📋 Description

• At Insight M, we combine innovative aerospace systems with advanced data science. • We sell information, not hardware - we operate our sensors cost-effectively at continental scale to produce novel data streams about pressing global problems. • We are focused on spotting hard-to-monitor emissions of methane, accelerating climate change. • Insight M has removed methane emissions equal to over 250 million tonnes of CO2e. • We've created a diverse, collaborative, supportive, and fun environment based on integrity and treating people right. • It's never boring, it's always challenging, and we’re usually laughing.

🎯 Requirements

• A detailed understanding of how modern SQL and NoSQL databases work and their tradeoffs, including query execution, storage, and communication. • A software development background, ideally in Python. • Knowledge of database security best practices. • Experience analyzing and optimizing database schemas, queries, and supporting platforms. • Experience with PostgreSQL PostGIS queries and schemas. • Experience working with SQL, ORMs, and other means of database access. • Experience operating scalable, reliable database management systems in the cloud. • Ability to offer other developers expert consultations on database issues as well as directly address database issues yourself. • The ability to learn quickly in a self-guided manner - much of what we do is solving new problems by integrating one or more pieces of new technology. • A desire to solve real-world problems over working on technical problems in isolation. • A belief in modern development practices - we do things like code reviews, unit testing, minimal-viable products, and fast development iteration.

🏖️ Benefits

• We provide health, dental, and vision insurance, including subsidized coverage for dependents, with HSA and FSA options. • We have a 401K, short-term and long-term disability, life insurance, an Employee Assistance Program, and more perks. • We do not track vacation time, nor do we have set hours to be in the office. • Instead, we encourage taking real vacations, mental health days, leaving early to pick up the kids, working from home, time-shifting commutes, staying home when you're sick, ducking out to the gym - we believe work time should be flexible. • We have transitioned to 100% remote work and plan to continue having remote positions in perpetuity.
