Description

• As an experienced back end software engineer on the Content Lake Developer Experience team, you’ll be responsible for building highly scalable, performant distributed systems providing our core content creation and querying capabilities. • You’ll be solving challenging scalability problems such as how to serve millions of requests a minute whilst keeping our content up to date and fresh.

Not only using databases to solve problems but also knowing how they are implemented. • A proven track record of building and running distributed applications at scale. • An expert in any back-end language; however, you’ll be required to write in Go and some TypeScript / Node.js. • A compassionate, friendly human being who cares about and shows respect to the people you work with, as well as having empathy for our users. • Able to clearly and concisely communicate technical designs and thinking both verbally and in writing. • Experience working at a product/SaaS company.
