Software Engineer II

Product, engineering and support teams work out of offices in Los Angeles, California and two nearshore delivery centers. Public sector agencies, utilities and large health systems license our asset management platform under multi-year contracts. Laptops are MacBook Pros, and you pick your own editor.

The position

Looking for a Software Engineer II who wants to stay somewhere for a while. Nobody expects you to know every framework. We want someone who writes clear code, tests it and asks good questions. Remote, open to candidates across the US. Most of our work is async, and meetings are kept short.

Job duties

• Debug performance problems using profilers, logs and tracing in Datadog or Grafana

• Write unit and integration tests and keep the CI pipeline green

• 3+ years of professional software development experience
