About You

  • A collaborative team player with industry experience writing backend services at scale using C++, Go and Python
  • Embrace the opportunity to work in a polyglot development environment, where you can leverage various cutting-edge technologies to build robust solutions.
  • You must thoroughly understand foundational web services technologies such as TCP, REST, Protobuf, and JSON, as these form the backbone of our services.
  • Experience with cloud technology (AWS preferred) and designing solutions that leverage its unique advantages.
  • Work with the latest and most in-demand technologies, concepts, and approaches, including DevOps, Microservices, IoT, Security and more.
  • Collaborative mindset and a passion for technology and learning. Enjoys mentoring teammates and helping everyone perform better.

  • Sound knowledge of working with one or more of the following data handling technologies (SQL, AWS IoT, Redis, Amazon SQS, Elasticsearch, Kafka)
  • Comfortable with the CLI and shell scripting
  • Knowledge of containerization and orchestration (Docker, Kubernetes, or ECS)

  • Aim High - Always challenging ourselves and others to raise the bar.
  • No Ego - Maintaining a “no job too small” attitude, and an open, inclusive and humble style.
  • One Team - Taking a highly collaborative approach to achieving success.

We are committed to cultivating a diverse and inclusive workplace, and we believe our work is enriched when we incorporate a multitude of perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences. We want everyone who works here to thrive and contribute to not only our mission of keeping every home secure, but also to making our workplace safe and supportive for others.
