We are looking for a leading backend engineer with experience of building large systems.
About us:
- We love Linux, server clusters, big data, distributed everything,
task queues and network protocols.
- Our favorite gui is ssh/bash, preferably served grey on black.
- We never dragged or dropped anything.
- We are married to C and Python, but all of us see other
languages.
- We use Python, Flask, Fabric, C, MongoDB, MySQL, Redis
and Nginx.
- We have a hot key for everything.
- We don't serve ads. We have customers and revenue.
- We are 50/50 on vi/emacs and each of us is anxious to get to know
you better. :)
- We don't know what our code/test ratio is.
- We are very competitive and relish in building things more
effectively than others.
- We are not ninjas. We also are not rock stars, although we do
feel that coding is an art.
- We have a squadron of elite Silicon Valley investors behind us.
- We offer competitive salary, relocation and meaningful equity.
- We're based in SF or Bay Area. You can help us decide
exact location!
About you:
- You will have an enormous impact on our product.
And you love it.
- You are an intellectually curious US-based hacker.
- You know who an architecture astronaut is and that's not you.
- You have ideas about how to store and search large amounts
of data efficiently.
- You love UNIX as much as we do.
- You want to learn from us and you have something to teach.
- You're a Python person who also mastered at least one lower
level language: C, C++ or similar.
- You're not afraid of makefiles and you've managed your own
memory on multiple occasions (successfully).
- Off the top of your head, you know the approx. throughput of
the hard drive, network card and L2 cache.
- You feel an unreasonable amount of hatred for other companies
competing against you. :)
