  • Document the systems you are building to ensure they can be maintained by the next generation of developers.
  • Serve as an on-call first responder for software owned by your team.

What You'll Bring

  • Extensive experience designing and implementing features, including designing and building APIs for others to consume. 
  • Experience with at least 2 major programming languages (C#, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, C++, Go, Python, etc.). 
  • A strong understanding of the SOLID principles. 
  • Passion, curiosity and a desire to continuously learn and grow.
  • Experience building and running cloud based microservices and distributed systems according to industry best practices. 
  • Experience using AWS.

Nice-to-Haves

  • Extensive professional experience in any of the major programming languages from above. 
  • Experience with lean/agile software development principles and practices, including continuous integration & delivery, test automation, etc.

  • 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.
  • Lift As We Climb - Investing in developing others and helping others around us succeed.
  • Lean & Nimble - Working with agility and efficiency to experiment in an often ambiguous environment.

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.
