Responsibilities

The company is seeking an Engineer to help design and build out the infrastructure that powers a mobile, web and blockchain-based gamified social network. This infrastructure consists of a collection of serverless functions that manages the social network and the game, and communicates with blockchain data for transactions and stats. As an up-and-coming but still small startup, you will have input in making technology decisions.

Our ideal candidate combines strong engineering experience with someone who can work independently, and also coach and guide junior developers, as the company scales. We’re looking for critical thinkers with the ability to architect and implement solutions at scale, a hunger to learn new things and take on whatever challenge is thrown at them. The ideal candidate is comfortable wearing multiple hats (Back-end / Devops / Front-end) and not afraid of the unknown.

Details

  • Build and maintain a collection of Node serverless functions
  • Design systems that can scale to millions of users
  • Handle code deployments
  • Be responsible and jump on critical issues and bugs as they arise
  • Contribute to Front-End interfaces if and when required
  • Contribute to DevOps to ensure system remains stable

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related discipline preferred
  • 5+ years of experience as a backend developer (including some with Node.js)
  • Happy to work remote and manage your own office environment

  • Experience with databases such as MySQL, Postgres, DynamoDB, Redis
  • Experience with AWS DevOps, Terraform, RabbitMQ, Kuberenetes, Docker (or equivalents)

  • Knowledge and interest in Blockchains / Crypto industry (Web3 experience is a bonus)

Who You'll Be Working With
