We're driven by a desire to transform and modernize what's antiquated, automate the manual, and solve real-world problems through innovative connectivity solutions. As a testament to our success, we're proud to stand as a financially stable and profitable company.

• Have an appreciation of functional programming and a strong desire to become an expert Elixir programmer.
• You take a thoughtful approach to decision making, knowing when to move fast and when to long-term optimize.
• Have experience working with relational databases at scale.Understand the challenges inherent in concurrent and distributed programming.
• Have deep knowledge of microservices architecture patterns and anti-patterns.
• Have familiarity with Docker, Kubernetes, Consul, Prometheus, Grafana and/or RabbitMQ.
• You keep up to date with the latest technologies and patterns, and enjoy sharing what you’ve learned.
• You're a team player and willing to put the team's success ahead of your own.

Bonus Points For

• Experience building or operating customer-facing APIs, gateways, auth systems, or internal platforms.
• You want to work in a fast-paced, product-driven environment.
• Have experience with Envoy.
