For me, the paid work day was 8 hours in a Slack chat asking a lot of questions of 1-2 employees. My task was to get familiar with their existing systems by querying these employees. I was asked to prepare a report about what I found.

The guys seemed busy so for a lot of the day I was on my own, waiting for more information.

It was intense, but by the end of the day I had a pretty good sense of the internals. I think it was a good test overall.

Love Golang, Docker and distributed systems?

What would data analytics infrastructure (namely Hadoop) look like if we rebuilt it from scratch today? We think it would be containerized, modular, and easy enough for a single person to use while still being scalable enough for a whole company. Tools like Docker and Kubernetes provide the perfect building blocks for us revolutionize data infrastructure!

Pachyderm is just 4 people right now, so you'd be getting in right at the ground floor and have an enormous impact on the success and direction of the company as well as building the rest of the engineering team.

Salaries start at $100k and go up from there based on experience. We also offer significant equity, full benefits, and all the usual startup perks. This position is based in SF.

Positions:

* Core distributed systems/infrastructure engineer

* Front-end UI/UX -- Own the entire front-end, admin dashboard, and user interface for Pachyderm!

Our hiring process:

* The entire process is focused around strong communication skills and simulating our actual work environment, not BS coding questions.

* Step 1: Friendly chat with founder to get to know each other

* Step 2: Technical phone screen

* Step 3: Take home problem -- because live coding is no fun for anyone. :)

* Step 4: Onsite

We're a small startup so our entire process can be less than 2 weeks start to finish or whatever you prefer.

Onfleet, San Francisco, On-site, Lead Mobile Engineer

We’re looking for a top-notch lead mobile engineer to take our iOS and Android apps to the next level. Substantial experience (2+ years) with both iOS and Android is a must. A deep understanding of mission-critical, location-based applications (especially the challenges around global use) is a huge plus.

We're building a modular platform that solves the hard technical problems around fleets of mobile workforces (e.g. route optimization, simplified dispatch UX/UI, real-time location tracking, driver mobile apps for multiple platforms). We provide an end-to-end solution for assigning work, tracking drivers and driver performance, and providing a delightful end-user experience with automatic SMS updates including accurate ETAs and a map to track deliveries en route. Onfleet powers hundreds of thousands of deliveries every month, for hundreds of businesses around the world.

Our backend is built using the latest technologies, including Node.js, Redis, Postgres, MongoDB, and WebSockets. Our product is mission-critical, so reliability and stability are essential. Our mobile apps use the latest frameworks and must be extremely robust in all types of device and connectivity situations. Our customers’ drivers see our apps as their most essential work tool and spend much of their day interacting with them.

As our third engineering hire, and only dedicated mobile engineer, you will work very closely with our product-focused founding team to bring a perfect delivery management experience to SMBs and other delivery-centric tech companies, enabling them to scale their businesses and delight their customers.
