Original posting

Sleeper | SF Bay Area | Onsite | Backend (Elixir/Cassandra) | Full-time | $125K-$225K + equity | https://sleeper.app/jobs Sleeper is a messenger platform for sports fans. Families, friends, and co-workers use our apps to compete with each other in fantasy leagues, with chat being the primarily activity. Our mission is to bring existing groups of people closer together through sports. We recently closed our Series A, backed by Tier 1 VCs. There’s a lot of interesting problems to solve in scalability, data integrity, optimization, and more. Elixir / Cassandra knowledge is not a prerequisite. We also contribute to open source: https://hex.pm/packages/snowflake, https://hex.pm/packages/triton. Our interview process is straightforward and does not include any whiteboarding. It’s a phone call (20 min), a take-home challenge in the comfort of your own home (2 hours), and an on-site chat about systems architecture + lunch with team (2 hours). If that interests you, please email weixi@sleeper.app.
