**Company Description**\n\nShopifyโs mission is to make commerce better for everyone. From building a new product feature for our commerce platform, to helping a merchant troubleshoot an issue over the phone, we want to empower our ecosystem through our work.\n\nHaving a unified vision, a north star, is vitally important to ensure that we are all headed in the same direction. No matter the size or experience, we want to power every merchantโs experience. This is why we're all here.\n\nShopify is now permanently remote and we're working towards a future that is digital by default. That location you see above? Consider it merely an example of hundreds of potential locations across North America where Shopify is hiring. Learn more here: https://www.shopify.com/careers/work-anywhere\n\n**Job Description**\n\nAt Shopify, **Senior Lead Engineers** (also referred to as Senior Staff Engineers) use their expertise and passion to multiply the overall output of their development team. As a senior technical leader, youโll help drive the product vision to its implementation. You and the team will design and build technically innovative solutions that empower all teams at Shopify to build powerful and resilient distributed cloud software. Merchants that depend on Shopify for a highly scalable, performant, and reliable platform benefit directly from the work you do. You will maintain a high bar for quality and lead and mentor other engineers. And of course, youโll be hands-on in the code and contribute technically. Here are just some of the stories from the teams who build and scale Shopify.\n\nIntrigued? Weโre recruiting Senior Lead Software Engineers to join teams in any one of these disciplines. Based on your experience and interests, let us know which one you identify with most in your application!โจโจ\n\n**Back End Development**\n\nBack End Engineers with a passion for solving tough problems with performant code work on teams that ship on quality instead of on time. Our teams deploy new code many times a day, and our production scale is massive. Weโre talking over 1 million online stores, and hundreds of millions of requests a day. Thousands of entrepreneurs will see your work within seconds โ a difficult but incredibly rewarding responsibility. Shopify is the largest Ruby on Rails application in the world and we're a big part of the Rails community. Weโre constantly improving our codebase to make it even better.\n\n**Mobile Development (React Native, Android & iOS)**\n\nOur Mobile Engineers work along with designers and product managers to build and launch new features for our apps. Youโll work on large-scale apps that are ever-changing, enabling entrepreneurship for hundreds of thousands of entrepreneurs. Our Android engineers use Kotlin and our iOS engineers use Swift. Our teams are increasingly working with React Native so openness to cross-platform mobile development is a plus! \n\n**Front End Development**\n\nOur Front End Engineers collaborate closely with software engineering teams, designers, product managers, and marketers to not only build incredible merchant-facing products and marketing campaigns, but also engineer-facing tools. Youโll use the latest web standards in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and modern technologies and frameworks like Typescript, React, GraphQL, Apollo and Ruby on Rails, to develop large front-end web applications and websites that scale and perform well on all devices. Youโll work across disciplines and are excited about building human-centered experiences. Front End Development exists across all of Shopify, from Product to Marketing, working closely with the teams that create performant experiences and communicate Shopifyโs impact on commerce to a global audience. You may also collaborate with our Data and SEO teams, helping us make data informed decisions and driving additional new merchant acquisition. You might focus on creating thoughtful interfaces for our users, shaping our design language, and contributing to our shared component libraries in a maintainable and scalable way.\n\n**Qualifications\nWhat youโll do as a Senior Lead Engineer at Shopify:**\n\n* Learn and grow constantly to feed your passion for self-improvement and make those around you better\n* Design and build highly available, resilient and scalable platform primitives & API\n* Work through problems with your team, roll up your sleeves, form an opinion and advocate for engineering-specific roadmap items\n* Collaborate with other Shopify leaders, executives and external partners to provide the best commerce experience for our merchants\n \n\n**Experience and skills that are important for success in this role:**\n\n* A proven track record of strong technical mentorship\n* Experience building large scale, high throughput distributed systems and scaling web services, particularly those using and analyzing large amounts of data\n* High level of fluency with and experience using technologies and frameworks like (but not limited to) some of our most-used languages - Ruby on Rails, GraphQL, Java/JEE, Node.js, PHP, Python, React or React Native, Golang, Kubernetes - or deep experience with any object-oriented language and relevant transferrable technologies\n* A passion for efficiency and collaboration, with a history of establishing great relationships with UX and Product Management teams across time zones\n* A commitment and drive for quality, technical excellence and results\n* Curiosity and passion to constantly learn new things; Shopify changes fast, and we need the people who work here to be able to change and learn fast too\n* Proficiency in systems thinking and systems design concepts like transactions, atomicity, idempotency, etc.\n* Raise the quality and speed (team efficiency) bar and move the platform into a position of maximum leverage\n* Use the right tool for the job, fix problems are the right level of abstraction and optimize to meet both functional and non-functional goals\n\n**Additional information**\n\nWe know that looking for a new role can be both exciting and time-consuming, and we truly appreciate your effort. Jane is an actual real live person (๐๐ป) and is looking forward to learning more about you through your application.

Aha! Engineering is a mid-sized, fully remote team. We are centered around North American time zones so that we can collaborate during the workday.\n\n**Our core values include:**\n\n* [The Responsive Method](https://www.aha.io/company/the-responsive-method)\n* Moving quickly. We ship code multiple times a day. We believe in getting new features in front of customers and iteratively improving as we learn what works and what doesnโt.\n* Product over process. We want our engineers to have the time and focus to solve deep and sometimes-difficult problems, so we aim to minimize the overhead introduced by heavyweight processes or excessive meetings.\n* Collaboration. We each bring unique experiences and skills to the table. Working together to share that knowledge benefits the entire team and helps us to produce the best results for our customers.\n\n**Who are we looking for**\n\nWe donโt believe that there is any tension between writing great code and being a kind person who elevates the rest of the team. We look for strong problem-solving skills and experience working on important functionality for a cloud-based product -- and just as importantly, we look for people who are humble, eager to learn, and always willing to help others learn as well. We want to work with people who enjoy picking up a problem and solving it, regardless of the technologies and techniques involved.\n\nAll of our engineers work across the full stack. As a Senior Front End Engineer, you can expect to spend the majority of your time working with React or HTML/CSS, but you will also be asked to write significant backend code in Ruby on Rails to support the frontend features you are building.\n\n**Technology**\n\nOur sole product is the Aha! web application. It is a single-instance, multi-tenant Ruby on Rails monolith supported by Postgres (database), Redis (background jobs), and memcached (Rails caching). We also run a Node.js web server to support collaborative editing and real-time updates. Our application is hosted on Amazon Web Services and architected with ECS for reproducibility and scalability.\n\nWe use React for rich client-side experiences on the frontend. Some of the features weโve built with React include:\n\nOur fully collaborative text editor, which supports multiple cursors and simultaneous editing by any number of users. We also published a blog post explaining the underlying technology.\nOur presentation editor, which allows users to create presentations with slide themes, shapes, text, and embedded Aha! reports (which update live so the presentation is always up-to-date).\nOur Gantt chart, which supports scaling and scrolling to change the timeline, drag-and-drop, and quick actions to create records or sort the bars.\n\nWe embrace new technologies that help us deliver a great product, but we also remain cognizant of the maintenance overhead that a new library or platform brings. We seek to solve the problems in front of us, rather than prematurely optimizing to address issues that may never materialize.\n\nWe do most of our collaboration and planning in Aha! itself, which we find especially rewarding. We also utilize GitHub, Slack, and GoToMeeting for video calls.\n\n**What youโll be doing**\n\nWe work on a broad range of features across the full stack. Some of your work might include:\n\n* Implementing new features for our users, touching each layer of the MVC as needed\n* Building deeply interactive reporting interfaces using React\n* Working proactively with product and UX to refine and iterate on specifications as the feature takes shape\n* Optimizing browser performance on screens and components that render large quantities of data to ensure Aha! is snappy and satisfying to use\n* Interfacing directly with customers to quickly squash bugs as part of our regular support rotation\n* Documenting components in our styleguide to help drive consistency across the interface\n\n*If this sounds appealing, we would love to hear from you and discuss further. A real human reviews every application, so please use the form to help us learn more about you.* \n\nPlease mention the words **INNOCENT ESTATE CLIMB** when applying to show you read the job post completely (#RMjE2LjczLjIxNi4xNDM=).
