Software Engineer, Web (Full stack)

<p style="min-height:1.5em">We are looking for someone to join us as an early member of the Web team, to build and own web platforms that turn large amounts of data into products people love to use. Maps and location data sit at the core of what we build, and we’re looking for an engineer who can take a platform from data model to pixel.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">In the initial months, you’ll work closely with the team, gradually taking ownership of central systems and features. Given our stage, we’re seeking versatile engineers comfortable contributing across the frontend, the backend and the data.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em">We value team members who delve deep into their respective domains, aiming to cultivate a team of subject matter experts with a high sense of ownership. This commitment to expertise is an expectation for every team member.<br /><br /></p><h1><strong>As a Web Engineer, your day-to-day will include:</strong><br /></h1><h2><strong>Platform Engineering</strong></h2><p style="min-height:1.5em">Designing and building robust, scalable web platforms end-to-end in TypeScript: APIs, services, data access layers and the UI on top of them. You’ll make the architectural decisions and set the patterns that others build on.<br /></p><h2><strong>Workflows &amp; Data Pipelines</strong></h2><p style="min-height:1.5em">Architecting durable, long-running workflows and background processes on our workflow orchestration system (Restate). You’ll also build the pipelines that move data between our warehouse, our databases and our products, reliably and at scale.<br /></p><h2><strong>Data Modeling &amp; Visualization</strong></h2><p style="min-height:1.5em">Modeling large datasets so they can be queried and visualized fast. That includes choosing the right aggregations, pre-computations and storage across Postgres and BigQuery, and turning them into visualizations that are clear, interactive and beautiful. You’ll handle data with privacy in mind from the very first design decision.<br /></p><h2><strong>Maps &amp; Geospatial Data</strong></h2><p style="min-height:1.5em">Bringing geospatial data to life on the web. You’ll render large amounts of location data on interactive maps, and keep them as fast and polished as they are insightful.<br /></p><h2><strong>Roadmap Creation and Ideation</strong></h2><p style="min-height:1.5em">Contributing actively to the roadmap: identifying the right tradeoffs and bringing ideas from both a product and an engineering perspective.</p><p style="min-height:1.5em"></p><h2><strong>Owning your scope</strong></h2><p style="min-height:1.5em">You’ll be responsible for the architecture, performance, monitoring and reliability of everything you ship. We value engineers who take full ownership of their scope, and who proactively address issues before anyone asks.<br /></p><p style="min-height:1.5em"><br /></p><h1><strong>Your Skills &amp; Experience:</strong></h1><p style="min-height:1.5em">Please indicate your years of experience on the application form.</p><ul style="min-height:1.5em"><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">7+ years of professional experience building SaaS products or data-heavy platforms.</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">High proficiency in TypeScript and Node.js, and in modern web frameworks (React, Next.js…).</p></li><li><p style="min-height:1.5em">Strong ex
