WHAT YOU’LL WORK ON

Teamwork, open, and honest communication matter. Teammates spend much of their time mentoring, guiding, and supporting each other to promote the best understanding of our desired outcomes. Our code is often written in NodeJS and Python and served through Amazon Web Services. We create solutions using our own code, 3rd party software, AI models, and consumer web-services. We operate the systems we develop and have a rotating on-call schedule for off-site, local business-hours, contact. The team as a whole handles incidents - which are uncommon. Successfully operate within our engineering environment and help it evolve over time.
