We're hiring for a few roles.
First, we are looking for an infrastructure engineer. This role will be a mix of operations-related projects and developing features, with more emphasis on the former. You'll help with scaling, monitoring, and improving our infrastructure (such as our Elasticsearch clusters) You'll be writing monitoring scripts, responding to production incidents, improving our security and backup processes, and provisioning new servers to help us scale. You will get the opportunity to recommend/implement ways to modernize our infrastructure (ie. using Docker).
Second, we are looking for a backend engineer with experience in Ruby on Rails and distributed systems, who can help develop new features for our platform. If you're interested in crawling/storing/searching lots of data, and less interested in the operations side of things, this role is for you.
