Job Description

About the Role

At Techcyte, we are building machine learning algorithms for microscopy testing using the latest in deep learning. To support these applications, we use AWS in a dynamically scaling environment while maintaining the availability and quality requirements of medical grade software.

We use the following technologies (and more!):

• AWS (S3, EC2, ECS, CloudFront, DynamoDB)
• Terraform, Vault, Packer
• Gitlab CI
• Tempo (OpenTracing)
• Go, ReactJS, Python
• Docker, Ansible
• Prometheus, Grafana

The goal of our DevOps team is to create a self-service system for everyone to get their job done. This means designing intuitive and well-documented infrastructure as code that allows others to get their jobs done efficiently, securely, and correctly instead of doing it all for them. 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
• 4+ years experience building on AWS or other cloud infrastructure
• Excellent coding skills (main languages in the company are Go, ReactJS, and Python)
• Ability to work on remote Linux systems
• Current with modern dev tools and methodologies such as agile development, git, bug trackers, and team chats.
• Be able to work remotely
• Ability to optimize queuing and complex systems to improve speed or costs
• Knowledge around best security practices
• Experience with SQL databases

Candidates will be asked to code in the interview process.

About the Company

Work from Home

While we do have offices available for use, our workforce spends the majority of their time working from the comfort of their 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.

Job Description

Help us eliminate non-violent crime, one community at a time

Want to help build a company that’s improving our cities, solving crime, and protecting the privacy of individual citizens? Do you want to create the technology to make this possible?

Flock Safety exists to eliminate crime from our communities. We believe that safety starts, not when you enter your home or even your property, but when you enter your community. We are stronger when we all work together, and that's why Flock Safety developed technology specifically designed to help private citizens and local law enforcement work together to stop crime.

Flock is currently at an inflection point where people who join now will have a career defining opportunity. We are growing and well funded by top tier VCs: Initialized Capital, YCombinator, Matrix Partners, Bedrock Capital, and Founders Fund.

About the opportunity

This role falls in our Delivery Experience team, a newly formed small team for making our hardware as a service model a delightful customer experience. We build the software to ensure customers have cameras installed in optimal locations and any maintenance is a positive touchpoint.

Some challenges you’ll tackle

• Own features across the entire stack: backend, frontend, data stores – the whole shebang (#!)
• Build internal workflows to manage our fleet of cameras at scale - We process over 20M images daily in real time
• Collaborate with Machine Learning and Hardware teams on multifaceted projects
• Work directly with Product to understand user needs and scope solutions
• Assess new technologies as needed for a task and make decisions balancing technical need and business impact

About You

• Love writing code and have extensive experience doing so.
• Motivated by taking an unknown problem, sinking your teeth in, and coming up with a plan of attack.
• Desire to grow your role and have a direct influence on the growth of a young company.
• Interested in all aspects of the business, from direction to office space.
• Excited about working on a fast-paced, constantly evolving product.
• Able to crack a joke every now and then, even if you're the only one who laughs.

Our Tech

If you noticed, the above list says very little about specific coding skills. We believe the right person for this role is much more than a great engineer. But to get into the nitty gritty, currently our stack looks like:

• Typescript (Node) web services with a bit of Scala and Go (Golang) in there as well as needed
• React on the frontend, but also some mix of plain ole HTML, CSS (bootstrap), and Javascript (jQuery + KnockoutJS) as needed
• Swift(iOS) or Kotlin(Android) for mobile apps
• Postgres DB, but occasionally Redis or DynamoDB (use the right tool for the job)
• Kubernetes, Docker
• AWS (SQS, S3, etc)

Why join the Flock?

When you join the Flock, you are joining a diverse team of passionate, ambitious, intelligent people that put team over self. We offer competitive salary, benefits, and the opportunity to grow your career at a fast-paced, high growth start up. We genuinely care about the well-being of our employees both in and out of the office and understand the importance of work/life balance. We’d love for you to join us in the fight to eliminate crime, one neighborhood at a time.

• Effective at asynchronous remote work, with teammates across the world

Outside of code, employees are encouraged to share causes close to their heart with others so we can help lend a supportive hand.

• We care about you. Fastly works hard to create a positive environment for our employees, and we think your life outside of work is important too.
