Dropbox builds what is (by some measure) one of the largest distributed systems on the planet -- hundreds of millions of devices syncing amidst each other, pushing around both data and metadata at a scale that only a handful of companies across the world could muster.

We're hiring for pretty much any role you could imagine, but I'll give a particular plug for the team I lead here: Sync Platform. Sync Platform houses all of the core sync logic that makes Dropbox tick, from the core sync engine itself to the metadata stores on the back-end and the sync protocol we speak between them. We're rebuilding significant pieces of our entire stack in preparation for the next ten years (as we've already been around for ten). These are some of the biggest changes to sync since the company was founded.

We're looking for motivated senior-level engineers. We write mostly in Rust, Go and Python. We do a lot of distributed systems work, so expertise there is a bonus but by no means a requirement. Keeping our user's data safe and consistent is sacrosanct so most important is a strong attention to detail to ensure that we do right by our users. Equally important is an ability to work constructively in an diverse, equitable and inclusive environment.

Y'all can email me directly at lus@karat.io - I'm an engineering manager who discovered interviewing at Karat through a Who's Hiring post last year. I love working here and am happy to chat!

We're essentially looking for folks who are technical (eg, you'll have to read a wide variety of code and identify bugs and complexity) and social (eg, you'll have to host interview conversations and be warm and encouraging).

We do 1-on-1 technical interviews online. You can set your own schedule and work from home.

From the Job Posting:

Interviewing is broken. Karat professionalizes interviewing.

Hiring top talent is a critical activity for all companies, yet the way organizations interview candidates is broken. Interviewing is a time consuming process that is rarely data-driven. Here at Karat, we see a massive opportunity to transform the interviewing experience for every candidate and company.

Karat is on a mission to assess the world's talent. We are the first dedicated marketplace for technical interviewers. Karat's network of seasoned engineers conduct the first rounds of technical interviews for elite engineering companies. Our robust platform saves teams thousands of valuable hours while allowing them to focus on the top performing candidates. Karat's unique approach recognizes that people are central to the hiring process and that they can be supercharged by leveraging machine learning and our rich database of the world's interviews.

We face incredible demand for our service and are delivering significant value to elite engineering companies like Interana, BuildZoom and Minted. We are funded by top VCs including Formation8 and Founder Collective, plus the founders of companies like Glassdoor, Mulesoft, Lookout, OPOWER, MediaLink and CAA. Karat is headquartered in the University District of Seattle, WA.

Join our elite community of Expert Interviewers.
