Job Description

We're building a unified developer experience to help software teams move faster and stay focused on achieving their goals. Over the past decades, software development has grown in importance inside organizations and with it there has been a Cambrian explosion of tooling. While each tool is great at what it does, they live in their own silos and weren’t built to work together. These silos lead to disconnected workflows, context switching, and difficulty finding information. Our vision is to build a better way to get work done. Summon brings together your tools and data into one blazingly fast, native experience. We’re just getting started and our ambition is bold: build the best platform for software teams to get their work done. We love what we do and are motivated by working on a product we love using ourselves. You would have an immediate impact as a builder to influence engineering and the direction of the product. You join as a founding engineer and have full ownership working closely with our founders and a team of super talented developers.

Who we’re looking for

We are looking for a full-time backend engineer. Our ideal candidate has 5+ years of experience building event driven microservices or service oriented architectures and has built most facets, if not all, in a "twelve-factor" app. Preference is for real experience (2+ years) in our primary language of Golang, but other languages are considered when able to quickly pick up new technologies. Additional experience in integrating with 3rd party systems, event-driven architecture, databases, and cloud services (AWS, GCP, etc) are important.

You will directly influence how and what to build, and must be comfortable collaborating on the architecture, code, product, etc as we have a strong culture of devops as well as being technically curious, thoughtful and purposeful in what we build. We value deploying frequently with well-written, maintainable, instrumented and tested code to a kubernetes cluster.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop new products and features in a small team
  • Collaboration with the team to solve technical problems and help shape the product direction
  • Provide technical input and knowledge to the planning, design, and requirements process for new products and features
  • Review other software engineers' code for correctness, style, and completeness
  • Support your team's production software by responding to an occasional alert or bug report
  • Write integration tests and work with our product team to ensure the operation and correctness of new features

Requirements:

  • 5+ years of backend engineering in a distributed systems
  • 2+ years in Golang or 5+ using several languages you were able to quickly pick up
  • Strong knowledge of a variety of database systems (Graph, relational etc.)
  • Experience working with 3rd party APIs and OAuth
  • Comfortable with strong dev ops culture
  • Strong communication skills in English and experience working as part of a remote team
  • Need to be located in timezones UTC-4 through UTC-8 (The Americas)
  • Excited to travel internationally for company retreats (twice a year)
  • Favorite Ted Lasso quote

Why join us?

We love what we do: designing and building great products. But our work isn't the only thing that defines us. We're not trying to create some semi-cult to get people to work here. We simply enjoy working together and building useful and beautiful software for our customers. We’re a venture-backed startup and are looking for someone who is excited about the early stages of building a product and having a tangible impact on the company’s success. You would join a group of repeat founders. We have founded startups backed by top Silicon Valley VCs. While getting huge amounts of venture capital has its advantages, it also puts a company on a very narrow success path. We want to do it a little differently this time. Where raising money and growth is balanced with the goal of being default-alive and capital-efficient. Which gives us optionality and lets us build the company we want to build over the long run.

At Horizon, we’re building a New Dimension where Internet economies are fun, accessible, and for the benefit of all participants.

Job Description

Our mission is to help software teams get more done. Over the past decade there has been an explosion of specialized tooling in the enterprise. It’s putting the burden on each of us to jump between different apps and tabs to get our work done and at the end of the day we’re wasting valuable time. We believe there is a better way. Our ambition is bold: build the best platform for software teams to get their work done.

We’re just getting started and are looking to grow the team to help us accomplish our mission. We love what we do and are motivated by working on a product that we enjoy using ourselves. You would have an immediate impact as a builder and user influencing product. You would join the early team as a founding engineer and have full ownership working closely with our founders.

Who Are We? We love what we do: designing and building great products. But our work isn't the only thing that defines us. We're not trying to create some semi-cult to get people to work here. We simply enjoy working together and building useful and beautiful software for our customers. We’re a venture-backed, pre-launch startup and are looking for someone who is excited about this stage of building a product and having a real impact on the company’s success.

You would join a group of repeat founders. We have founded and worked at startups that raised a bunch of money from top VCs. While that has its advantages (hire lots of amazing people, spend money on ads and cool perks…) it also puts a company on a very narrow success path. It's very binary, since venture investors have a binary return profile (they succeed if their investments sell for billions). So we decided to do it a little differently this time. Where growth isn't the only goal of a company. Where it's balanced with the goal of being default-alive and capital-efficient which leaves doors open and avoids the trap of forced binary outcomes.

Engineers at Frame.io are creative, technical people making beautiful and powerful tools to help other creative, technical people to do their best work. We have to be—Frame.io is the thread that runs through the entire video post-production process.

We're looking for a media focused systems engineer to join our growing engineering team. You'll work in an autonomous group that builds cloud-based services to power our entire media processing and delivery pipeline: the service at the very core of the Frame.io product.

Software Engineer - Backend

About GRAX

At GRAX, it’s all about data. We help our customers secure and drive value across their ever expanding enterprise SaaS data footprint. Initially, we're focused on Salesforce, the wildly popular CRM platform used by the world's most successful companies. We capture and retain every data change over time, so it can be stored, processed and analyzed using the full power of AWS, Azure and GCP.

GRAX is a well-funded Series A startup. We’re one of the fastest growing partners in the Salesforce ecosystem with revenues more than doubling year-over-year.

Who we are

GRAX was founded by serial entrepreneurs with a long history of success in the Salesforce ecosystem. The product and engineering organization is led by veterans in cloud platform development, including some of the key architects behind Heroku.

About the role

The Backend team builds and maintains the core distributed data pipeline that slurps data from SaaS APIs, secures it for safekeeping before transforming and routing it to its final destination. As an engineer on this team you can expect to:

  • Program mostly in Go (golang.org) within a group of experienced developers committed to learning, sharing and continual improvement.
  • Work closely with internal teams from PM through Customer Success - and occasionally directly with customers.
  • Own the full lifecycle of specific features and product areas from design to release

You may be a good fit if…

  • You have experience with large scale data processing
  • You have built or operated a large cloud service
  • You have prior experience working with distributed systems with a focus on reliability and resiliency.
  • You have extensive experience building on AWS, GCP and/or Azure.

What it’s like to work here

Founded in Boston, GRAX is a remote-first, distributed team. We value collaboration, communication and accountability. You’ll be offered a competitive salary, equity, full health benefits incl. dependents and unlimited PTO.

GRAX embraces diversity and equal opportunity. We are committed to building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills. We believe the more inclusive we are, the better our company will be.
