Software Engineer Flock Safety Atlanta, GA, United States / Remote (United States) $100,000 to $140,000 a year
April 2021
28 Applicants This Week
More Than 6 Months Old
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.

Job Description
Why Rumble?
Rumble brings together the best of IT, security and networking technology to deliver amazing network discovery and asset inventory capabilities for modern enterprises.
An accurate network inventory is a fundamental building block of all security programs, yet most inventory products do a poor job of network-based discovery because they only see it as a stepping stone to the “real” product features. Legacy products work by sending sensitive credentials to every asset on the network and fail to handle today’s hybrid environments. Without a solid inventory, most companies struggle with attack surface reduction, network management, and incident response.
Rumble Network Discovery is a product of Rumble, Inc. We are a fully virtual, high-growth startup based in the United States. Our founders each have over 20 years of experience growing companies in the information security industry, including Rapid7, Veracode, BreakingPoint Systems, and PGP.
Rumble has already proven its market fit. Rumble appeals to companies of all shapes and sizes; we have customers that range from museums to Fortune 500 technology companies. We serve the low-end of the market through eCommerce and the mid-market and enterprise segment through inside sales.
The Opportunity
We’re building the engineering team to lead Rumble into the future. Our work is a mix of Go development, low-level protocol research, standard web technologies, PostgreSQL, and a mix of cloud technologies and integrations. Our platform is cloud-agnostic, can be self-hosted, and builds from a single repository. We ship daily and focus on incremental delivery with fast turnaround for customer requests and bug fixes. We bootstrapped to product market fit and recently raised a $5m venture capital round to accelerate our growth. The company was cash-flow positive in 2020.
We’re looking for senior engineers that are excited about research-driven product development and want to help build a company focused on happy customers and product-led growth.
Position Summary
We’re searching for senior engineers to grow our team! You will contribute to all stages of development, deployment, support, operations, and product planning. This position reports directly to the CEO today and will split into functional teams once the team expands. This is a growth opportunity for future engineering leadership as well as long-term individual contributors.
What Success Looks Like
Contribute your skills and knowledge to building, supporting, and operating an amazing product experience for our customers.
Learn as you go to understand customer needs, product structure, fingerprinting techniques, and network protocols.
Self-task and coordinate with the rest of the engineering team to move the product forward, solve customer challenges, and keep the platform running smoothly.
Work with customers to identify bugs, understand gaps in product functionality, and flag opportunities for improvement.
Work closely and communicate effectively with functional teams across the company to keep our customer experience aligned with product and sales operations.
To be successful in this role, you ideally have
A strong track record of building products that customers love.
5+ years of experience in programming-heavy engineering roles with a demonstrated ability to ship quality results, frequently.
Go programming experience is preferred, but if you have deep experience in other languages and are excited about learning Go, we can make that work too.
Extensive experience with web development (HTML, CSS, plain JS) and a solid understanding of the HTTP protocol and the web browser security model.
PostgreSQL database experience, but other SQL database experience is also applicable.
A solid understanding of standard development tools and processes, including Git and issue-management systems.
Confidence working with Linux instances for deployment and diagnostics.
We’re a fully remote company but you need to be located in the US, with US citizenship or permanent residency for healthcare, payroll, and legal reasons.
Rumble’s Benefits
We offer an extensive set of benefits including:
Competitive salaries and a stock option plan.
Top of the line medical, dental, vision, life and disability coverages with Rumble paying for 99% of the premium.
A flexible vacation policy.
401(k) match program.
Applying
To apply for this role, please send your resume and information about the products you have worked on to careers@rumble.run.
We encourage under-represented applicants to apply, even if you don’t think you fit 100% of the criteria (nobody ever does)!
