Remote Developer + Engineering + Front End + Full Stack + Node Jobs

At [Saga](https://saga.so), we are looking for multiple Full Stack Engineers to join our Engineering team. We are a small (but growing) remote company building a platform to connect knowledge and give teams contextual information at a glance.\n\nWhat makes Saga different is the ability to author content while having an overview of any piece of information that might be relevant to your current work.\n\n### What working for our Engineering Team will be:\n\n* We will explore two core directions in the next year: 1) make Saga the best tool for teams to collaborate on knowledge creation; 2) integrate Saga with external tools to allow teams to have an overview of their extended knowledge.\n* No stone left unturned: as we’re a small team collaborating on every issue, expect to touch every part of the product at some point, from frontend to backend to scaling our infrastructure. This doesn’t mean you need to know it all already. Every team member brings in their unique expertise, and we all learn from each other.\n* Collaboration over individual contribution. We collaborate most of the time over video. This means pair programming and deciding as a group how to move forward with any issue. Every two weeks, we decide together what to focus on, then we tackle those problems together to completion.\n* Flexible working hours. We strive to work together as much as possible to increase our collective throughput, but you will be able to set your own schedule and adjust your hours depending on your needs.\n* You will face hard technical challenges. We need to scale our product to digest information of ever-increasing orders of magnitude while keeping the user experience as simple as it can be.\n* Customer-facing, always. We have communities on Discord, Slack, and Reddit, you will be able to assess directly user feedback and iterate on it.\nOpen-source. We support and actively contribute to open source libraries that power Saga. You will have a chance to work on software that will be used by the open-source community at large.\n\n### What we’re looking for:\n\n* You have experience with (or interest in) React, Typescript, Node.js. Optionally, you have experience with GraphQL, Postgres, Firebase.\n* Bonus points if you have experience with one of: indexing and search engines; managing infrastructure at scale; CRDTs, and real-time collaboration libraries.\n* You know how to start a project from scratch. You have built an impressive side project, led a project in your day job or at school or you have been a founder before.\n* You think product-first. You want to create something used and loved by millions and are careful about shipping with customers in mind.\n* You can use your communication skills to make remote work a joy. You will seldomly see your colleagues in person, therefore communication is key. We document everything we do, and strive to have an open communication culture.\n\n### What we offer in return:\n\n- Generous compensation and employee-friendly equity options in Saga\n- 25 days paid vacation days on top of public holidays in your country\n- Flexible working hours\n- Home office equipment\n- Team retreats every few months in beautiful locations around the world (depending on Covid situation)\n\nPlease note that benefits may vary by country. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask us.\n\n### Diversity and inclusion:\n\nWe think diversity makes any company the best company it can be. We believe different backgrounds mean different points of view that can make us stronger and more robust as a company. We welcome people who are not afraid to challenge assumptions. We all live in different countries, speak different languages, have been or still are immigrants ourselves. We all had unorthodox careers, before starting Saga.\n\nNo matter where you come from or what your background is, we want to hear from you! \n\nIf you have any disability that might impact the interview process, please let us know if there’s any way we can make it better for you! \n\nPlease mention the words **STILL STICK DUTY** when applying to show you read the job post completely (#RMjE2LjczLjIxNi4xNDY=).

\nCompany Introduction\n\nHello! We are Biomage, a small startup deeply passionate about human health. We work in the area of single cell sequencing analysis - a new technology that has taken research biology by storm. Our mission is to build a world-class single cell analysis platform in the cloud to enable biologists to turn their datasets into meaningful biology and make discoveries.\n\nWe are working with some of the best research institutions: our biggest customers are Harvard Medical School, Glasgow Polyomics and Edinburgh Genomics who are also our early adopters. We currently have a waiting list of more customers eager to use the platform!\n\nThe project\n\nOur product is open source, you can check it out on Github! Currently, it consists of a React based UI, API written in Node.js and a backend written in Python that computes single cell analysis tasks. Everything is deployed via an automated CI/CD pipeline (Github Actions) to an AWS-managed Kubernetes cluster. \n\nThe platform is still in a very early development stage - there are many core features and infrastructure yet to be built. The engineering team consists of two full-time and a single part-time engineer. There is no division between backend, frontend or testing roles - each engineer contributes to any part of the codebase and is responsible for writing unit tests and completing new features according to the definition of done.\n\nWhat we offer\n\n\n* Opportunity to change the world by building tools to help the improvement of human health.\n\n* Opportunity to grow the startup with us into a successful company.\n\n* Competitive salary and shares package\n\n* Laptop and any other essential technical equipment.\n\n* Reading club - books to help with your professional development are on us to help with your personal development \n\n* Home cleaning - we will find somebody to take over some of those mundane tasks to help you focus on what matters most to you\n\n\n\n\nWhat you can expect\n\n\n* An agile, diverse and multidisciplinary team\n\n* A supportive, inclusive and transparent working environment where team mates learn from and help each other all the time.\n\n* A place to look at things differently, challenge and offer solutions.\n\n* You will be working in a (still) small startup where the whole company consists of ~10 people. You will have a unique opportunity to make a significant impact and actively drive change in the technology, direction and culture of the startup.\n\n* A fast-paced environment of continuous improvement where you optimise for impact and velocity.\n\n\n\n\nWhat we are looking for\n\nWe are looking for an experienced, talented software engineer to join the engineering team and help us build the first version of the single cell sequencing pipeline and onboard our increasing number of early adopters. No previous knowledge in biology or bioinformatics is required.\n\nThis position is for full time, 100% remote work, where the official time zone of the engineering team is the one in the UK (GMT, GMT + 1).\n\nWe would expect you to:\n\n\n* Always put the user first.\n\n* Be an active participant during technical decisions and discussions.\n\n* Be comfortable to work in a rapidly changing environment.\n\n* Be passionate and empathetic - you fall in love with problems, not solutions. You’re a doer, and a helper.\n\n* Take pride in your work.\n\n* Think like an owner.\n\n* Experiment, test, try, fail and learn continuously.\n\n* Have experience and desire to work as part of a close-knit team.\n\n\n\n\nQualifications\n\nFor this role, you must have:\n\n\n* Experience in working as part of a team to ship high-quality software using agile development processes.\n\n* Some experience and knowledge in web development and containerised applications.\n\n* Proficiency in at least one programming language, preferably Javascript or Python.\n\n\n\n\nHow to apply\n\nSend your CV to [email protected]. We will be in contact with you shortly! \n\n#Salary and compensation\n No salary data published by company so we estimated salary based on similar jobs related to Engineer, Full Stack, Developer, Digital Nomad, React, JavaScript, Cloud, Python, API, Medical and Backend jobs that are similar:\n\n $70,000 — $120,000/year\n
