Full-Time

Headquartered in Provo, UT (~45 mins from Park City)

Are you ready to make a difference?

Are you looking to flex your technical and leadership skills in scaling out the team, products, and platform?

Are you passionate about designing and implementing cutting-edge technologies?

Would you like to make a  significant difference in the trajectory and success of a pre-IPO company?

About the Team

Our team is a collection of top-notch engineers (Execs include ex-Google and Amazon leadership) who are riding the cutting-edge of cloud computing and web scalability. We organize and sort terabytes of data and develop solutions that are used by millions of users, making complicated data collection and analysis easy.  We’ve created a very collaborative and fast-paced environment where new ideas are prototyped before we go full blast with them.  Anyone from Junior to Senior level engineers are enabled to come up with ideas and more so encouraged to do so as we're looking to you to help us collaborate to make our product and systems better.

The Opportunity

We need serious engineers who are ready to make a difference right away.  We use Scrum and it allows our engineers to add features and improvements to our products that will reach customers within weeks.  We offer the flexibility to move into three  areas of development depending on your background, experience, and preferences;  you could work in one or more of the following areas:

Product Development:   You will make data collection and analysis easy enough for an intern,  yet sophisticated enough for a Ph.D.  As a new engineer, you will be launched into extending, improving, and creating features and products to accomplish that very task. You will have the opportunity to research, prototype, and develop compelling solutions that are innovative, elegant, and engaging.

User-Interface Development and Design:   User experience and usability is a top priority — you might even call us a little bit obsessive.  You will help make sophisticated research simple by meticulously designing and implementing interfaces, using Ajax and similar technologies, to deliver an absolutely awesome user experience.

Back-end Software and Database Development:  We are getting ready to push our service-oriented architecture to the next level.  Do you think you are up to the task?  Use latest cutting-edge technology such as Hadoop, Hbase, Thrift, and other pioneering technologies to create high-performance, large-scale data stores for the largest companies in the world.

What’s In It For You:

Newly built floors and office with fun themes (ie, teams named after Gods, college section, philosophy icons, etc)

Culture of working hard and playing hard - with our on-site gym and arcade games located around the office

Get to know your co-workers outside of work at quarterly company-sponsored events (snowboarding/skiing/biking trips, golf tournaments and whatever Managers come up with)

Quarterly family events (yes, you can invite your entire family and significant other – we want to get to know them as well)!

Full snack area stocked with breakfast items, snacks and all-out soda machine (the ones you see at restaurants that we specifically negotiated to get here)

Weekly catered breakfast or lunch

You’ll be working with rock star leadership and engineers from Amazon and Google

You will make a difference and we want you to have the environment and team to do so.
