Senior Backend Engineer

San Francisco, CA

On-site

Being a Senior Backend Engineer at a company smaller than 10 people is special. You’ll have a ton of autonomy, be expected to own and build a significant part of the product, and design the product’s growth for the next set of engineers who will be joining us. You’ll wear many hats: developer, designer, product owner, mentor, architect, support engineer, and sales engineer. Our engineers are strongly opinionated people who want to continuously improve the product they’re working on, the team they’re in, the company they’re working at, and the world around them.

Much of our product is still being discovered, but the need is very apparent through tens of conversations with heads of engineering, posts on Twitter and LinkedIn, and the fact that we have a good number of companies who want to sign up as design partners. There’s not much out there about us yet, but we are well funded by investors like Andreessen Horowitz and Boldstart Capital. I’ll share more once we meet.

Our system is a real-time stream processing application built on top of Apache Flink, running on Kubernetes in AWS. The user-facing application’s backend is a Java-based web application built on top of Dropwizard running on Kubernetes, that manages all the streaming pipelines on behalf of the user, translating their intents into complex streaming Flink pipelines, and delivering our awesome sauce. The role would be to own this backend, deliver clear and intuitive RESTful APIs and ensure their uptime and scalability. Experience with distributed systems, modern Java web applications and RESTful APIs for end users and front-end development are important.

The ideal candidate cares deeply about the user experience and wants to work closely with customers and front-end developers to deliver an excellent user experience. They have experience with building large scale data and analytical applications and have previously worked with and built applications using stream processors. It would be great if they’ve been at an early stage startup before and understand the type of environment it is and are comfortable with its rapidly evolving nature.

Engineering Culture

We strongly believe that engineering teams work best when everyone is an equally motivated, strong contributor to the team, and when egos are dropped and communication and feedback are open and constant. That’s why our motto is “team first”. We believe being physically together is the best way to build new systems that are rapidly evolving and to mentor and onboard new team members. That’s why we’re on-site at our office at 3043 Mission St, San Francisco, CA, at least 4 days a week.

Benefits
  • Competitive salary and significant equity as one of the first few people on the team.

  • Flexible PTO: we really want you to take some time off

  • 100% paid healthcare coverage for employees and 80% coverage for their dependents

Ultimately, a company is the people that form it, and we want to build a place where people will do the best work of their lives. You’ll have a huge impact in helping us figure out all the right pieces to make it an amazing place to work. I hope that makes it as exciting for you as it does for me.
