We're looking for generalist backend and data engineers with experience building and maintaining complex software stacks and a passion for creating unusual yet practical technology products. Having used (or managed!) a PostgreSQL instance is a big plus and so is an experience with building data pipelines, including with modern tools like dbt.

You'll be an early engineering hire at a company that understands the value of solid software engineering. Most of our backend is written in mature Python (types, tests) with plenty of SQL and Lua. We have automated tests, deployments, alerting and monitoring in place and are able to go from a code change to it running in production in less than an hour. This all will let you spend your time doing work that actually matters instead of fighting the stack.

As we're an early stage company, no two days are the same at Splitgraph and your responsibilities will vary a lot. Here's some of the things you'll get to do:

We work remotely and we all have flexible schedules. Ideally you will be available for 4 hours of the day that overlap with the time the founders are awake in the UK. We chat on Mattermost and often have impromptu Zoom video calls.

We try our best to be responsible remote workers. We understand the challenges that come with it, and we build solutions to mitigate them, like using a Mattermost bot for standup messages.

We're thrilled that you'd like to join Splitgraph. To apply, you just need to answer a few geographical questions, upload your resume, and write a message to us. It shouldn't take you more than 10 minutes. If there's a mutual fit, we'll try to get back to you within two weeks.

Our interview process is quick and we can make our decision after 2-3 interviews, a mixture of behavioral and technical. You won't need to invert a binary tree.
