We are looking for a DevOps Engineer II who is familiar with cloud platforms, container technology and loves automation.

How we work

We are remote first

We value amazing work and a strong work-life balance. The majority of our collaboration happens on Slack and Zoom. We get together quarterly for team offsites so we can get some facetime (Covid Pending).

Salary Transparency

We believe that financial transparency creates trust, and that teams with a high level of trust are able to execute more effectively. We view salary transparency as a way to challenge a rampant problem in our industry: the wage gap. The base salary for any two employees in the same role is the same. Performance in that role is the differentiator, not upfront negotiation.

This is a salaried role. In addition, nextmv offers:

• Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
• Minimum Vacation Policy - (3 weeks minimum)
• Stock Option Plan
• 401k
• Home Office Stipend
• Parental Leave

About nextmv

nextmv helps companies automate and optimize even the most complicated operational decisions. The nextmv platform allows any developer to quickly build, test, and deploy models that automate routing, assignment, matching and scheduling.

Our Values

Our values are aspirational and affect everything we do. At nextmv, we hope to instill core attributes and practices into our daily lives. We will work toward these goals together, and help each other along the way.

Community
We act as a group of skilled contributors with diverse backgrounds and a common mission.
We listen to each other to actively instill empathy in ourselves.
We introspect about our actions and their impacts.

Candor
We share information, from company strategy to small insights and feedback.
We collaboratively review our decisions and code using the same process.
We own our mistakes and admit our vulnerabilities.

Focus
We are ambitious and value achievement over status.
We are innately driven to innovate and improve the world.
We apply our time and skills effectively to challenging problems.

Balance
We separate our work from our self-worth to view and improve it objectively.
We don't overwork, and take regular time away to encourage creativity.
We take care of ourselves so we can give our best to our team.

Also, we love animals.

Job Description

We are looking for a Senior Backend Developer to help build Bubbly, the Release Readiness platform helping software teams continuously release software with confidence and visibility.

Location:

Helsinki, Finland (remote possible +/-3 EET - relocating / local preferred) Salary and benefits package (including equity) tailored to your needs.

Do you want to take a leading role in developing a brand new technology? Are you ready to take on an exciting challenge at an early stage startup?

We are looking for a Senior Backend Developer to help build Bubbly. Bubbly is a Release Readiness platform currently in development. We are on a mission to help lean software teams continuously release software with confidence and visibility.

About Bubbly:

The initial idea for Bubbly was planted a few years back. DevOps consultants working at Verifa continually received requests from customers for a tool to give them visibility across all their data and pipelines. So we decided to build one! In Summer 2020 with help from Business Finland funding, we built up a team and recently established a new company, Valocode Oy, to focus on Bubbly’s development.

At its core, Bubbly is a very lightweight data platform with data pipelines developed in HCL (HashiCorp Configuration Language). Bubbly aggregates, queries and extracts data from multiple tools in the release process into a single dashboard, providing software teams with visibility and confidence in their release quality. Thus far we have built the core engine and UI, and are working towards releasing Bubbly as a SaaS product later this year. The team are big fans of open source, and Bubbly was recently released in open source public beta. Right now, we are self-funded with plans to secure pre-seed investment this year.

We are a small dedicated team consisting of both technical knowhow and business acumen, and we are currently looking for two more team members - Frontend Developer and Senior Backend Developer. So there is plenty of room to take a leading role in developing a brand new product. And as we are an early stage startup, there is the possibility to have ownership ín the company.

About the role:

You will have a crucial role in developing the Bubbly backend which is entirely written in Golang. We are using NATS and a service-oriented architecture (not quite microservice) where the services communicate via NATS message queues. Postgres is the primary database right now, but we have plans for immutable, append-only databases in the future for more compliance-related activities. As the team was founded from a DevOps company, Verifa, we enjoy our DevOps practices and would hope you will enjoy it also.

Must Haves:

• Solid knowledge and experience developing in GoLang
• Solid experience with NATS or other streaming/event-driven systems
• Practical experience with GraphQL
• Solid experience with PostgreSQL
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English
  

Nice to haves:

We would also appreciate experience or knowledge of the following technologies and practices: * Google Cloud * Kubernetes * Terraform * SvelteJS * Blockchain * Data science * HCL (HashiCorp Configuration Language) * CI/CD & DevOps (continuous practices)

This is a full-time position. We're located in Helsinki. Remote work is possible with a timezone requirement of +/-3 EET.

Interview Process

If this kind of role sounds interesting to you, please submit your CV and application as soon as possible. We are processing applications as we receive them. If your profile and experience look suitable, we’ll have a 30 minute discovery session. For more information or questions please contact [email protected]

At Techcyte, we believe the primary developers are the best suited to dissect production problems, and the DevOps team provides top-notch tools and methods to help them do that. As such, our DevOps members are still developers and will participate in product development, but they should be evangelists for thinking about code in the context of where and how it runs.

Candidates must meet the following requirements:

• Have a BS in Computer Science or a related degree, or related experience
• Be authorized to work in the United States

About the Company

Work from Home

Every team member has a daily standup meeting to touch base with their team and a monthly all hands meeting for the whole company to get updates. Additional meetings are created as needed, and the majority are impromptu.

Benefits

We offer competitive salaries, healthcare benefits, paid time off, work from home, a bonus plan, and equity.

Hard Problems

Techcyte develops products using computer vision and deep learning to automate microscopy for laboratory testing for healthcare, veterinary services, and environmental testing. We need to analyze the equivalent of a blu-ray movie worth of images in the cloud in only a few minutes while staying reliable and accurate. Major problems include transferring, processing, and storing terabytes of data, creating queuing systems that balance turnaround times with costs, and building a pipeline around machine learning models that meet the accuracy requirements of human healthcare.

Extremely Talented People

We have a wide range of talent spanning a variety of industries and positions. We have built a culture of fast paced and agile development in the face of a healthcare system that has been rigid. We are building massive scale systems to implement bleeding edge research. Come interview with us and you will see top notch engineering talent that can compete with any organization on the planet.

Improve the World

Our mission is to improve healthcare and laboratory testing throughout the world. We improve the work environment for our users, improve the accuracy of tests, and lower costs and turnaround times for the healthcare system. We push new innovation in technology, workflow, and regulations to make the healthcare system the best it can be. We have already improved accuracy in laboratory testing that have prevented misdiagnoses, and we are striving to do more.

Our values tell the story of Tyk – here’s how:

It’s ok to screw up! We’ve found that it’s often the ‘stupid’ or unexpected ideas that turn out to be the successful ones – so try it, at least we can say we have!

The only stupid idea, is the untested one! It’s in our DNA – starting a business with founders 12 hours apart, giving our gateway away for free – sure, we did that, and we’d do it again!

Trust starts with you – make it count! Trust is a two-way street – instill it from day one!

Assume best intent! We have each other’s back – we’re all on the same team. Think before you speak or act.

Make things, better! Always try to leave things better than when you found them – change is constant, inevitable and embraced! Be that change we want to see.
