Ux Designer à France

Algolia was built to help users deliver an intuitive search-as-you-type experience on their websites and mobile apps. We provide a search API used by thousands of customers in more than 100 countries. Billions of search queries are answered every month thanks to the code we push into production every day.

We are looking for a Software Engineer to join the Metis SDK team. Metis is the cloud-based scalable architecture for NeuralSearch, our AI search engine, which incorporates both keyword and vector search. Metis consists of distributed components which orchestrate the building and storage of indices containing customer data and then querying that data to return search results. The role requires understanding and solving the challenges that come with complex distributed systems and designing and maintaining reusable libraries and frameworks for use by multiple internal teams.

The team is composed of engineers, most of whom are fully remote, with different skill sets and backgrounds. Your experience, your knowledge and your perspective will add to this diversity and help the team deliver products that make a difference.

• Be a key contributor to the design and development of libraries and frameworks for the Metis system
• Be responsible for operations including participation in out-of-hours on-call rota
• Work with a full-remote team, with the option to be either full-remote, hybrid or office based (Paris) yourself
• Be responsible for the quality and soundness of the system
• Share your expertise on distributed systems
• Work with other teams to identify, troubleshoot and resolve high impact issues

• Experience designing and operating distributed systems in production
• Experience working with large datasets and high traffic
• Rigor in high code quality, automated testing, and other engineering best practices
• Excellent spoken and written English skills
• Experience at our current stage and beyond ($50-200M ARR range, high growth, lots of change and building internal infrastructure).

• Experience in Go
• Experience building and maintaining libraries
• Sensitivity to Site Reliability Engineering

• GRIT - Problem-solving and perseverance capability in an ever-changing and growing environment.
• TRUST - Willingness to trust our co-workers and to take ownership.
• CANDOR - Ability to receive and give constructive feedback.
• CARE - Genuine care about other team members, our clients and the decisions we make in the company.
• HUMILITY - Aptitude for learning from others, putting ego aside.

Algolia’s flexible workplace model is designed to empower all Algolians to fulfill our mission to power search and discovery with ease. We place an emphasis on an individual’s impact, contribution, and output, over their physical location. Algolia is a high-trust environment and many of our team members have the autonomy to choose where they want to work and when.

While we have a global presence with physical offices in Paris, NYC, London, Sydney and Bucharest, we also offer many of our team members the option to work remotely either as fully remote or hybrid-remote employees. Please note that positions listed as \"Remote\" are only available for remote work within the specified country. Positions listed within a specific city are only available in that location - depending on the nature of the role it may be available with either a hybrid-remote or in-office schedule.

Algolia prides itself on being a pioneer and market leader offering an AI Search solution that empowers 17,000+ businesses to compose customer experiences at internet scale that predict what their users want with blazing fast search and web browse experience. Algolia powers more than 30 billion search requests a week – four times more than Microsoft Bing, Yahoo, Baidu, Yandex and DuckDuckGo combined.

Algolia is part of a cadre of innovative new companies that are driving the next generation of software development, creating APIs that make developers’ lives easier; solutions that are better than building from scratch and better than having to tweak monolithic SaaS solutions.

In 2021, the company closed $150 million in series D funding and quadrupled its post-money valuation of $2.25 billion. Being well capitalized enables Algolia to continue to invest in its market leading platform, to better serve its thousands of customers–including Under Armor, Petsmart, Stripe, Gymshark, and Walgreens, to name just a few.

If you share our values and our enthusiasm for building the world’s best search & discovery technology, we’d love to review your application!
