We’ve had the honor of serving some of the world’s greatest entrepreneurs and companies.

Today, we work side-by-side with great companies solving the world's biggest problems; companies like SpaceX, Anduril, HackerOne, Cloud9, and others.

  • 2+ years of software development experience, with significant contributions that you can talk to
  • Exceptional coding skills in Javascript
    • Additional skills in Python, especially Flask, Django or FastAPI are a major plus
  • Experience with React (including Hooks and Context) or similar front-end framework

  • Experience with any of the following is a bonus:
    • SQL skills and working knowledge of multiple database types are a plus
    • DevOps
    • Modern ETL tools (Apache Beam, Kafka, Spark or similar)

  • You’ll be part of shaping the direction of a brand-new data product
