About the job

About the company:

Our wireless division operates thousands of cell sites and supports roaming partners nationwide. We run a fiber backbone of over 20,000 route miles, plus data centres and network operations centres. Bucket truck and pole climbing training is done in-house.

This is a new role. The team has doubled in size over the past year. Our operations team is six engineers and we're adding one more. Most of the work is backend services, with some internal tooling. Nobody expects you to know every framework. We want someone who writes clear code, tests it and asks good questions. We are headquartered in New York City and have been hiring remotely since 2020. You will be employed through our employer-of-record partner in Australia, with a local contract and salary paid in local currency. Expect to work a schedule that overlaps with US Eastern business hours until about noon ET. We use Slack, Notion and Google Meet. Cameras on for team calls.

What you'll do:

Contribute to postmortems and follow through on the action items
Debug performance problems using profilers, logs and tracing in Datadog or Grafana
Keep dependencies current and patch findings from Dependabot or Snyk
Maintain REST and gRPC APIs used by internal teams and outside partners
Improve the reliability of existing code instead of just adding features on top of it
Work with product managers and designers to scope features and cut what isn't needed

What you'll need:

3+ years of professional software development experience
Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL, including writing efficient SQL
Strong skills in at least one of Python, Java, Go, C# or TypeScript
BS in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience

Perks and benefits:

Paid sick days
Co-working space stipend
Public holidays observed per your country
Company laptop
24 days paid time off
Health insurance through our employer-of-record partner

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are encouraged to apply.
