Thanx | SF, DEN, Remote | Principal Engineer | ONSITE/REMOTE, Full-time | https://www.thanx.com/careers/job/1466586/

Americans spend more than $5 trillion on restaurants, retail, and services each year. Nearly 90% of those transactions happen in a physical store. Data is king. Online it powers personalized customer experiences and product recommendations. Offline, however, it’s still 1999. Brands are blind to their customers, causing them to spend more and more money on “megaphone” marketing. No wonder brick-and-mortar stores are being left behind.

In a nutshell, Thanx ingests data, provides insights, enables actions to drive growth in the business. Thanx is backed by some of the best investors in the world — Sequoia Capital, Icon Ventures, and Andy Rachleff (CEO Wealthfront, cofounder Benchmark Capital), to name a few. Thanx Engineering Yes, we have an app you can download. The power of Thanx is massively scalable data pipelines, microservices that power four 9s uptime, intelligent purchase normalization, and matching algorithms — we don’t show that stuff off publicly.

Here’s more on who we are:

• Team: early engineers at AWS, Cloudera, Climate, Zenefits, Okta. Experience from startups and successful product companies like Google, Facebook, Intuit, Disney. This is an elite Eng team, period.

• Growth: 10x YOY data growth; $100M+ delivered to merchants; 200% team growth; modern, rapidly-evolving platform.

• Tech: scalable, reliable, high-throughput, low-latency backend systems; beautiful, performant, responsive UIs; user-friendly mobile apps.

• Culture: data-driven decision-making, risk-taking, no hierarchy, collaboration & shared responsibility, testing, and continuous improvement. As a remote-friendly team, we have flexible work hours.

ECOMM Company | Remote OK (CONUS and related Timezones) | Full-Time or Part-Time

Are you experienced with DevOps and working in AWS production environments? If you are, we'd love to hear how you can help us.

We're a retail company that's seeking DevOps expertise to help stabilize an older production environment based in AWS.

If you're a fit, you should (more or less) have something approximating these skills:

- Automation Expertise (Puppet, Chef, Ansible, or your preference. If it works, we're open to it.)

- CI/CD Expertise - We're running on a mix of 'git pull' and Capistrano. There are opportunities to modernize this a bit. We'd love the help.

- Rails Experience - Our platform runs on Rails. You should have Rails experience and be able to have an intelligent conversation about Rails.

- containers/kubernetes?- We're curious if our business would be a fit for a straight-up kubernetes migration. If you can help us assess if that migration makes sense, define a plan, and implement it, you're looking at an easy second project.

If this sounds like something you'd be able to help with, then send an email to me (Jack) at jahodges419 - at - gmail.com and tell me:

- Why you think you'd be a good fit to help us

- A project you worked on that showcases your Automation Expertise (just a few sentences)

- Your experience assessing kubernetes migrations (just a few sentences)

Please email to me, Jack, at jahodges419 - at - gmail.com. (Spam replies and copy/pasted replies that don't mention me, Jack, by name will be deleted.)
