Software Engineer

About us:

Ketteridge Labs builds scheduling and dispatch software for field service companies, from two-truck plumbing outfits to regional HVAC contractors. We keep recurring meetings to Tuesdays and Thursdays where we can.

What this job is:

This role opened up because a team member is relocating. Our Billing team is six engineers and we're adding one more. Most of the work is backend services, with some internal tooling. Hybrid. You will need to be in Philadelphia at least two days per week.

Day to day:

• Design, build and maintain services in Python, Go or Java that handle real customer traffic
• Debug performance problems using profilers, logs and tracing in Datadog or Grafana
• Migrate older modules out of the monolith where it makes sense
• Break down product requirements into technical tasks and rough estimates
• Draft short design docs for larger changes and walk the team through the tradeoffs
• Contribute to postmortems and follow through on the action items
• Keep dependencies current and patch findings from Dependabot or Snyk

What we're looking for:

• 2+ years of professional software development experience
• Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL or MySQL, including writing efficient SQL
• Willing to join the on-call rotation once ramped up
• BS in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
• Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms and basic system design
• Working knowledge of testing practices: unit, integration and contract tests

Also helpful:

• Infrastructure as code with Terraform

Pay and benefits:

Expected salary range: $139,000 to $187,000 annually, plus bonus eligibility.

• Medical, dental and vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid sick leave

Start: Immediately.
