About Us

MetaRouter is an advanced real-time data processing platform that specializes in managing dedicated, private environments for clients and allowing our platform to operate off of received data quickly, efficiently, and securely.

We endeavor to make it simple for every organization to collect data in a 1st-Party context and carefully and compliantly route it to 3rd-Party tools or partners. By eliminating the use of 3rd-party tags and moving digital advertising and marketing server-side, our clients not only keep customer data more private and secure but also see a dramatic increase in website performance, which leads to improved SEO, better return on advertising, and increased revenue.

3+ years of experience using React and Node or similar backend technology.

3+ years of experience using GraphQL or a similar data-query language.

2+ years of experience with SQL Databases and data modeling.

Experience with building and maintaining a 3rd Party component library based upon MUI.

A strong test driven mentality, creative curiosity, and love for challenging problems.

A fail fast mentality, ability to learn quickly, and a comfortability working in ambiguous environments.

• Hasura
• Analytics.js, Tag Management or similar client-side user-behavior-tracking systems
