Description

Our client makes data analytics software for a big market that's often overlooked by tech companies: industrial process data. Think pharmaceutical manufacturers, wind farms, and energy companies with tons of equipment and sensors. Our software engineers tackle hard problems in streaming calculation, distributed computing, and user interface design. The core of our product is a full-featured calculation engine that can perform complex math and execute machine learning algorithms on streaming time series data. We leverage generative AI technologies to drive adoption, usability, and faster outcomes with our software.

Our company was founded 100% remote and we're proud of it. You can work anywhere in a compatible time zone (our core hours are 8am-12pm Pacific). We use a variety of collaboration tools, like Zoom, Slack, and our homegrown Qube Virtual Office, which make us feel like we're in the same building together. We use agile tenets to iterate on both our product and development processes. We have a wonderful team of kind-hearted, talented engineers that love to collaborate, teach each other new tricks, and build products that exceed our customers' expectations.

What You Will Do

As a Principal Software Engineer, you will play a critical role in shaping the technical direction and architecture of our software platform. You will lead the design and development of complex software systems, working closely with cross-functional teams including product managers, designers, and other engineers. You will mentor and coach junior engineers, guiding them in best practices and helping them grow their skills. You will be a technical leader, driving innovation and spearheading the implementation of new technologies and frameworks.

Your Passion:

Passionate about crafting exceptional software, you revel in the art of designing and building with elegance, extensibility, and maintainability as your guiding principles.

Your Skills:

Renowned as one of the most productive engineers in your company, your commitment to continuous improvement sets you apart. Always striving to perfect your craft, you excel as a teammate, consistently coming up with innovative solutions. You possess an innate ability to identify areas for improvement without waiting for them to be pointed out. Your track record includes swift product and feature deliveries, showcasing proficiency in a continuous delivery model.

Meticulous and detail-oriented, you advocate for unit testing, continuous integration, and elegant solutions. Bugs are your adversaries, and you take pleasure in immediately addressing them. Eliminating technical debt while refactoring code excites you.

Collaboration:

Eager to collaborate through pair programming and contribute to team acceleration, you consistently review and provide actionable feedback on code. Your passion extends to being one of the most product- and user-focused engineers. Because you actively engage with customers, you can articulate the rationale behind features and explain pain points for your fellow engineers.

Adaptable, versatile, and quick to learn, you bring fresh technologies and methodologies to the team, establishing yourself as a technological thought leader. Your influence is felt as you mentor colleagues, meeting deadlines through effective planning, prioritization, and accurate estimates.

The Tech Stack:

Comfortable across the tech stack, you excel in a JVM language for backend functionality. Your expertise extends to databases, distributed computing, and cloud platforms; you are frequently consulted for your prowess in more than one of these technologies.

Your Drive:

Driven by a desire for impact beyond individual contributions, you possess a holistic view, working seamlessly across boundaries for the benefit of the product and its users. Proactive in seeking and providing feedback, you maintain open communication about growth opportunities with your manager(s) and colleagues.

Armed with a bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent experience, you bring years of experience as a staff or principal software development engineer, leading successful multi-developer efforts.

Travel:

Occasional travel is not a deterrent for you; in fact, you welcome face-to-face interactions with colleagues. Seeking work-life balance, you aspire to contribute your skills to a startup with a promising future, surrounded by a diverse group of intelligent, collaborative individuals.
