WHAT YOU’LL WORK ON
Teamwork, open, and honest communication matter. Teammates spend much of their time mentoring, guiding, and supporting each other to promote the best understanding of our desired outcomes. Our code is often written in NodeJS and Python and served through Amazon Web Services. We create solutions using our own code, 3rd party software, AI models, and consumer web-services. We operate the systems we develop and have a rotating on-call schedule for off-site, local business-hours, contact. The team as a whole handles incidents - which are uncommon. Successfully operate within our engineering environment and help it evolve over time.
- Provide mentoring for more junior engineers to help them grow their skills and careers.
- Review peers’ technical designs, code, and tests, giving supportive feedback and asking good questions.
- Work in a collaborative environment that rewards experiments, initiative, curiosity, and mentoring.
- Leverage your knowledge to design full-stack applications for quality, security, reliability, availability, maintainability, and
- performance.
- Practice DevOps ensuring a culture of testing and releasing software continuously using automation and monitoring.
- Partner with other engineering and product teams to loosely couple and scale the ecosystem.
We offer a number of accommodations to complete our interview process including screen readers, sign language interpreters, accessible and single location for in-person interviews, closed captioning, and other reasonable modifications as needed.
