Software Engineer II

About the role

This is a new role. The team has doubled in size over the past year. Nobody expects you to know every framework. We want someone who writes clear code, tests it and asks good questions. We need another Software Engineer II who likes owning a feature from the design doc all the way to the on-call rotation. Remote position. Most of the team is in Phoenix, but nobody is required to come in. Most of our work is async, and meetings are kept short.

• Take part in an on-call rotation (roughly one week in six) and help resolve production incidents.
• Review pull requests from teammates and give clear, specific feedback.

• Migrate older modules out of the monolith where it makes sense.
• Debug performance problems using profilers, logs and tracing in Datadog or Grafana.

Who you are

• 3+ years of professional software development experience.
• BS in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Willing to join the on-call rotation once ramped up.
• Some exposure to AWS, GCP or Azure.
• Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL, including writing efficient SQL.
