- Both senior and junior positions are welcome
What We Look For In You
-
Problem Solving: You don’t just write code based on requirements, you debate the requirements with us.
-
Coding: You write good code, you’ve written code that handle a lot of load, and you enjoy optimizing and refactoring your code to make it faster
-
Culture & Mindset: You’re a team player; you understand how it’s like working for a startup – doing anything and everything needed (from writing blog posts, to help customers with their data problem)
-
Tech Stack: we use Ruby, PostgreSQL, Redis, Vue.js, ES6 and a lot of SQLs. It’s great if you know these, but it’s not a big deal. We’re confident you’ll pick these up quickly on the job.
Basically, you will not just implement features based on a task list. We need your original ideas, creativity and critical thinking skills to help us build a great data platform.
Interesting Engineering Projects
- Zero-downtime deployment for long-running background jobs
- Writing a database abstraction layer to interface with different database technologies at once: PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redshift, BigQuery, Presto
- Implement alert monitoring system using statistical algorithms
- ETL customer’s data from MongoDB to relational DBs with minimal overhead.
- Parsing SQL into an AST (abstract syntax tree) to understand semantics and suggest optimizations
- Build a sandbox environment to execute arbitrary Python code that still ensures security
Our Interview Process
- We want to know how it feels like to work together. First you’ll see Holistics and how our customers are using it. Later we’ll code together online, or review your solution to an offline code challenge.
- When you come onsite, you’ll pair program with our engineers on Holistics codebase
