The Lead Engineer will be responsible for designing, building, and maintaining software that we can use across our projects and will also help to articulate what we're building to our clients and collaborators. You will be creating tools that help to make our code better - making it build easily, and deploy efficiently.

You will:

• Build, maintain, and support all of our development infrastructure.


• Create DevOps automation, automated monitoring of all systems, and architect continuous integration/deployment practices in all projects.


• Document, track, and manage all of our repositories.


• Contribute to all aspects of our iterative software development process including scoping, effort estimation, coding, testing, debugging, maintenance and support.


• Communicate about our code to the team, vendors, collaborators, and clients

You have:

• BS or BA degree in Computer Science, a related field, or equivalent experience

• Demonstrated ability to translate designs into modern, efficient, and responsive HTML and CSS.


• More than 4 years of demonstrated experience working with Javascript frameworks (React/Node)


• More than 5 years of experience building, deploying, and working with Content Management Systems (mostly Wordpress, sometimes Drupal, Contentful, etc)


• Strong background administering scalable infrastructure in a public cloud environment (Google Cloud Platform strongly preferred).


• Significant experience with Web Services, REST and API design.


• Experience working with authentication systems (Basic auth, Custom, or Auth0)


• Experience working with and integrating payment processing software (Stripe, Braintree)


• Worked with static site generators (we like Hugo)


• Familiarity with Linux/Unix environments and scripting in those environments


• Must be a self-starter and enjoy working in a team with other passionate professionals

Ideally, you might have:

• Native app development (react-native) experience


• Utilized and leveraged newer features and frameworks within React for state management (Context, MobX, etc)


• Experience working with mapping technologies (Mapbox, etc)


• Experience architecting, building, and deploying to production with Docker


• Demonstrated experience working with relational databases (write, optimize and troubleshoot complex SQL queries)


• Familiarity with Linux (especially yocto, and embedded linux)


• A background in Python


• Proficiency in scripting languages such as Bash
