Senior Backend Developer

Posted May 26

At Eppo, we are building the future of experimentation, so that every company can have an entrepreneurial, customer oriented culture.

Our next-gen feature flagging and experimentation platform allows data, product and ML teams to run 10x more experiments with existing infrastructure and headcount. We dramatically lower the overhead of running AB experiments by automating all of the experiment operations work, and wrapping the results in collaborative workflows.

Our team is made up of veteran product builders from Airbnb, Snowflake and Slack, and our product is powering experimentation at some of top companies around the world. We’ve raised over $19M in Seed and Series A funding backed by top-tier venture firms like Menlo VC and Amplify Partners.

About the Role

We are looking for a senior backend developer who is interested in working with big data systems. You will play a leadership role with our data engineering team to build out the (very) high scale systems that manage our customers experiments using Big Query, Snowflake, and RedShift. This is a role for a true polyglot, capable of solving hard engineering problems that work across different data architectures to make experiments work for our customers. You will write backend software using Next.js (Typescript) to power AirFlow tasks and our front-end API.

At Eppo we work with data scientists and engineers at some of the world’s largest technology companies. You will become an expert in these systems and see first-hand what the bleeding edge of data technology looks like today.

Eppo is changing how companies make decisions by combining the modern data stack with high velocity experimentation. Our goal is to empower our customers to learn about the world and their business in ways they never thought possible before, and we need your help!
