Job Description

Head of Engineering

We are seeking a hands-on Head of Engineering for our well funded e-commerce fulfillment startup

At Bezos, our vision is to Deliver Happiness: For our team, for the end consumers, for our e-commerce sellers as well as our logistics partners.

Exciting times in e-commerce: E-commerce sales in Europe is projected to be Ā£406 billion by 2023, expected to grow 8% per year between 2018-2023. The growth is driven by consumers that increasingly buy more online as well as the emergence of small and medium e-commerce sellers, which have grown at 18% and 28% per year, respectively between 2009-2017. There are 200,000 small and medium e-commerce sellers in the UK alone, selling their products through multiple channels, including marketplaces such as Amazon and eBay, their own websites, and on social media like Facebook and Instagram. Today, these small and medium sellers are ignored by the large incumbent logistics service providers and we are on a mission to change that.

Building a next generation Fulfillment-as-a-Service platform: With this explosive growth in e-commerce, the demand for e-commerce fulfilment and delivery is booming. Bezos is a next generation Fulfillment-as-a-Service (FaaS) platform, that allows small and medium e-commerce sellers to outsource their storage, fulfilment, delivery, and returns and focus on what is more important: growing their businesses. Bezosā€™ operational model is based on partnering with certified logistics suppliers that will execute the different services on our behalf. We believe there is a massive market opportunity to serve these currently unattended and fast growing small and medium e-commerce sellers. We believe that the e-commerce logistics landscape will give place to significant disruption opportunities, and we are planning on taking a leading role to achieve them.

Two founders with proven track records: The founding team consists of Diego Lijtmaer and Vernon Tjon-Soei-Len, who are two seasoned technology executives with experience in e-commerce, the gig economy and last mile delivery industry. Diego built the business development and logistics functions at Just Eat Plc (food delivery, FTSE 100), founded and ran a hospitality business Bacanal and worked in investment banking at UBS (LinkedIn profile here). Vernon was the Director of Amazon Flex UK (part of Amazonā€™s Last Mile Product & Technology team) and part of the Senior Leadership Team of Amazon Logistics UK, and prior to that worked at Zipcar, Bain & Company and JPMorgan (LinkedIn profile here).

We are looking for an exceptional technology leader: Someone that gets excited about the adventure of a startup and wants to build a world class billion dollar business. Someone that enjoys transforming industries, that enjoys changing the way businesses and consumers think about delivering and receiving e-commerce orders. Someone that is hands on, solves problems, and gets their hands dirty in the execution. Someone that has a demonstrated track record of building amazing technology and building and leading high performance tech teams.

Key responsibilities:

  • Build Bezosā€™ Fulfillment-as-a-Service platform
  • Lead technology strategy, develop the technical solution, the architecture, the integration with other processes and systems and develop the Artificial Intelligence engine that manages our processes
  • Own the engineering product roadmap, prioritising development efforts in line with company objectives
  • Build a world class tech team: Hire, onboard and develop the best talent and cultivate an inspiring team culture with us
  • Collaborate with sellers, logistics providers and internal teams to fix bugs and improve our products
  • Part of the executive team, making sure the companyā€™s technology is aligned with the business objectives

Must have requirements:

  • 5 years+ experience of software and technology development, ideally 2 years+ in a startup
  • Experience in developing technology for e-commerce, logistics, last mile or supply chain
  • Experience in back-end integrations, APIs and microservices, cloud architecture fundamentals (AWS or Google Cloud), databases
  • A charismatic technology leader: Experience in hiring, managing and leading engineering teams
  • A strategic thinker and a doer: the ability to build bridges between strategy and execution and balance short term and long term objectives
  • A product-focused engineer that is customer-centric
  • Ability to communicate complex technology solutions to different stakeholders
  • Passion for delivering results, but also learning from failure
  • Analytical and data-driven: support decisions with hard facts, data and numbers
  • Experience and ability to lead agile product engineering in a fast growing start up
  • Knowledge of existing and emerging technologies: Evaluate multiple technologies and identify those that are the best fit for the business
  • A positive outlook, boundless energy and thrive on collaboration in agile and startup environments
  • Good vibes: Fostering team spirit; someone all developers look up to and aspire to work with

Preferred requirements (nice to have):

  • Understanding of e-commerce platforms (Marketplaces, Shopify, WooCommerce, Amazon), logistics systems such as warehouse and inventory management systems
  • Experience with managing distributed/remote software developers
  • Experience with node.js or Golang (Go)
  • Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
  • Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical Engineering or a related field

We strive to create an exciting and amazing opportunities where our team members love to work and have fun with each other. We offer a competitive compensation package which includes an attractive base salary and stock options.

This is a super exciting role and a critical hire for our team, as you will join our startup as one of the very first employees.

Job Description

Stuart (DPD Group) is a sustainable šŸŒ± last-mile logistics company that connects retailers and e-merchants to a fleet of geolocalised couriers across several countries in Europe.

Our Mission šŸš€ We are an impact-driven company that aims to build the future of logistics for a more sustainable world: shared, efficient and reliable. We are committed to creating a new standard for urban deliveries that meet todayā€™s environmental and social challenges while offering a premium delivery experience blending speed, flexibility and convenience.

Our motto: ā€œMake every delivery a moment all of us can truly celebrate!ā€ More than 3000+ leading brands already partner with us across Restaurants, Grocery, Retail & Luxury, eCommerce and Professional Services to deliver all types of goods at the tap of a button. Stuart is a highly diverse and inclusive company of 700+ employees with 90+ nationalities working across France šŸ‡«šŸ‡·, Italy šŸ‡®šŸ‡¹, Poland šŸ‡µšŸ‡±, Portugal šŸ‡µšŸ‡¹, Spain šŸ‡ŖšŸ‡ø and the U.K. šŸ‡¬šŸ‡§

Itā€™s the right moment and the right place for us to make an impact on millions of people, as home delivery services hit a record high. And guess what? You can help us fulfil our vision šŸ™Œ

Letā€™s talk about Software Engineering šŸŒŸ

We are looking for a Platform Engineer šŸ¤– to work in our new developer experience department in the deployment team. We want to build an amazing Internal Developer Platform. In order to achieve that goal, we want to give time and space to a group of people that are very passionate about how an elite software development team works and wants to help to optimize our teamā€™s workflow. We want all teams to be able to self-service their needs without the need to put a ticket on any board when they need something.

We want to treat our developer platform as a product. We want to iterate it step by step making the lives of the rest of the developers in the company easier so they can focus on the business needs.

This team will be a mix of putting together existing open source solutions and building our own. We use things like Kubernetes, ArgoCD, or Crossplane to set the foundations for the rest of our teams.

You will decide how our services will be configured and, following the ā€œautomate all the thingsā€ mantra, we expect you to automate these decisions so that they are easy to follow by the rest of the engineering team.

If we had to play the buzzword bingo weā€™d say: - Solid knowledge of a programming language. It would be great if it was Go - Microservices: Orchestration, build pipelines, test pipelines - Kubernetes and tools to create abstractions on top of it. KuveVela, Crossplane - ArgoCD

In this team you will become an expert in these technologies and you will be able to provide abstractions so that the rest of the engineering team does not have to.

You can learn more about our team in our engineering blog: https://medium.com/stuart-engineering

What will I be doing? šŸ¤”

In your first monthā€¦

You will be assigned to an onboarding buddy who will help you make yourself at home at Stuart. You will start meeting people from all departments to learn more about what we do and start to understand the general principles that are driving our architecture. You should get in touch with how we are deploying our software today and where we want to go in the future.You will be paired with some teammates to start delivering your first code.

In three monthsā€¦

You should start to understand the different processes that happen across our company within the other teams. You should already be part of the deployment teamā€™s vision. You should be participating in your teamā€™s ceremonies. Each team has its own working agreements, as long as they are aligned within the company. Currently, your team is working according to the Kanban philosophy with periodic retrospectives.

In six monthsā€¦

As you begin to understand the department's long term vision you should start participating in some design discussions and even the recruitment of the team. You should already know some of our engineers so you can engage in discussions with them to find out their pain points in terms of our pipeline building and help them solve them.

What do we need from you? šŸ˜Ž

  • Other than technical skills we are looking for a person that is able to create a good experience for other engineers.
  • Empathic with other engineersā€™ pain points.
  • Able to have a discussion respecting the other person.
  • Willing to learn new technologies that force you out of your comfort zone. We deploy software built-in many programming languages, using many frameworks and with very heterogeneous requirements, which can sometimes be a challenge.
  • A good communicator since we will have to design and communicate processes to other engineers.

At Stuart, we believe that employees today want to evolve in collaborative, high-growth environments where they can demonstrate their abilities and thrive both professionally and personally. We are convinced that employees need to find alignment between their inner values and their companyā€™s culture and mission to unlock their full potential. We work to create a culture of empowerment, continuous learning and growth where everyone can bring expertise, own projects and easily measure their impact šŸ™Œ

Stuart is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace dedicated to promoting diversity. We donā€™t discriminate on the basis of race, religion, colour, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status or disability status šŸ’™

We provide computing equipment and cover reasonable costs incurred from running a home office.

Normally, as a new starter, you'd come to the office for a few weeks to get to know each other. Due to Coronavirus you will no-doubt join us remotely, at least temporarily, which will bring interesting challenges in how best to introduce you to, and integrate you into, the development teamā€”how to train you, how to help familiarise yourself with our systems and ways of working. We see this as an interesting challenge so weā€™re working it out at the moment. We're planning a fully-remote ā€˜onboardingā€™ process with team meetups, one-to-one sessions and pair programming as well as online social gatherings for you when you join.

Backend Go Software Engineer
Geckoboard
London, United Kingdom / Remote (UK)
Ā£65,000 to Ā£80,000 a year
November 2020
3 Applicants This Week
More Than 6 Months Old

Job Description

Excited about the idea of working on distributed systems at scale? Want to be writing Go everyday? With great people? Weā€™re looking for curious problem solvers to do just that.

At Geckoboard, weā€™re working to help teams achieve their goals by enabling a fresh way of working. This revolves around making sure that important data gets seen and acted upon. Thatā€™s where our dashboards come in. Geckoboard is straightforward dashboard software that makes it quick and easy to surface live business data, metrics and KPIs for teams.

Our engineering culture

We're all here to build something great. You'll be joining a growing team of empowered engineers in a supportive environment that values experimentation, work-life balance and personal development. We've built a culture of knowledge sharing and feedback, so you'll be involved in planning and prioritisation of work as well as peer reviews and pair programming.

Learning is also a big part of our engineering culture. About once every fortnight you're able to take a whole day ā€” an Innovation Day ā€” to work on projects that interest you, learn new skills or contribute to open sourceā€¦ whatever it may be! We encourage these projects and often they have led to improvements in the way we work or concepts that have then been prioritised, developed further and added to our Product.

We work in small and focused cross-functional teams, usually made up of a Product Manager, a Designer, and a mix of Frontend and Backend Engineers. QA and Infrastructure tend to come in at the points they're needed or for specific projects. We scope out our project such that we're able to deliver meaningful work but small enough to iterate and take on board feedback quickly. We encourage our engineers to get involved in different teams and projects based on their interests, skills and opportunities to learn. We're also equally mindful about technical debt and make sure we dedicate time to addressing it.

Our teams

**Product
**Our product teams each own a different part of the product, building features that improve Geckoboard for our customers. Some of our recent work has ranged from a new send-to-Slack feature, SSO and in the team youā€™ll be joining initially, weā€™ve been building a brand new internal framework for importing, storing, and analysing data from third-party APIs we integrate with. We know that investing in our Data Platform is the best way we can deliver flexible, high-quality integrations quickly and easily. The new framework takes care of managing and scheduling imports, responding to webhooks, receiving analytics queries, migrating data from one version to the next and allows us to build internal gRPC services using a common protobuf interface upon it.

**Platform
**We believe that we can only be successful as an Engineering team if we are constantly and systematically investing in our tooling, our common systems, and our developer experience, this is where our Platform team comes in. Our recent work has ranged from rapid response work to improving test and trace coverage, migrating existing services to Go modules and support for other teams. We're also working on enabling older RESTful services to be migrated onto gRPC with a GraphQL API gateway in front.

You should apply if:

  • What weā€™ve described sounds interesting

  • Youā€™re interested in distributed systems

  • Youā€™ve worked with Go before*

  • You want to build a product that delights its users and genuinely serves their needs

  • Youā€™re collaborative; you empathise, listen and discuss

  • You actively seek out feedback in your work and to ensure you understand the problem youā€™re solving

We know that there are great candidates who may not exactly fit into what weā€™ve described above, or who have important skills we havenā€™t thought of. If thatā€™s you or youā€™re not sure, please apply, weā€™d love to hear from you.

  • Right now we're only considering mid-to-senior level candidates, if you're still developing your Go skillset and interested in joining the Geckoboard team, head to www.geckoboard.com/careers and get in touch, we'd love to hear from you and chat about future jobs!

Work where you work best:

While most of our team are normally based in our leafy East London office, a lot of us work remotely at least a day or two during the week. This means weā€™ve always been intentional about making sure our ways-of-working are remote-friendly so we can support that flexibility for everyone. We also have fully remote team members, though the expectation is that youā€™re comfortable with a visit to the London office about once a quarter (except during pandemics).

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, our office remains closed and everyone on the team is working from home presently. Weā€™re likely to continue working from home over the Winter. We keep a close eye on the government guidance, regularly update the team, and plan to open our office only when itā€™s safe to do so again.

Some of our team have shorter working weeks and weā€™re more than happy to try to accommodate this or another arrangement whenever possible. Just let us know what works best for you or that youā€™d like to chat about it in your application.

Logistics:

At this time, weā€™re only considering candidates who are (or will be) based in the United Kingdom (regardless of whether youā€™re onsite when out offices reopen or fully remote). Unfortunately, weā€™re unable to provide sponsorship for this role.

Our hiring process:

  • 20-30 minute call with a Talent Partner
  • 45 minute video call with the Hiring Manager
  • Take home exercise
  • Virtual onsite with the team - about 2.5 hours

The whole process takes about 2-3 weeks end to end, but weā€™re flexible!

Job Description

About Cuvva

Cuvva is making car insurance radically better.

Weā€™re creating truly flexible products that meet peopleā€™s real needs. Using lightning-fast technology to unlock better experiences and fairer prices for our customers, Cuvva is building the future of insurance every day.

Cuvva was the first UK company to sell hourly insurance through an app. Since then weā€™ve sold over 3 million policies and supported over 450,000 customers. Weā€™re a world-class team of over 100 people, passionate about solving our customersā€™ problems. Join us.

Why work for Cuvva?

We donā€™t cut corners. We strive to do the right thing, even when that makes life more difficult for us.

We are customer centric and everyone in every area of the businessā€“including our CEO & Founder Freddyā€“is expected to spend a few hours a month on customer support. This is so we all fully understand customer needs and how the app works! Hereā€™s a blog post on our ā€˜Cops Clubā€™.

Weā€™ve nurtured an awesome team culture. We always speak up when we have an idea - but also know when to let go and get behind something else. And weā€™re comfortable giving and receiving honest feedback, and trying new ways of doing things.

Weā€™re building a diverse team from different backgrounds, outlooks and experiences. Everyone is given a fair chance of getting a role at Cuvva. Even if you secretly donā€™t love insurance, trust us, youā€™ll love what weā€™re building.

About the role

Youā€™ll work in one of our cross-functional product squads, helping the team achieve their goals - whether thatā€™s building a new service in our backend platform, creating a new version of an existing API to deliver a new feature, or creating a CLI tool to automate something.

We work in a highly collaborative fashion, and maintain an open and transparent work environment. Engineers at Cuvva donā€™t just write code or implement against a spec. Youā€™ll be expected and encouraged to take part in the entire product development process from problem-discovery to solution design, to implementation and rollout.

Each product squad autonomously owns an area of the Cuvva product. Squads are made up of engineers from multiple disciplines (backend, web, iOS, Android), product and content designers, and a product manager. Engineers at Cuvva come from a variety of backgrounds and have different but complementary skill sets. We donā€™t require a computer science degree - many of us are self-taught.

Our approach

We value consistently-written, simple, resilient systems. Our backend is made up of many standalone services with a JSON-based RPC interface. We aim to create a client-agnostic API design suitable for a variety of clients (mobile apps, website, internal tooling, 3rd parties). Because weā€™re a regulated financial company, we have interesting and rigorous requirements to meet with regards to data security and auditability.

Most systems are written in Go (some older ones are Javascript), backed by either Postgres or Mongo, and are hosted in a container environment. We heavily lean on AWS tooling such as S3, Lambda, and SQS, and we occasionally build integrations with more ā€œlegacyā€ 3rd party systems in the insurance industry.

You can find out more about our backend systems here: Our libraries and Go tooling is open sourced on GitHub ā€œShowing off our K-sortable IDsā€ our blog

ā€œHow we analyse and test new pricing modelsā€ our blog

ā€œHow we test and roll out new product featuresā€ our blog

You'll do great here if you:

ā€¢ Have genuine interest and curiosity about the Cuvva product, and consumer insurance in general

ā€¢ Enjoy working as a team to solve problems collaboratively

ā€¢ Have around 5 years of experience building rock-solid backend systems and APIs

ā€¢ Have a track record of shipping great quality code with real customer impact

ā€¢ Be comfortable and productive working with Go

ā€¢Ā We donā€™t require commercial Go experience but you would be expected to have a basic understanding and a willingness to learn

ā€¢ Having a background with at least one statically-typed language is a good sign

ā€¢Ā Know your way around the major AWS services (or similar cloud services), and have an enthusiasm for cloud services in general

ā€¢Ā Be comfortable working with containers (e.g. Docker, K8S, ECR, container based CI platforms)


Perks & Benefits

Benefits

As well as a competitive salary (Ā£75-90k, dependent on experience) and equity based remuneration, benefits of working at Cuvva include:

ā€¢ Brand new MacBook šŸ’»

ā€¢ Flexible working

ā€¢ Wellbeing, personal development and work from home budgets

ā€¢ Yearly increases to budgets and holiday allowances
