Level (https://level.io) is an exciting startup that will soon be entering the remote monitoring and management space. We're fans of the "Lean Startup" methodology and after many customer conversations, we're almost ready to launch our MVP. We feel like this space is stale with older products that offer a poor user experience. Our product features a simple interface and exciting technology that none of our competitors are utilizing.
We're backed by the founders of a very successful Managed Service Provider (MSP). They have extensive experience in the IT space and have proven invaluable in helping us validate that we are building the correct thing.
Salary
$110,000 - $115,000
Level Senior Engineer Role
Level is building a modern remote management and monitoring solution. We are a small team that is well funded and close to launching to our early access customers. 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 scare 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
Significant WebRTC experience. You have built something with Pion.
C/Objective-C experience, sometimes using system APIs means writing bindings to use in Go.
Video encoding experience. You have worked with H264 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 interface to query the active processes on an OS and transmit them over a WebRTC Data Channel to our web app.
Working with libav to create a custom h264 encoder to reduce the latency and bandwidth of streaming a device.
Creating a system tray GUI for the agent.
Securely allowing scripts to be executed against a machine and piping the results over a WebSocket connection.
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 are on the cusp of launching our MVP and starting to grow.
We will offer profit sharing so our small team will receive dividends on profits the company makes.
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 a new product. Our CEO and leadership team have done extensive product research and are focusing on traction channels to grow while the product is being built. Though we are a startup, our investors have given us a multi-year runway.
We have already made substantial progress towards an MVP. We need someone to come in and help finish our Go agent who is 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 hope to launch within the next couple of months and want someone to come on this journey with us.
We really like the Basecamp philosophy and try to make sure that it doesnât have to be crazy at work. We wonât ask that you work weekends, or late into the night. We donât mind if you need to leave for an appointment in the middle of the day. We understand that software development doesnât happen for 8 hours straight and donât 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.
Pay
We're looking for someone great, but are an early-stage startup. We are offering a rate of $110-$115k plus (eventually) profit sharing. We know you could make more elsewhere, but this is an opportunity to jump onto a startup that has the chance to grow quickly in revenue where our profit sharing will ensure you are compensated for the value you bring.

Requirements:
You have minimum of 2 yearsâ experience building complex applications with modern best practices (e.g. test-driven development, continuous delivery, code reviews.)
You have extensive experience with the building blocks of scalable cloud systems: Linux, Containers and service-oriented architecture
Deep knowledge of software engineering principles: object-oriented design, algorithmic complexity, software design patterns
You write clean code, even when working on extremely hard problems under deadline pressure. You test everything

You enjoy working with other engineers, collaborating on architecture and technology decisions
Passion for building high-performing systems
Experience working as part of a team on a rapidly growing application and codebase. Comfortable in a culture of fast iteration
Opportunity to work within an experienced and friendly team
Hack Days
Dedicated time to give back to the open source community
As a fast-growing company, there are opportunities for an ambitious and driven individual to progress their career and make a difference to the future success of the business
As a Software Engineer in the Gaming Transactions squad you will be responsible for building and running the transactions engine which underpins our customer facing products. This is a new and rapidly evolving service which is a key enabler for our platform strategy.
You'll be leading the way with the latest technologies including:
Go for our API backends
MySQL and Kafka for data storage and transport
Docker to containerise them
Jenkins to build them
Kubernetes to host them
Grafana and Prometheus to monitor them
Itâs quite OK if some of the above is new to you, so long as you have an appetite and energy for imparting what you know, and learning what you donât.
About youâŠ
Engineering means more than authoring quality, tested code. It includes the end-to-end delivery pipeline; code driven deployment infrastructure; automated test safety nets; and effective operational instrumentation and incident response.
Youâre a team player, who works collaboratively to achieve the shared squad goals. You are unafraid to challenge aspects outside your direct remit and passionately champion âthe right thingâ.
Youâll enjoy working in an architectural domain and youâre an advocate for sustainable software engineering; you strive for good technical design but donât gold plate or prematurely abstract for a re-use that never materialises.

Balance the commercial needs of the business against the ideal technical design, proposing sound phased or tactical implementations where appropriate.
Understand the importance of non-functionals such as real-time monitoring, good alert design and great logging strategies. Ensuring systems perform well to deliver the best user experience possible is something you consider as part of the normal delivery process.
Collaborate with other team members; learning from them, and in turn working with them to help them improve their own skills too.
Support the implementation of continuous integration to enhance deployment processes.
We are using virtual hiring and remote on-boarding to help our candidates and hiring managers stay safe. Face to face interactions will move over to video for this vacancy.

More Than 6 Months Old
This job posting is no longer available
Job Description
Are you a Golang developer thatâs passionate about developer tooling? ActiveState is looking for developers to level up their end-user tooling team. This team is mainly responsible for âthe State Toolâ, a new command line tool weâre developing that allows you to quickly jump-start runtime environments for your projects. Backed by ActiveStateâs new platform weâll be able to provide developer tooling unlike any youâve seen before.
If you know Python, Perl, or Tcl you've probably heard of ActiveState's language distros. Now weâre building an ambitious language distribution platform and set of tools so that coders can focus on coding and spend less time worrying about dependency hell, third party vulnerabilities, and inconsistent developer environments. Â Weâre doing this for every language and platform on the planet (and beyond). We need your help to do it! Best of all youâll be working on a product that youâll use yourself daily.
This position is based out of our headquarters in beautiful Vancouver, BC. Remote work will be considered, but only for candidates in North America.
WHAT YOUâLL BE DOING
Your job is to help us build the tools that take the pain out of developing code in teams. Our lofty goal is to replace the venerable README file with a single command. Youâll work on command line clients, editor tooling, and more. While a primary amount of your job will be described as back-end work you must be comfortable with a little front-end work as well.
When not working on code, youâll be meeting with your team to figure out priorities, features, technical issues, etc. Youâre someone with good technical knowledge who also has an interest in the end-product youâll be building.
Our day to day work practices are centered around GitHub, pull requests, code review, CI for testing, and agile development with Pivotal Tracker as our project management tool. Weâre always looking to improve our practices and we expect you to help us to do so.
Weâre a polyglot company and embrace using the best language for the given task at hand. Youâll regularly find Golang, Elm, Javascript, Python, Docker, Kubernetes, DCOS, CircleCI, and other modern tools. Quality is as important as speed. Weâre building for the long run, so youâll need to be proficient in writing tests and documentation too.
Our back ends and command line tools for interacting with our Platform are written in Go. While certain extended components of the platform that you might interact with from time to time are written in Elm and Python. Weâre also aiming to get a foothold in TypeScript for future editor plugin work.
The team is scattered around the US and Canada, so we coordinate with each other and the rest of the company using Slack for chat, Highfive for video calls and screen sharing, Pivotal Tracker, and the Google Suite.
We like to use open source software whenever possible, and we also like to contribute back to the open source ecosystem. We embrace open sourcing both libraries and tools developed in-house as long as those are not mission-critical code.
WHATâS IN IT FOR YOU
Working for a stable and growing company that offers the environment and personal growth potential of a start-up.
The chance to work with a smart, passionate team of people.
The chance to work on a project that will change the work lives of developers around the world, including your own!
Competitive salary, bonus, and stock option plan.
Comprehensive benefits package and health/wellness credit program.
REQUIREMENTSÂ
Experience with Go.
The ability to quickly pick up new languages and technologies.
Experience with relational database (mysql, postgres, ..).
Basic knowledge of JavaScript and front end development.
Experience with all 3 major platforms (Linux, macOS, Windows).
The ability to write clean, well-tested code with clear documentation.
Excellent written and spoken skills, both technical and non-technical..
A willingness to engage in the process of defining our work through conversations with product management, other engineering teams, and the rest of the company.
The ability to help others on the team become better at their jobs through mentoring, thoughtful code reviews, and generally being a team player.
ASSETS
If you have experience with any of the following please make sure to highlight it in your cover letter:
TypeScript experience.
Javascript tooling such as Webpack and frameworks such as React and Redux.
Elm experience, especially large Single Page Apps.
Microservices and message queues.
Good working knowledge of Docker.
