At Horizon, we’re building a New Dimension where Internet economies are fun, accessible, and for the benefit of all participants.
We have two amazing products to make this real:
Sequence, which consists of i) the first user-friendly smart wallet for crypto, NFTs, Web3 + the metaverse, and ii) a developer platform to make building Web3 applications easy on Ethereum and other EVM chains.
And Skyweaver, a digital trading card game—powered by Sequence—where players can win, own, trade and sell their NFT game items.
Sequence is poised to drive Web3 adoption on a massive scale by making blockchain easy, fun and powerful for users and developers. And, Skyweaver is a groundbreaking video game with an unprecedented player-owned economy, novel gameplay, and an already fervent community.
While the challenge is hard, we find it incredibly fun. And, we have the ingredients to make it happen: a well-capitalized company with some of the best investors in the world (Reddit co-founder, Coinbase, Initialized, and more), an amazing team of leaders in the blockchain space, engineers who have built widely popular open source, a former top McKinsey strategy consultant, gaming industry veterans, and founders who have built and sold successful companies.

Responsibilities:
-Architect, develop, and implement the infrastructure, and infrastructure stack of Skyweaver and Sequence
-Design and implement services that are scalable, and fault-tolerant
-Build services that interface with the Ethereum blockchain
-Contribute to open source works in the Sequence stack
-Extend and evolve our toolchain, to run our stack effectively
-Design architectural foundations that are robust and sound, so that future engineers can build on your work with ease and speed
Requirements:
-5+ years shipping production-grade code in Go
-Experience and knowledge of the Ethereum blockchain, its tooling and ecosystem
-Knowledge of distributed systems design
-Experience with data systems, both in their design and practical use
-Experience with one of the major cloud providers, AWS, GCP, Azure, etc.

Job Description
About you:
You understand how computers work and what role an operating system plays. You know why the Linux kernel is written in C and not any other language. You have a favorite file system, you know what a syscall is and you are comfortable exploring /proc and /sys. You like using Go every day, are not afraid of Makefiles and you enjoy when thousands of servers bend to your will.

Designing and building new open source products that you can be proud of like Teleport.
Talking to customers and converting complex requirements into simple and elegant solutions.
About Gravitational:

We are hackers. We love Linux and low level systems programming and we love helping open source communities and other engineers to get things done.
We are also dedicated to our friends, families, and hobbies outside of work. Our past experiences building companies taught us about the importance of life and work balance. It matters even more when you are building a lasting company, like Gravitational.

Job Description
As a developer at GrowSumo on the Core Product team, you will work alongside other skilled developers, product leads, front-end developers, and success engineers to craft high-performance and highly operable web services that scale to support our rapidly growing user base.
You will empower GrowSumo's mission of building the sales force of the future, building trust with our clients, partners, and colleagues as a team leader and mentor to junior developers.
What we do:
The GrowSumo Core team builds the foundational product that connects some of the fastest growing companies in the world to a global marketplace of distributors. Our clients send us over 25 million transaction and integration requests every year so that we can properly attribute and reward their partners for driving key business metrics.
We believe that teammates have each others backs - we build for operability and stand behind the services we write.
We build backend services and applications mostly in Python and golang, running in Docker containers.
Supporting each others success is one of our highest priorities.
We believe in equipping our team with the best tools for the job.
We use our creativity and imagination to handle high data volumes and velocity.
We deploy our code multiple times per day.
We are passionate about growth of the team, as well as the individual.
Were proud of the code we write, but were not dogmatic about methodologies or techniques. We believe building the "right thing" is more important than building things "right", as long as we build it better each time we touch it.
Who we are looking for:
You have a strong learning reflex and you see challenges as a chance to grow.
You want to see customers getting value out of the software you wrote to solve their problems.
You are happy to help other developers learn from you, and you hope they challenge you to learn new things as well.
You're proud of the code you write, but you're also pragmatic about design vs iteration: you know when it is time to refactor, and when it's time to ship.
You're focused, driven and can get challenging projects across the finish line but you know that sometimes it's okay for deep work to take its time.
You have experience operating services in production and take software quality practices personally.
You write meaningful tests and understand the value of observability and operability and what they mean in different contexts.
Requirements
You have 2+ years building web applications on a team
An ability to quickly learn new languages, or an existing familiarity with Python, Vue.js, Angular1.x, Golang, or similar languages.
Write readable, robust and reusable code
Work well on a growing team, communicating clearly and often.
You have an interest in constantly learning how the team can build better, more scalable, and more sustainable solutions.
We want to get to know you, so please share any of your side projects, open source contributions, community involvement or volunteer experience. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
