You’ll Be Working On Projects Like These



Solving such large and complex problems will bring you into contact with new technology and some of the world’s most interesting organisations and academics in machine learning, remote sensing, and planetary data.



Our Culture “This Is How We Do Things Here”



Our aim is to help the world become a better place, therefore we need to make sure we care about our people and empower them to build great things. These are some of the things that define our culture:



We Trust

• Our team structure relies on self-organisation.


• We want to work with colleagues who don't have to look ‘up’ for approval, nor look ‘down’ and give instructions.


• As soon as you step inside, we will provide you with the best tools and technology, and then will trust you to do great things.
  
   

We Care

• For ourselves, our colleagues, the organisation.


• We are driven to change the world for good and that's embedded in everything we do.
  
   

We Grow

• As we are always embarking on new projects and challenges, a continuous learning mindset and a “Can Do” attitude is a must


• We are conscientious, we focus on learning and achieving our goals


• We empower people to make decisions, to plot their own paths with help from all around them
  
   

We Have Fun

• We know what we do is important and we have a strong sense of responsibility for the work we do.


• But we also know that you need to balance seriousness with fun. If you can make people smile you will be off to a great start!
  
   

A day in the life of a Software Engineer at Us



We’re looking for someone to work alongside a world class and super talented team of engineers, designers, and scientists. Someone who is passionate about using their creativity and technical skills to make a difference in people’s lives, the environment and to help make the world a better place.

• You will be designing and developing cross-functional, multi-platform application systems to ingest, process, analyze and serve large amounts of data in the cloud, often in real time, and ensuring their craftsmanship, availability, resilience, and scalability.


• Working hands-on across our stack is one of the things Engineers at  do the most. You will be working on NodeJS, Rails and/or the Python stack and will also be experimenting with new technologies. If you don't know about a specific technology or get stuck on a tricky problem, you will always have someone around to help you learn and move forward.


• A lot of your time will be spent liaising with data scientists, front-end engineers, project managers, and designers to find novel and creative technical solutions that solve specific client/project needs and integrate disparate technologies such as remote sensing, machine learning, image processing or statistical computing into public APIs


• You will also be communicating with users, colleagues, leading scientists and decision makers to collect requirements, describe features and technical designs, and define product strategy.


• Last but not least, our engineers ensure software quality, robustness, and compliance with standards by reviewing code, documenting, and creating automated tests.

Programming Languages? You should have experience and proficiency in at least one of the following areas: Rails, NodeJS or Python, and general server-side programming concepts.



Along With The Above, And Depending On Your Seniority And Experience, We Would Love To Talk To You If You Think You Can Add Value On One Or More Of The Areas Listed Below

• Designing systems based on modular architectures such as microservices, serverless, etc.


• You are comfortable working with Docker and Docker Compose, and familiar with Kubernetes.


• You have used SQL and/or document-based datasets in real world projects
