Codility (https://codility.com/) | Warsaw, Poland | ONSITE | FULLTIME

We provide an online coding test engine for recruitment screening. Think programming contests/olympiads but much easier (or FizzBuzz but slightly harder). Some of our programming problems are also freely available for training (see https://codility.com/programmers).

We're a small company (about 10 programmers and 30 employees in total) with many ideas how to expand our product. For me, the most interesting part is that at our scale, any contribution you make is very visible, and that there are plenty of opportunities to try out something new. I have been working with Codility for 2.5 years now and it has been real fun to see the team grow, improve our skills and learn new things.

As for the technical details: we are built around Python, Django and Postgres (along with some low-level C, as well as Ruby in the infrastructure code). We practice code reviews, pair programming and continuous delivery.

We are currently looking for full-stack software engineers; as well as people with strong frontend experience. For details, see https://codility.com/jobs/, or just e-mail me at pawel@codility.com.

We need to make a globally distributed system, with a slow and broken network (Chinese factories -> US and back), fast, reliable, and easy for our customers to interact with. There are interesting opportunities in delay tolerant networking, machine learning, and good old building out an early product.

What we use:

  - Postgres
Our camera systems are deployed in Chinese factories and move huge volumes of data daily (images, video, and metadata) to the US quickly and reliably, where it is interpreted and displayed to hardware companies.

MarketInvoice is the VC-backed peer-to-peer fintech platform that’s building the modern backbone of the economy.

Imagine you’re a young company who’s just won a major contract but your client wants to pay you on 90 day terms when you need to pay your staff and suppliers upfront. That’s where we step in.
