If you are excited about solving hard problems for our customers, working with a passionate and dedicated engineering team, and are focused on constant improvement as an engineer then please apply!

Your day to day:

  • Develop and improve large-scale systems, grow the scale of our platform, reduce complexity, increase automation and burn down technical debt;  

  • Build components of our platform via pair programming with other engineers;  

  • Implement practices to ensure the highest levels of operational resiliency;
