Job Description
We are looking to hire remote principal engineers as individual contributors to design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and improve Humanitec. You should have significant professional experience in building highly scalable distributed systems. CS degree and experience in dev productivity tools are a plus. Languages: predominantly Go. Everything is on Kubernetes. We pay top 5% in the market, stocks are part of the package. Work is fully remote and we work exclusively with senior engineers in small, lean, and self-organized teams. We currently prefer time-zones UTC-1 to UTC+3.
The product:
We are pioneering a new category of tooling called âInternal Developer Platformsâ. Built for some time in companies such as Spotify, Github, Airbnb, and others, we are providing the fastest way for teams to build their own Internal Developer Platforms. Internal Developer Platforms provide a developer experience as simple as Heroku but on top of the tech and tools the team uses already. They allow ops teams to stay in control while enabling developers to self-serve the tech they need. Do you want to spin up an environment to do some quick testing? No problem! Need to clone Production to troubleshoot an issue without risking more problems? Easy! Need to stand up a new database for your service but ops is busy? Piece of cake! We serve customers from startups to unicorns.
The team:
The majority of our company are engineers. Our management team is made up of Ex-Google, Ex-Mckinsey, and serial entrepreneurs. We are backed and advised by experts such as Sohaib Abbasi (Oracle, Redhat, New Relic), Mirko Novakovic (Instana, IBM), Jason Warner (Github, Microsoft), and Chris Schagen (Contentful). We are well on track for our Series A at the beginning of 2022.
We're looking for people who could land a job at the likes of Google, Amazon, or Microsoft - but prefer the excitement, challenge, and daring of being part of a disruptive startup. We focus on your talents and personality - your background, origin, or gender will never make a difference to us.
Requirements:
Bachelor's degree in Engineering or Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.
6 years of software development experience.
Software development experience in C/C++, C#, Java, Python, Go, or similar.
Experience architecting and developing solutions to ambiguous problems with significant impact.
Experience with infrastructure technologies, architecting/developing distributed systems, API design, and Kubernetes.
Experience with how DevOps tools work under the hood (CI pipelines, Terraform, Application Performance Management (e.g. DataDog), etc.).
Remote & work from a timezone UTC-1 to UTC+3 (Berlin time +/- 2 hours).
Responsibilities of the role:
Design, develop, test, deploy, maintain, and improve the software.
Lead designs of major software components, systems, and features.
Build our platforms, systems, and infrastructure using your background in distributed systems, API design, and Kubernetes.
Mentor and train other team members on design techniques and coding standards.

Job Description
You will help design, create and improve our central automated trading platform, written mostly in Go. You will help to make our architecture even more secure, resilient and fault-tolerant while maintaining a modular, well-tested architecture with simple and elegant code, focussed on speed and latency. A good line of code for you is the one which wasnât written. You see infrastructure as code and see the deployment and monitoring as an integral part of your work, DevOps-style. You rather try to use a AWS cloud service instead of running your own piece of infrastructure or code. Security is always on your mind, and youâre maybe always a little bit too paranoid. You will also help research developers to port their Code to Golang and maintain code quality. You love to explore new state-of-the-art tools and discuss them with your team. Contributing to Open Source projects (e.g. modules to connect to exchanges) is an important part of your work as well. Youâre super detail and quality oriented and love to work in a team where most problems havenât been solved so far - so we highly value creativity to find solutions.
