Remote Backend + CSS + Operations + React + System Jobs

**OVERVIEW**\n\nWe're looking for Security Engineers to join our Engineering team. In this role, you will build innovative payments products that delight both engineering and finance teams. As an early member of the engineering team, you will help shape the engineering culture of a fast-growing startup.\n\nThe core platform at Modern Treasury sits between our customers and their banks. In the same way that Twilio abstracted away the complexity of working with communication networks, we have built an easy-to-use, common interface into the banking system. Our customers use our products to do things like move money to or from their users, automate back-office work, and record their transaction ledgers. The companies that can use Modern Treasury move over $750 trillion a year via bank payments, as compared to only $2 trillion per year on card payments.\n\nOur API is often the most critical piece of infrastructure that our customers use. We place a premium on building robust, scalable systems that can sustain a high volume of API calls and exceed the reliability requirements to move money at scale. We complement this with well-thought out interfaces for our users and pride in writing quality API docs.\n\nWe believe in using the best tool for the job, rather than always using open source or building things ourselves. We actively embrace open source in parts of our system but aren't afraid to roll our own solution for things like writing and parsing bank files. We also contribute to open source (for example, https://www.moderntreasury.com/journal/continuous-accounting-building-on-an-open-source-library).\n\nIn addition to our API, we have had a web platform since day 1 that is used by accountants, controllers, and engineers. They use our platform to do things like manage payment workflows and monitor their business. As an engineer, you will work with our product team to build products and features for these users.\n\n**ABOUT MODERN TREASURY**\n\nModern Treasury is payment operations software for businesses with a high volume of transactions or complex payment flows. Modern Treasury automates the full cycle of money movement — from payment initiation, through approvals, to reconciliation.\n\nOur mission is to transform the way businesses move and track money, driving toward a world where payments are real-time, reconciliation is instant, and accounting is continuous.\n\n**WEEK BY WEEK**\n\nDuring your first week you will:\n* Get to know our leadership, culture, and values\n* Onboard with the engineering team\n* Ship your first commit on day 1\n* Take on 1-2 small tickets to address bugs or make minor improvements\n* Read our favorite industry primers\n\nDuring your first six weeks you will:\n* Ship your first major project\n* Write your first blog post.

\nLet's start with why we exist.\n\nFleet builds open source software to manage and secure computing infrastructure: employee laptops, cloud servers, and more. Our technology helps IT and security teams build trust within their organization, while getting their jobs done more effectively.\n\nFleet is an all-remote company with experienced founders, including two creators of popular open source projects and a compelling lead investor. Our business model is inspired by the success of GitLab and Elastic, and we have incredible early customers ranging from startups to Fortune 500 companies with hundreds of thousands of endpoints.\n\n\nWhat happens when you join us?\n\n\n* As the first senior engineering hire, this position offers huge potential for growth.\n\n* You will write significant open source code, merging commits in your first days at the company.\n\n* You will work closely with the CTO and CEO to define technical and product vision.\n\n* Over time, you will establish yourself as a leader in Fleet's growing team and user community, whether through management or expert-level individual contributions.\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy should you join us?\n\n\n* Work from anywhere with good internet. (We're 100% remote. No office. No commute.)\n\n* Help make endpoint monitoring less intrusive and more transparent.\n\n* Safeguard the production servers and employee laptops of Earth's largest companies.\n\n* Build greenfield features and make key technical decisions that go live in days.\n\n* Most (if not all) of the code you write is public and highly visible at github.com/fleetdm/fleet.\n\n\n\n\n\nAre you our new teammate?\n\n\n* You are competent with source control in Git. You have great written communication skills.\n\n* You can mentor other developers and do code reviews.

Backend\n\nFleet’s server is written in Go with go-kit. Deployments range from single servers to over 100,000 clients connected to horizontally scaled Fleet servers, handling tens of thousands of requests per minute. We aim to keep Fleet’s deployment as simple as possible to ease self-hosted deployment. MySQL and Redis are used for persistence and caching.\n\n\n* Experience building scalable, production quality servers.\n\n* Ability to recommend and implement backend testing patterns (E2E tests, etc.)\n\n* Familiarity with server and SQL performance profiling and optimization.\n\n* Familiarity with database migration strategies.\n\n* Nice to have: Experience programming with Go and go-kit.\n\n* Nice to have: Experience with Redis and/or MySQL.\n\n* Nice to have: Experience deploying and operating hosted SaaS services.\n\n* Nice to have: Experience working with Mobile Device Management (MDM) APIs.\n\n* Nice to have: Experience deploying/monitoring/managing containers with Docker/K8s\n\n\n\n\nIII. Endpoints\n\nFleet builds on top of the osquery agent (osquery.io), a Linux Foundation OSS project. Our CTO co-created osquery and serves on the Technical Steering Committee. On the endpoint we are building Orbit, a wrapper for osquery that will also become our platform for deploying additional open-source software such as Fleet Desktop (an interface for device users to interact with Fleet).\n\n\n* Experience developing applications on macOS, Linux, and/or Windows.\n\n* Familiarity with packaging tools: macOS .pkg, Linux .deb, Linux .rpm, Windows .msi, etc.\n\n* Familiarity with service persistence: macOS launchd, Linux systemd, Windows Services, etc.\n\n* Experience with building cross-platform user interfaces.\n\n* Experience managing and debugging performance of software installed on endpoints.\n\n* Readiness to write code that will directly impact performance for hundreds of thousands of people.\n\n* Nice to have: Go (for Orbit) and C++ (for osquery) programming experience.\n\n* Nice to have: Experience building and securing update systems for endpoint software.\n\n* Nice to have: Experience with low-level system APIs in macOS, Linux, and/or Windows.\n\n\n\n\nPlease include a few sentences about your experience with the Engineering Foundations in the "Experience" box of the application. \n\n#Salary and compensation\n No salary data published by company so we estimated salary based on similar jobs related to Engineer, Developer, Digital Nomad, React, JavaScript, Cloud, CSS, Mobile, Senior, Junior, SaaS, Linux and Backend jobs that are similar:\n\n $70,000 — $120,000/year\n
