systems & tools in Clojure
Create and orchestrate massive distributed systems
Spin up RESTful web services for consuming & ingesting large volumes of data
We are just a part of:
Client is the world's largest retailer and one of the world's top online retailers. The scale of challenges and potential impact is enormous.
