OVERVIEW
As a Staff Engineer at Automox you will be a technical leader for the Engineering department. You'll have fun working closely with a diverse team of Engineering Managers, Architects, and Product Managers to understand our customers and the market, to design solutions that customers are excited to use and tell others about. Your work will influence multiple teams and services with a focus on current and future state architecture.
You will not only do hands-on coding but will also help mentor and develop other engineers on strong engineering practices and design principles. This is a great opportunity for someone who thrives in an entrepreneurial environment that comes with a startup and is excited about making a big impact on the security of companies around the world.
What you'll be doing:
- Hands on coding using modern languages and frameworks in an AWS environment at least 50% of the time. We have a mix of Java (Spring), PHP, Go, and Python.
- You’ll be doing what you love: Designing, Building, Testing, and Releasing simple elegant software with a knack for breaking complex problems into clear, measurable deliverables.
- You’ll work on a team with other passionate engineers, designers, product managers, and program managers to deliver quality software often.
- Leading software development projects within your team and across the organization.
- Be a point of escalation in solving technical problems in critical components within our application architecture.
- Working closely with principle engineers to plan and scope team-level technical initiatives.
- Facilitate conversations to remove blockers and encourage collaboration within your team.
- Day to day you’ll bring your expertise in building scalable, cloud native solutions to mentor and develop other engineers on best practices.
- Working in an iterative Software Development Life Cycle. We’re not dogmatic about one agile methodology or another, but we do work in 2 week sprints with a focus on delivering high quality code in a DevOps culture.
- Participate in an on-call rotation to support the Automox platform.
What you bring to the table:
- Programming experience in Golang is required.
- Experience developing and designing complex systems to solve novel challenges across multiple products or services in an API driven architecture.
- Extensive experience in a variety of languages and frameworks with a focus on best in class development practices.
- Passion for mentoring and developing a team of diverse engineers, ensuring an inclusive culture where everyone’s voices, backgrounds, and experiences are valued and integrated into solutions.
- Demonstrated history of delivering enterprise level software in an agile environment.
- Experience and comfort working with a remote team across multiple time zones.
- Effective communication with leadership and engineers regarding planning, reporting, status and/or conflict/blocker mitigation.
- Promoter of transparency, visibility, and documentation across the team.
- Proficiency in the English language, both written and verbal, sufficient for success in a remote and largely asynchronous work environment.
