Senior Software Engineer (Search)

POSITION SUMMARY:

We need another Senior Software Engineer (Search) who likes owning a feature from the design doc all the way to the on-call rotation. Nobody expects you to know every framework.

WHAT YOU NEED:

• 5+ years of professional software development experience
• BS in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
• Ability to write clear technical documentation and explain decisions to non-engineers
• Working knowledge of testing practices: unit, integration and contract tests
• Willing to join the on-call rotation once ramped up
• Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL, including writing efficient SQL

NICE TO HAVE:

• Contributions to open source projects
