Riffyn is looking for a mid-level back-end engineer to turn our one-of-a-kind product into something that can amaze our users for years to come. As more and more customers sign on and expand its use, Riffyn is shifting emphasis from new feature development to building a seamless and intuitive user experience on a rock-solid platform.

As part of that, we are breaking apart our monolithic app into services and microservices that can be developed, scaled, and tested independently, in order to deliver better experiences to our users more quickly and at scale.

You have

  • Experience working in a small, independent team to design, de-risk, and implement new features and refactor existing ones.
  • In-depth knowledge of at least one server-side programming language. We use JavaScript (Meteor + Node.js) for our web application and have services written in Python, Java, and are introducing Go. Some experience with JavaScript is required. Experience with Go (professionally or on your own) is a plus.
  • Some experience working with NoSQL databases like MongoDB and Elasticsearch. We also use Redis and Postgres and we're happy to teach you those.

You should

  • Know how to break a complex problem into simpler parts and be able to explain how you do it. If your prior experience doing this is not in software, so much the better!
  • Be a positive influence on your peers by modeling good work practices, sharing knowledge, and identifying problems early.
  • Improve continuously. Our code base has gotten us to where we are; we have learned a lot on the way, and we're refactoring and rewriting to do it again better.
  • Know or want to learn about how science actually happens. If you want to know how the software is actually used, our scientific consultants will be able to answer.

We offer

  • Interesting data problems—scientists measure a lot!
  • Room to experiment and find the best solution
  • Opportunity to establish Riffyn's best practices for years to come
  • Genuinely nice people to work with on a day-to-day basis

The base salary range for this position is $120k-130k.
