Associate Full Stack Developer
New York, New York · Computer/SoftwareTITLE - Full-Stack Developer
DESCRIPTION - VANTA Partners' client is looking for software engineers that are problem solvers. While most have deep expertise in specific areas of the technology stack (front end, back end, data, security etc.), all are comfortable swimming across lanes. This is really important in delivering the product and platform outcomes that our customers expect. Our engineers are most interested in solving business problems with cutting edge cloud technologies and distributed systems. Let’s face it, most of this stuff is pretty new so “10 years of experience” isn’t really a credible calling card. We’re looking for fearless engineers who love ramping up quickly by getting their hands dirty with sophisticated, cutting edge technology. We want all of our staff to spend as much time directly working with clients as possible so being able to explain and justify technical decisions is also really important. We like the type of engineer that you can pair with a product manager and have them do their thing.
As our software engineer, you will:
- Translate business requirements into technical design and architecture
- Develop prototypes and demos quickly
- Function as part of an agile delivery process
- Work on distributed systems problems ranging from scheduling, resource management, messaging and infrastructure automation (with OSS systems such as Kubernetes)
- Solve sophisticated data and analytics problems at scale
- Apply machine learning and AI systems to real-world business problems
- Help clients modernize existing investments
- Build world-class user experiences across a range of interfaces
- Create automation systems for testing, continuous integration and continuous deployment
- Design APIs and extensibility models for platform use cases that haven’t yet been imagined
- Teach our clients how to build and deliver commercial software and services at scale
Requirements vary by level and seniority but always include:
- Passionate about delivering commercial software products and platforms to market
- Deeply technical and constantly in a state of learning
- Ability to communicate clearly and efficiently with a variety of audiences including developers, clients, customers, partners and executives
- Fearless in getting “hands on” with technology and execution
- Strong understanding of modern software engineering processes
- Deep understanding and interest in cloud and distributed systems architectures
- Comfortable with ambiguity with a drive for clarity
- Experience leading and growing technical talent (for software engineering managers)
