Original posting

Senior Software Engineer | AcademicWorks | Austin, TX | Onsite (Relocation Available) -- Solve hard problems that truly matter with a team that's smart, experienced, and kind. The Company: A small-and-growing (45 members) company using technology to improve access to higher education The Department: A 3-member product engineering team within an 11-member engineering department Technical Details: Rails, AWS, Postgres, Elasticsearch, Cassandra, Redis, Memcached, and some internal tooling in Go The Interview Process: You'll talk to me (Product Engineering Manager), then our CTO, do some remote coding to chat code, come on-site and pair, meet the team, and meet a founder. -- You're pragmatic, smart, work well with others, and take ownership of features from planning to production. Preferably, you're proficient with some of our technical stack, and you'll make the entire team better as an individual contributor, a teacher, and an occasional foil. We take a lot of pride in accomplishing disproportionately big tasks, and to do that we treat engineers like professionals with clear expectations and regular feedback. Our company values are kindness and respect, engagement, and obsession with our clients' experience, and we all strive to exhibit those daily. -- jcody@academicworks.com More: https://gist.github.com/jpcody/f1187d6d0828d6620633f8f6a3b3d...
