Projects you might do

• Bootstrap a central service of users using Elixir, Phoenix and PostgreSQL and migrate our products to use the service instead, and then write the Chef recipe so it can be deployed easily

• Respond to an outage on a system on which you have little familiarity and get it running again quickly

• Work with a third-party company to build an API integration that imports real-time data into Our Companydatabases in a robust, performant and extendable way

• Develop a user-friendly interface using the latest web technologies like Elm and backend systems in Elixir

Technologies we use

We currently have a suite of products written in Elixir and are transitioning towards a unified Elm/Elixir stack. You do not need to have experience with all of these technologies and practices, but candidates who most closely match our stack will be preferred, in order of importance:

• Elixir with Phoenix

• Elm

• GraphQL

• Git

• Agile SDLC

• PostgreSQL

• Amazon AWS

• Pivotal Tracker

• Confluence

We work asynchronously to ensure we work effectively as a distributed team: on any given day we may have our team in the office, working remotely, working from home or travelling for work. We strive to ensure everybody can provide their input no matter where they are
