San Francisco - Streak (<a href=") |  Profitable and growing | Tech Leads (Backend, Mobile and Front-End) | ONSITE | H1-B Transfers welcome
Here are the hard problems you'll work on here at Streak:
Sales Autopilot
We want to do for salespeople what autopilot did for pilots. We will suggest to sales professionals the actions they need to take next to close deals. They'll instead need to monitor our "autopilot" system and manually override only when needed. Unlike most AI startups, we can actually build this - we have 100M+ datapoints of sales professionals manually closing deals to make the training actually possible.
Email Graphs
We're building systems to better understand how organizations communicate with one another. Email is currently siloed into individual user inboxes, we're building a graph database containing every email message in our users' inboxes to give them insights into how their company communicates with their customers.
Reverse Engineer Gmail
We strive for deep integration with Gmail, because that's where our users live. Our integration has to be seamless, deep, performant, resilient and secure. It's such a hard problem, even our competitors use our tech (InboxSDK). We're doing it next for Inbox, Calendar, and more.
Outside of the hard problems you'll also have a very large impact, not just on our organization but on our customers. We have the best of both worlds: we're small (6 eng) so no meetings and other big company BS, but are profitable (millions in revenue) with a wide variety of customers that use Streak everyday for hours at a time.
Tech Stack:
Backend is 95% Java and 5% Go (and growing) on Google App Engine (<a href=").
Front-end is React + in-house framework for handling data synchronization.
Full automated end-to-end test coverage of all our features along with a growing set of unit tests to handle edge cases. If it's green you can deploy with confidence.
