Description

• Work with our product team and customers to design, build, and ship core features to the Metaplane platform using Python and Java • Build integrations with tools throughout the data pipeline ecosystem including ETL tools (e.g. Airflow), warehouses (e.g. Snowflake), transformation tools (e.g. dbt), and business intelligence tools (e.g. Looker) • Scale our observation and machine learning pipeline that collects billions of metadata records for our customers • Scale our infrastructure in AWS using tools like Terraform • Improve our backend developer experience using tools like Gitbook, CircleCI, Datadog, and Sentry • Debug and fix production issues across multiple systems that are affecting our customers • Review code changes and design specs from teammates • Desire to own engineering end-to-end.

Requirements

• Has 3+ years working with backend technologies like Java, Python and Node.js (languages matter less than engineering experience, so don’t worry if you haven’t used one of these languages in a while!) • Has experience building scalable backend and distributed systems like APIs and workers. You’ve used or are interested in technologies like PostgreSQL, TimescaleDB, Redis, Message Queues, and ElasticSearch. • Has an extremely high bar for quality software - you can move fast and ship scalable code with the help of your team • Enjoys being close to the customer and owning projects to completion

• Competitive salary and equity • Fully covered health, dental, and vision insurance • 401(k) plan with employer match • Work-from-home stipend • Ownership of your work, and collaboration with a closely-knit team • Metaplane is an equal opportunity employer and we value diversity and inclusion at our company.
