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.

Frontend\n\nFleet’s frontend is a single page application (SPA) written in JavaScript with React and Redux. We strive for “convention over configuration”, offering a user experience that helps security and IT staff enjoy their jobs.

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
