Engineer #1 | Stealth stage analytics company | NYC/Remote Stealth stage analytics company is looking to bring on Engineer #1. I’ve bootstrapped this business over the last two years and just hit a $1MM run rate. This is a hands-on role and will allow you to basically own the technology stack and build out the technology team. A few of the projects you’ll be leading: - A streaming data pipeline on Kafka handling millions of events a day. - An open source data integration library that connects data to/from over 75+ of the most common data sources companies rely upon -A scheduler that deploys thousands of containers a day into Kubernetes clusters, efficiently migrating our customers’ data between systems. - An open source JavaScript event tracking library The technology stack is mostly JVM (Java and Scala) with some Python and ES6/React/Redux on the frontend. Everything is containerized and runs on Heroku and Kubernetes. Candidates should have a mastery of at least one language, and ideally have experience with the following: Docker/Kubernetes, SQL, Kafka, JavaScript, data warehouses (Redshift, Snowflake, BigQuery), ETL, data pipelines. Bonus points if you have experience managing engineering teams. This is a very early position so compensation can be whatever blend of salary/equity you prefer. Send me an email at slapshothn@gmail.com with a bit about who you are and what you’ve built. If I think there’s a fit, I’ll schedule a Skype/Hangout with you and tell you about the business and discuss the role in more depth.
