Description
Sidecar’s engineering team is changing transportation as you know it. We are on the front lines of one of tech's breakout models, and we’re looking for high-caliber developers to help us build the future of ridesharing. We believe in good working relationships, refined but flexible processes, flat authority structures, and innovation.
You will work with the rest of the team on all aspects of our backend, potentially touching everything from server management to architecture, to debugging and building. We put a lot of faith in each of our engineers, and everyone on the team handles mission-critical projects on a regular basis.
We're building our new infrastructure in Python using the Pyramid framework, but we also maintain legacy code in PHP Codeigniter and Express.js. Experience with these (especially Python) is a big plus
Our office is located in downtown San Francisco and is full of smart, hard-working people collaborating to bring ride-sharing to everyone… and having a great time along the way!
Responsibilities
Code using primarily Python, Nodejs and PHP.
Work closely with other engineers on the team and build on each other’s ideas.
Participate in the design process and in code reviews.
Analyze and improve efficiency, scalability, and stability of various system resources.
Be proud of your work - what you do has a direct impact on our customers’ experience.
Requirements
Expert knowledge developing and debugging in PHP/Python.
Experience in the fraud space is a plus, but not required. Either way, you should be passionate about tackling the problem and the impact you can have on the company.
Passion for finding problems with software and helping ensure they never happen again.
Easily bored by monotony, would rather write a script to automate it.
- BS / MS in Computer Science or related field.
