Job Description

Backend Software Engineer - Remote in US or In Office (UT, PA, CA)  

**Senior, Staff, and Sr. Staff levels **

Nav is democratizing small business financing. In other words, we give small business owners access and control.  Yes, this challenges the norm, but it means working with curious, purpose driven, dedicated, and inquisitively smart people who push themselves, our company and the community to the next level (and every level after that). We are the people behind the tech. And when it’s good, we look for better. We don’t over think the value we bring nor spend time trying to revamp mantras. We also do not come up with some crafty way to tell you who we are and what we offer. We are Nav!  Here, you’ll gain a wealth of experience, learn the tricks of the trade, and work with winners. All companies say people are connected to their mission but in our case our mission and our people are one – it is a way of being not just a cause you are committed to.  And since 2013, Nav has holistically and organically developed its own ideology because Nav can only be Nav.

WHAT WE EMPOWER YOU WITH:

• Build and scale services that integrate with banking data vendors, Salesforce, and other internal services. Our focus is in Go, but we support other services in languages such as Ruby, Elixir, and Python.
• Optimize Nav’s customer experience, from first contact, through sign-up, and applying for loans and credit cards.
• Build the framework that Nav’s solutions (credit reports, alerts, financing marketplace) plug into.
• Turn business requirements into technical solutions.
• Help establish best practices within Nav's growing Engineering organization.

WHAT YOU BRING TO THE TABLE:

• A track record of successfully delivering maintainable backend systems in a Linux environment.

• You have a bias for action, a “driver” that gets stuff done, using analytical thinking.
• You are comfortable with ambiguity, ability to change course quickly based on new insights.

INCLUSION AT NAV:

At Nav, we celebrate what makes our employees unique because the businesses we serve are progressively diverse and distinctly original. Navericks are diverse, side hustlers, immigrants, veterans, queer, and we push generational boundaries. We are college dropouts, PhDs, special needs parents, allies, pet owners and community leaders. Navericks are human.  We are committed to upholding a safe, supportive environment where everyone matters. We are committed to making a better future for all of us. We have created a workplace where people of all backgrounds can express their identities authentically. To put it simply we want you to be proud to be you.

OUR COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY IS SIMPLE BUT POWERFUL:

• We believe great, enduring relationships are grounded in trust and transparency.
• Compensation shouldn’t be a distraction, and employees should understand how pay and career advancement decisions are made.
• Providing equal pay for equal work is table stakes for being a great place to work.
• Gender and ethnic inequity should only be something that our children read about in history books.
• We believe providing Navsters with company ownership, competitive pay, and a range of meaningful benefits is the start of creating a culture where people want to give the best they’ve got — not because they’re simply making money, but because they’ve fallen in love with our vision, mission, values, and team.

• We hold ourselves accountable for delivering results
• We choose to not to be a victim of circumstance.
• We make decisions &  take responsibility so that we can act & support each other, rather than adopting defensive, and “finger pointing” behaviors.

Job Description

tl;dr: We're looking for an excellent engineer with solid Go experience to join our small, distributed development team. We're in Los Angeles, San Francisco & Paris; substantial time-zone overlap with CET (Paris) is key because our lead frontend engineer lives & works there.

Who we are

At Synthro, we are creating Foam, a new paradigm to collect, organize, create, and share your data, to help people think better together.

While we have developed core elements of the experience, we have many technical challenges ahead. Our team collaborates and leverages process, automated testing and group decision-making to get stuff done.

Our technology environment is Linux based, runs in AWS and utilizes Go, React, and JavaScript. We are leveraging an array of AWS services to deliver our solution and extensively take advantage of open-source solutions.

We're in the scrappy startup phase: we all work from home, even before the pandemic.

Role overview

We're hiring a Backend Developer to work with our team. You will focus on the backend for our web app. You will work closely with our frontend developer and be responsible for the API, data models, architecture, and AWS environment.

We love junior developers, but this role is for someone senior.

About you

Here's how to tell if you'd be a good fit for this job.

Must-haves

• You've built and shipped Go services (RESTful, HTTP), preferably something you can share with us
• You dream in idiomatic Go (2+ years experience highly desired)
• You don’t feel like you’re done until you have 85% unit test coverage
• You have solid knowledge of Postgres, specifically stored procedures & triggers
• You have solid working knowledge of core AWS services (ECS, EC2, RDS, S3, Cloudfront, Route 53)
• Your git history reflects you’re an excellent written (and verbal) communicator

Nice-to-haves

• You have worked from home or remotely for a distributed team
• You have experience with infrastructure-as-code (we use Terraform on AWS)
• You live in or within an hour of CET (Paris)

Why you might want to work with us

• We're small, so there are no layers of bureaucracy to work through. You can have a huge impact here.
• We have as few meetings as we can get away with.
• You can work remotely as long as you have substantial overlap with our primary time zones, Pacific and Central European. We call these “office” hours.
• Outside of “office” hours, you can work whenever you like.

Why you might not want to work with us

• We’re a startup, with all the good and bad that comes with that.
• We’re a small team. At the end of the day, you need to be able to solve your own problems.
• You own the infrastructure so you need to deal with it when it breaks.

Pay

We're looking for someone great, not someone cheap. If you're expensive but amazing, we can probably make it work.

About Grafana Labs:

There are more than 700,000 active installations of Grafana around the globe, monitoring everything from beehives to climate change in the Alps. The instantly recognizable dashboards have been spotted everywhere from a SpaceX launch and Minecraft HQ to Wimbledon and the Tour de France. Grafana Labs also helps companies including Bloomberg, JPMorgan Chase, and eBay manage their observability strategies with full-stack offerings that can be run fully managed with Grafana Cloud, or self-managed with Grafana Enterprise Stack. The Grafana stack has grown to include two other open-source projects, Grafana Loki (for logs) and Grafana Tempo (for traces)

This is a remote position, and we are considering candidates in the North, Central & South Americas regions.

About Grafana Cloud:

Grafana Cloud is our composable observability platform that integrates metrics, logs, and traces with Grafana. It allows our customers to leverage the best open source observability software – including Prometheus, Cortex, Loki, and Tempo – without the overhead of installing, maintaining and scaling their own observability stack.

Our Grafana Cloud pipeline moves millions of data points, loglines, and traces per second from our customers’ environments into a highly available, low-latency stack that processes and stores the data, and serves it to dashboards and alerting tools. We aim to grow this to hundreds of millions per second, and it's critical that as we grow, we improve our performance, increase our reliability, and do it all more efficiently.

You would be joining one of our Cloud squads, whose responsibilities span from adapting and delivering our open-source offerings to a cloud environment that can support millions of users, writing software that allows those users to easily send data from within their infrastructure, or helping to build monitoring and alerting solutions. Our tech stack is mostly made up of services written in Go, running on multiple Kubernetes clusters that leverage Google’s Cloud Platform.

Our culture is remote-first and our engineering organization is largely remote. We provide guidance and meet regularly using video calls, so an independent attitude and strong communication skills are a must

Within 1 month you will be able to:

• Gain a deeper understanding of our cloud product and our customers
• Get to know the codebase and contribute to our growing list of third-party integrations
• Participate in ongoing design discussions that allow us to collaborate on and inform our technical decisions
• Significantly contribute to a major initiative in our roadmap

Within 3 months you will be able to:

• Take an active role in shaping our roadmap and your own career objectives
• Drive a project from initial ideation all the way to operations once it is in the hands of customers
• Embrace our open-source culture and contribute to other projects that may not directly fall within your team’s scope
• Be a part of your team’s on-call rotations and take ownership of the services you’re running

Requirements:

• You are familiar with programming languages like Go, C, C#, C++, or Rust
• You are able to write clean, robust, and performant software
• You have experience with network programming or distributed systems development

Nice to haves:

• Familiarity with operations/SRE and the concept of infrastructure as code
• Experience with the observability space in general (metrics, logging, tracing, monitoring, alerting)
• Experience with Kubernetes / Kafka / Cassandra / Bigtable / syslog / opentracing or similar technologies
• Familiarity with time-series applications and concepts, especially Graphite or Prometheus.

Equal Opportunity Employer- At Grafana Labs we’re building a company where a diverse mix of talented people want to come, stay, and do their best work. We know that our company runs on the hard work and the dedication of our passionate and creative employees.

We will recruit, train, compensate and promote regardless of race, religion, colour, national origin, gender, disability, age, veteran status, and all the other fascinating characteristics that make us different and unique. We believe that equality and diversity builds a strong organisation and we’re working hard to make sure that’s the foundation of our organisation as we grow.
