Our cloud services are built in C#, Node.js, and Python. Our cloud infrastructure runs on Kubernetes and Google Cloud Platform. We use PostgresSQL, Nginx, and Elasticsearch. Client apps are built in C# or Dart/Flutter with Rust/C/C++ underpinnings. Our software is portable across Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and Linux. Our data and learning systems are built using Python (numpy, scipy, scikit-learn, pandas, etc), C++, SQL, and Airflow.
While a lot of our code is written in C#, this is not a Windows/Visual Studio kind of place. We use a limited subset of .NET as a portable runtime environment and most of our developers live on Mac/Linux machines using vim/emacs, make, zsh, and git.
The basics of remote work are important: a healthy curiosity about how things work, excellent English communication skills, and the ability to work independently and own projects to completion. We are a fairly flat organization, so we all self-manage and do grunt work when our projects require it. We support each other, so asking questions when you’re stuck – and helping others when you can – is a big part of our culture.
We obviously look for strong computer science fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, programming languages, distributed systems, databases, and information retrieval, and we expect that you write comprehensible code and think about maintainability. When things break – and they will – we’re always eager to help fix them.
