Job Description

You enjoy writing code, but in the back of your mind you’re always wondering: what problem does this solve? Who will be using this software and how will this make their work easier? You are fascinated by how your software is used and how it can be improved. You like to dive into the end users’ workflows to make them as seamless as possible. Because it’s not just about the code, it’s about the results.

You’ve found that having a robust, automated test suite frees the team to take on refactoring efforts with confidence, knowing that the system you’ve built won’t let you deploy broken software even if you try. You believe that collaborating with others makes it so that everyone learns, you build a better product, and you can sleep at night and go on vacation with the assurance that what you’ve constructed is stable.

Through the technology this team develops and runs, we're making onboarding of security tech unexpectedly simple for customers. We're also empowering our customer success team to onboard and maintain the fleet of our customers’ security devices, while being fully transparent with our customers with what we’re doing.

If this sounds like you, then we believe you'll love our team, and we’d love to talk to you!

What Expel Can Do For You

• Give you complicated, real world problems on which to use your skills and experience
• Develop your expertise in current technologies like Kubernetes, Kafka, Postgres, EmberJS and Go
• Increase your exposure to the information security space and security products
• Experience a growing, highly open startup environment

What You Can Do For Expel

• Expand the core security device onboarding infrastructure our customers and analysts rely on 24 x 7
• Make sure our customer support staff have the tools that they need to fix problems with the array of customer security devices when they come up
• Enthusiastically reinforce our belief in good software engineering practice including code reviews and automated testing
• Add your viewpoint to our engineering culture (and especially this small team)
• Adapt to changes of direction because, hey, startup life!

What You Should Bring With You

• A desire and ability to constantly learn and improve yourself and your work products
• The ability to communicate and work effectively with others
• A track record of building maintainable systems in Linux environments
• Proficiency with at least one JavaScript framework (we use EmberJS but experience with another framework is valid)
• Proficiency with Go 
• Ideally: familiarity with cloud environments
• 3+ years of full-stack development experience

How We Run This Team

• We build and run teams where everyone is pulling in the same direction and is learning from each other:
• We work out of a shared backlog
• We peer-review everything
• We pair-program when it makes sense
• We do weekly blame-free retros to reinforce what’s going well, so we do more of it, and surface what’s not, so we can do something about it.

Additional Notes

At Expel, our employee benefits reflect our commitment to our crew. Unlimited PTO, equity for everyone, work location flexibility, up to 24 weeks of parental leave, and excellent health benefits are some of the ways we care for our Expletives.

Our headquarters is in Herndon, Virginia, however our team is fully remote, and we have full support for remote interaction. We realize that while there is benefit to in-person interaction, good people don’t all live in Northern Virginia.

We're only hiring those authorized to work in the United States.

We're an Equal Opportunity Employer: You will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, sex, color, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, protected veteran status, or on the basis of disability.

You will empower GrowSumo's mission of building the sales force of the future, building trust with our clients, partners, and colleagues as a team leader and mentor to junior developers.

What we do:

The GrowSumo Core team builds the foundational product that connects some of the fastest growing companies in the world to a global marketplace of distributors.

• We deploy our code multiple times per day.

Who we are looking for:

• You have a strong learning reflex and you see challenges as a chance to grow.

• You want to see customers getting value out of the software you wrote to solve their problems.

• You are happy to help other developers learn from you, and you hope they challenge you to learn new things as well.

• You're proud of the code you write, but you're also pragmatic about design vs iteration: you know when it is time to refactor, and when it's time to ship.

• You're focused, driven and can get challenging projects across the finish line but you know that sometimes it's okay for deep work to take its time.

• You have experience operating services in production and take software quality practices personally.

• You write meaningful tests and understand the value of observability and operability and what they mean in different contexts.

Requirements

• You have 2+ years building web applications on a team
• An ability to quickly learn new languages, or an existing familiarity with Python, Vue.js, Angular1.x, Golang, or similar languages.
• Write readable, robust and reusable code
• Work well on a growing team, communicating clearly and often.
• You have an interest in constantly learning how the team can build better, more scalable, and more sustainable solutions.

We want to get to know you, so please share any of your side projects, open source contributions, community involvement or volunteer experience. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

Job Description

Level is building a modern remote monitoring and management solution. We are a small, well-funded, team that recently launched our product. We are searching for a strong, multi-talented individual contributor who is comfortable with systems-level programming and networking who can contribute to our agent, written in Go.

Must-Haves

• Deep knowledge of a systems language like C, Rust, or Go.
• Not afraid to dig into an RFC. Low-level internals excites you, rather than scares you away.
• Experience with system-level APIs in Windows (win32), macOS, and/or Linux.
• Excellent written communicator.
• Willing to learn and work with Go.

Nice-to-Haves

• You are comfortable using GCC, and find yourself at home going through a C codebase.
• Familiarity with RPC and common methods of IPC such as sockets and named pipes.
• Video encoding experience. You have worked with VP8 and understand the spec.
• Building cross-platform libraries, our Go agent compiles to Windows, Darwin, and Linux on a variety of architectures.

Things you might work on

• Building a cross-platform patch management system to give users control over OS updates.
• Working with VP8 to reduce the latency and bandwidth when streaming a device.
• Creating a system tray GUI for the agent.
• Expanding desktop streaming to work on Mac and Linux.
• Adding a proxy to the agent to enable remote access to routers and switches.
• Implementing Trickle ICE to improve WebRTC connection times.

Why you might want to work with us

• We are a small, fully remote engineering team, and there are no layers of bureaucracy. You can have a huge impact here.
• We are very flexible with working hours, we don't expect you to work a consistent block of time, we trust you to get your work done.
• We've recently launched and are starting to grow.
• We will offer profit sharing so our small team will receive dividends on profits the company makes.

Why you might not want to work with us

• We are an early-stage startup, and while we are well funded, we are careful with our runway and haven't splurged on extra perks like gym memberships or 401k matching. You want to work with a large team. We do not intend to hire more until it is painful enough to warrant doing so.

More About Us

We are a startup headquartered in beautiful downtown Asheville, NC. We are a small, close-knit team working to upend the RMM market with our new product. We have recently launched and have acquired our first customers. Though we are a startup, our investors have given us a multi-year runway.

Currently, our agent team is made up of a single amazing developer. This hire will join them to expand the agent team. This developer should be an experienced self-starter that can make an impact on our product development. We aren't interested in someone that just wants to work down a list of pre-defined tasks. Our ideal candidate loves working on products and will help shape the direction of ours. We're going to be improving this product for years and want someone to come on this journey with us.

We really like the Basecamp philosophy and try to make sure that it doesn’t have to be crazy at work. We won’t ask that you work weekends, or late into the night. We don’t mind if you need to leave for an appointment in the middle of the day. We understand that software development doesn’t happen for 8 hours straight and don’t worry about counting time in the chair. We trust that given a fair timeline with a scope that you help us determine you will be able to deliver features. We are concerned with the end goal, not micromanaging you on the way there.

About the Application Process

Collaboration and communication are a critical aspect of how we work, a cover letter is a great way to provide a sample of how you communicate.

In your cover letter, please describe why you’re interested in working at Level, and what draws you to this role in particular. Specifics of your past experience that are relevant to this role are great to include, too.

Pay

We're looking for someone great but we're an early-stage startup. We are offering a rate of 120k plus profit sharing (once we have profits 😅). We hope to grow quickly and are committed to increasing the base pay of everyone on the team at each stage of growth.

We’ve also made ourproduct roadmap public and give sneak peeks of features in our community forum. Our blog is a good place to learn even more about what we do!

Monzo works in project-based sprints in small, interdisciplinary teams

We’re still a relatively small company, with around 60 engineers out of roughly 300 people in total - and we have big ambitions. There are many interesting challenges ahead, and we're happy for people to move between teams or to specialise, whatever you prefer. As an engineer here you'd be able to work directly with anyone across the company, and we run regular knowledge-sharing sessions so you’ll learn heaps about everything from how banks work to effective communication.

At Monzo you will get to work with a lot of exciting new technology.

We rely heavily on the following tools and technologies:

• Go to write our application code (there’s an excellent interactive Go tutorial here)

• Cassandra for most persistent data storage

• Kafka for our asynchronous message queue

• Linkerd/Finagle for RPC

• Kubernetes and Docker to schedule and run our services (Oliver,our Head of Engineering, gave a great talk at KubeCon on how we use these technologies)

• AWS for most of our infrastructure

• React for internal web dashboards

• We also have two physical datacenter sites with actual cables to connect to various third parties

You should apply if:

• the work we’re doing sounds exciting!

• you want to be involved in building a product that you (andeveryone you know) use every day

• you’re keen to learn more about new technologies and the arcane inner workings of the financial industry

• you’re comfortable working in a team that deals with ambiguity

• you’re interested in distributed systems and writing resilient software

• you have some experience with strongly-typed languages (Go,Java, C, Scala etc.).
