Remote C + Java + Python + System Jobs

\nYour mission at SimScale is to continuously improve and extend the platform that serves our users. This means working on an increasingly complex service-oriented system, written mostly in Java (but including Go, Scala, and others), that handles large amounts of data and computation jobs while at the same time empowering a thriving community of users to collaborate and share simulation projects. Depending on skills and interests, you can work close to our application domain, engineering simulation, or on a more general SaaS development level.\n\nThe variety of tasks will allow you to implement your knowledge in new and interesting ways, including designing data models and APIs for a complex application domain, carving out new microservices from existing code and writing new services. Other tasks related to running a cloud-based service-oriented architecture will include dealing with consistency and message-based communication. \n\nAs we develop our own services, you will also be involved with infrastructure topics, such as configuration management, the integration of monitoring and collecting metrics. Closer to the application domain, you will be tasked with integrating or improving complex simulation- or other application-domain-software, making sure the user is presented with robust software that delivers results while being a joy to use.\n\nYou will play a decisive role in maintaining SimScale’s worldwide leadership in engineering simulation! Since we are still young in spirit, there are few boundaries - we do our best to involve everyone in where the company is going and why, and the evolving range of challenges we face. This can mean developers working together with product managers on specifications, but also learning about the challenges of other departments, such as Sales, and providing ideas and solutions to help them out.\n\nRequirements \n\nMinimum Qualifications \n\n\n* 8 years of professional experience in software development\n\n* 4 years of professional experience in JVM languages or Go\n\n* General knowledge of internals: Linux, JVM, network protocols (like HTTP), C programming\n\n* Strong ownership-attitude: you want to deliver and maintain solid parts of the product\n\n* Strong track record of complex projects accomplished\n\n* Data-driven mindset: you act on the insights from error- and usage-data\n\n* Hands-on experience with cloud providers (like Amazon Web Services, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform)\n\n* Team-oriented, flexible, and able to see the big picture - the success of the company is what ultimately counts\n\n* Excellent communication skills - written and verbal\n\n* Sensibility towards information security\n\n\n\n\nPreferred Qualifications\n\n\n* A course of studies in Computer Science with the focus on software engineering or a comparable training\n\n* Familiarity with Python and data science libraries (numpy, pandas, etc.)\n\n* Knowledge in distributed computing and microservices\n\n* Hands-on experience with Amazon Web Services\n\n* Active participation in open source projects\n\n\n\n\nWhat you can expect from us\n\n\n* An international and enthusiastic team with high technical expertise, dedication, and lots of fun\n\n* An attractive startup atmosphere with flat hierarchies\n\n* An independent, professional work environment\n\n* Fun team events\n\n* Ambitious, self-responsible tasks and projects that leave space for creativity and offer the chance to learn a lot in a short time\n\n* Flexible working hours\n\n* The chance to provide thousands of engineers with the next generation of simulation technology that helps them be better at what they do best: designing the products of tomorrow\n\n\n\n\nAdditional Information\n\nWould you like to work in an “engine room”, meaning working on the core of a cutting-edge distributed web application, chasing bugs or designing effective, efficient and elegant solutions?

\nMission\n\nPlatform.sh is a groundbreaking hosting and development tool for web applications. We’re a European VC-Backed startup with a host of blue-chip Enterprise clients and a string of awards and grants (including €2m from the EU Horizon 2020 program). To reinforce our technical prowess, we are looking to grow our engineering team. If you’re looking for an exciting, high-growth opportunity with an award-winning, cutting-edge company, this could be just the job for you.\n\nThe company is fully distributed and remote first, with a strong accent on diversity and inclusion in all of its dimensions (gender, sexual orientation, age, race, country of origin - you have it, we want it).\n\nFor its groundbreaking PaaS solution https://platform.sh is looking for a Pythonian Cloud Engineer with a taste for Go, good Linux system understanding, and a real hunger for the challenges of building robust, distributed systems.\n\nPlatform.sh is a PaaS shrouded in a lot of black magic (we can consistently clone a whole running cluster, with its state, databases, indexes in a matter of seconds). We want to get this down to the hundreds of milliseconds domain. Interested? There is more...\n\nOur external API is pure Hypermedia REST + oAuth on top of Pyramid. It mechanizes the Git layer and needs more features.\n\nWe can consistently generate from the same manifest a Docker container, an LXC one, or VM disk images (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, OpenStack), we want more targets.\n\nWe probably have the highest container density in the industry. We need to get it higher.\n\nWe support any Python, Ruby, NodeJS, PHP, Java and .NET time to roll-out Elixir, of course Elixir, and Rust.\n\nWe need to have more auto-healing on the high-availability clusters. We need more performance out of our multi-protocol ssh proxy. We need work on our Ceph Implementation; We need to get the Debian package generation streamlined and faster. We need… great ideas on how to make Platform.sh even better. Interested? Join us!\n\nThis is a remote position and occasional travel to cool places like Paris, France, may be required.\n\nSkills & requirements:\n\nRequired:\n\n\n* Be a really really good dev that likes testing, understands how an OS works, knows networking, how git works, and the constraints of a distributed system.\n\n* Be proficient in Python\n\n* Some familiarity with Go (or the willingness to learn) - hard core expertise here, also appreciated.\n\n\n\n\nWould be really great if you had:\n\n\n* Experience with C (we contribute to a bunch of upstream projects, like LXC) is a plus; Love not required.\n\n* Great knowledge of Git\n\n* Good Networking background (routing/protocols)\n\n* Good grasp of practical security and cryptography\n\n* Experience with other programming languages (Rust. Haskell anyone? Java, Javascript, Ruby, Common Lisp?, PHP? )\n\n* Good knowledge of how the Web works (Hacking Nginx with Lua a plus). You may want to brush up on HTTP before the interview.\n\n* Good understanding of how database systems and search engines work\n\n* A good notion on distributed systems (consensus protocols like Raft/Paxos, eventual consistency models, gossip protocols)\n\n* Mad Debian Skills. Sporting a Debian plaid cloth during the interview is not frowned upon.\n\n\n\n\nTo be clear so you are not surprised in the technical interview, this job is very much more for a systems engineer, rather than an application developer. So knowing about system calls is important, while knowing Django, not so much. \n\n#Salary and compensation\n No salary data published by company so we estimated salary based on similar jobs related to Cloud, Python, Golang, Engineer, Java, C, Haskell, Git, API, Travel, Nginx and Linux jobs that are similar:\n\n $70,000 — $120,000/year\n
