Job Description

This is a 100% remote role. UK/EU based only.

We are looking for Senior Software Developers who want to help build the next generation payment API in the cloud.

We'd like to hear from enthusiastic polyglot developers who want to work with the latest technologies, solve interesting problems and be part of a really great team. There are a wide range of problems to tackle, from configuring nginx proxies to writing custom payment routing and handling logic, and we contribute open source back to the community. We believe that the language you write the code in is just how you convey your solution to the computer and the real value is being able to think through a problem.

You will be working on new development projects, focused on best practice across the board, including automation of absolutely everything (Terraform for infrastructure deployments to AWS, CI/CD with contract-based testing and auto-deployment of services within Docker containers, etc.), pair programming and TDD/BDD. Although many of us live around London, we are operating as a remote team, and typically working from home and pair programming.

It’s very much a “best tool for the job” mentality at Form3 and our tech-stack is always evolving but to give you a flavour of what we’re currently working with here are some of the tools we use;

• Some of the languages we currently use are: Golang, Java, Python and Ruby
• Some of the tools we use: Kubernetes, Terraform, Docker, Vault, Consul, Linkerd
• Our platform runs in AWS where we use: SQS, SNS, EC2, ECS, RDS and others

We don’t mind whereabouts you are based as we offer the opportunity for our team to work remotely from anywhere in the UK or EU. In fact, most of our Developers work, utilising screen-share technology and pair-programming to share knowledge across the team. That being said, we also have London and Amsterdam offices, so should you occasionally wish to work from these, you'd be most welcome.

Your Experience

• Polyglot: Choosing the right tool to solve the problem is critical, and we expect you to have professional experience with at least 2 different programming languages and multiple platforms and tools.
• Distributed architecture: We expect you to have previous experience engineering complex distributed systems, and a view on topics such as service discovery, integration testing, inter-process communication, how to define your services and APIs, as well as experience with distributed data stores.
• Public cloud: You have worked with public cloud services (AWS, Google Cloud etc.)
• TDD/BDD: Code quality is key, and we expect you to have worked with Test-driven development (TDD) and Behaviour-driven development (BDD) and be familiar with the use of tools such as Cucumber.

Desirable Experience

• Most of our code is written in Java and Go, so experience with either would be helpful.
• All our services are built and managed as docker containers, so Kubernetes, and general docker experience is preferred.
• We like clean code, so experience with Event Sourcing/CQRS will be useful.
• We do contract-based testing, using tools such as Pact.
• We work as a devops team, so experience in automating operations (such as infrastructure as code, automated monitoring and alerting, build pipelines etc) would also be useful.

Whilst experience of the above technologies would be nice, it is by no means essential. We are looking to speak with well-rounded software professionals who have a breadth of experience across a variety of programming languages, are passionate about tech and enjoy working collaboratively within a team.

Perks & Benefits

• 100% Remote
• 30 days holiday (plus Bank Holidays)
• Pair programming, with an experienced team of engineers
• Competitive salary
• Latest technologies
• Company bonus scheme
• Pension contribution
• Be part of an incredible and diverse team

Interview Process

1. Introductory call with the Talent Team at Form3
2. Technical Test
3. Technical Interview

Job Description

Level is building a modern remote monitoring and management solution. We are a small, well-funded, team that recently launched our product. We are searching for a strong, multi-talented individual contributor who is comfortable with systems-level programming and networking and can contribute to our agent, written in Go.

Must-Haves

• Deep knowledge of a systems language like C, Rust, or Go.
• Not afraid to dig into an RFC. Low-level internals excites you, rather than scare you away.
• Experience with system-level APIs in Windows (win32), macOS, and/or Linux.
• Excellent written communicator.
• Willing to learn and work with Go.

Nice-to-Haves

• You are comfortable using GCC and find yourself at home going through a C codebase.
• Familiarity with RPC and common methods of IPC such as sockets and named pipes.
• Video encoding experience. You have worked with VP8 and understand the spec.
• Building cross-platform libraries, our Go agent compiles to Windows, Darwin, and Linux on a variety of architectures.

Things you might work on

• Building a cross-platform application management system to give users the ability to automatically install and update apps.
• Working with VP8 to reduce the latency and bandwidth when streaming a device.
• Creating a native GUI for the agent.
• Adding a proxy to the agent that enables remote access to routers and switches.
• Implementing Trickle ICE to improve WebRTC connection times.

Why you might want to work with us

• We are a small, fully remote engineering team, and there are no layers of bureaucracy. You can have a huge impact here.
• We are very flexible with working hours, we don't expect you to work a consistent block of time, and we trust you to get your work done.
• We launched within the last year and are starting to grow.

Why you might not want to work with us

• We are an early-stage startup, and while we are well funded, we are careful with our runway and haven't splurged on extra perks like gym memberships or 401k matching.
• You want to work with a large team. We believe that small teams are better and do not intend to hire more until it is painful enough to warrant doing so.

More About Us

We are a small, close-knit team working to upend the RMM market with our new product. We have recently launched and have acquired our first hundred customers. Though we are a startup, our investors have given us a multi-year runway.

Our agent team is small, with just two developers. This hire should be an experienced self-starter that can make an impact on our product development. We aren't interested in someone that just wants to work down a list of pre-defined tasks. Our ideal candidate loves working on products and will help shape the direction of ours. We're going to be improving this product for years and want someone to come on this journey with us.

We really like the Basecamp philosophy and try to make sure that it doesn’t have to be crazy at work. We won’t ask that you work weekends, or late into the night. We don’t mind if you need to leave for an appointment in the middle of the day. We understand that software development doesn’t happen for 8 hours straight and don’t worry about counting time in the chair. We trust that given a fair timeline with a scope that you help us determine you will be able to deliver features. We are concerned with the end goal, not micromanaging you on the way there.

Collaboration and communication are a critical aspect of how we work, a cover letter is a great way to provide a sample of how you communicate.

In your cover letter, please describe why you’re interested in working at Level, and what draws you to this role in particular. Specifics of your past experience that are relevant to this role are great to include, too.

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.
