**Introduction**
Seeq makes data analytics software for a big market that’s often overlooked by
tech companies: industrial process data. Think pharmaceutical manufacturers,
wind farms, and energy companies with tons of equipment and sensors. Our
software engineers tackle hard problems in streaming calculations, storage and
distributed computing, and we create elegant data visualizations with smooth
interactivity.
Our company is 100% remote and proud of it. We use a variety of collaboration
tools, like Zoom, Slack, and our homegrown Qube Virtual Office, which makes us
feel like we're in the same building together. We use agile tenets to iterate
on both our product and development processes. We have a wonderful team of
kind-hearted, talented engineers that love to collaborate, teach each other
new tricks, and build products that exceed our customers’ expectations.
Our technology stack is largely JVM languages (Java, Kotlin) on the backend,
and TypeScript + React on the frontend, but we also have a growing ecosystem
of languages and frameworks we use for Machine Learning, Generative AI, and
DevOps (Python, Terraform). The core of our product is a full-featured
calculation engine that can perform complex math and execute machine learning
algorithms on streaming time series data. The Seeq platform is enhanced by
Python libraries and Jupyter notebooks to enable extensibility and data
science workflows. Seeq SaaS (software-as-a-service) runs this functionality
on a cloud-native infrastructure layer built in Kubernetes.
**Skills & Requirements**
You love to design and build great software. Elegant, extensible, and
maintainable architecture brings you joy.
You are typically one of the most highly productive engineers in your company
or team. You are constantly finding ways to perfect your craft, be a better
teammate, and come up with cool stuff. You recognize when something needs to
be improved and don’t wait for it to be pointed out. You have a consistent
record of shipping products or features rapidly, demonstrating proficiency in
a continuous delivery model. You are eager to pair-program with colleagues,
can review others' code quickly and make the entire team faster with your
teaching and guidance.
You are typically among the most product- and user-focused engineers in your
company or team. You seek out regular customer interactions, you can
articulate the “why” behind features and use cases, you explain pain points to
your fellow engineers. You are equally energized by working on large projects
and by fixing the little things that annoy users.
You’re disciplined with a high attention to detail. You evangelize unit
testing, continuous integration, and elegant solutions. You are allergic to
bugs and have to take care of them immediately. You delight in burning
technical debt when you refactor code.
You’re flexible, versatile, reliable, and learn quickly. You regularly bring
new technologies and methodologies to the team and cultivate a high degree of
influence as a technological thought leader, while giving your teammates the
respect they deserve. You meet deadlines through wise planning, prioritizing,
and accurate estimates, proactively communicating adjustments that need to be
made well in advance. You typically mentor 2 or more colleagues on technical
skill at any one time.
You proactively solicit feedback and are candid about communicating your own
growth opportunities with your manager(s) and colleagues. You provide
constructive feedback to teammates and respect their autonomy.
You are comfortable working across the tech stack. You are proficient in a JVM
language (Kotlin, Java, Scala, etc.) or Python for backend functionality. You
want to work with databases (Postgres), distributed computing (Kubernetes) and
cloud platforms (AWS, Azure). When you work on the front-end, you want to
build beautiful pages for our Typescript + React application. You are an
expert in at least one of these technologies. You're interested in finding the
best tool to solve a problem without getting caught up in whether it's the new
hip thing.
You are self-aware and want to have an impact that extends beyond your
individual technical contributions. You see the big picture and work across
boundaries seamlessly, focusing on outcomes and doing what’s right for the
product and users.
You have a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or equivalent relevant
experience plus years of experience as a Staff or Principal software
development engineer. You have led successful, large multi-developer efforts
and enjoy helping others learn and attain their goals.
You are up for traveling occasionally to hang out with your colleagues and get
some face-to-face time.
You want to be in a position at a company where a balance between work and
life is possible.
You want to work with a diverse group of really smart people that love working
together. And you want to work for a startup with lots of happy customers,
good investors and a bright future.
