KickBack Rewards Systems, Remote (Idaho)

  KickBack Rewards Systems
  http://www.kickbacksystems.com
  http://careers.kickbacksystems.com
KickBack Rewards Systems is a privately held company founded in 1999 that specializes in customer specific marketing and payments for over 1000 US clients. Our clients include a half-dozen Fortune 50 companies, one of them is an anchor partner in our national coalition loyalty program. As the CTO and Director of Software Development I need some help! You will be joining a medium sized team of 13 developers who all commit to their projects as a labor of love and their lives work. If you are interested in any of these positions my contact information is located under my profile.

-

Front-end engineer

Our front-end tools are all built in AngularJS with a half dozen other JavaScript libraries like D3. We have some interesting UI/UX challenges in graphing metrics and representing data that our current front-end team describe as nothing less than "the most exciting and challenging work they've had for awhile." You're supported by an incredible UX team to perform the heavy lifting as far as design and deciding which A/B testing should occur.

-

Mobile Developer

KickBack uses Xamarin (C#) to build a native and compiled mobile application for iOS and Android. We have an amazing contractor building our app who is acting as the lead, architect and senior engineer. You'll be working with the best. We're looking to add a little redundancy and augment the team with additional resources if we can.

-

Security engineer

Last but not least, I am looking for an Information Systems Security expert. KRS works in a live transaction processing environment and identifying fraud, patterns and preventing information breaches and transaction fraud is second nature to the right candidate. I'm looking for that type-a engineer who cannot sleep if he or she believes an attack vector exist. He or she has an extreme sense of responsibility and can execute on delivering best-practice prevention methods. This role is both advisory ("Team, implement this best practice") and execution ("Team, I implemented this best practice..") We're lean and mean so you should have no problem at all hacking on Ruby one day to deploy a new 'hids' through Chef or drafting a Cisco IOS access-list the next.

Smarkets, London, UK. Sorry, no remote.

We're always looking for generalist, python-happy software engineers. If you know, or want to learn erlang, even better.

Smarkets is a modern betting exchange with significantly lower transaction fees than the competition. We're a well-funded company with a small, agile development team, and our platform has handled over £600 million of bets since launching in 2010. Smarkets has been featured in publications such as Wired, The Wall Street Journal and TechCrunch and was recently selected as part of the Startups 100.

We are taking on the big players in the betting industry with the lean startup playbook. We think the commission charged by such players is too high, spelling for opportunity to do better.

We're building a reliable, low-latency, highly concurrent betting exchange based on trading exchange designs. We're also building a fast, modern web interface to allow for a smoother experience. Servicing our users is top priority. Whether you want to work on the trading exchange or the frontend, you'll be solving real and challenging problems - from scaling to optimising python to handling near real-time design constraints.

The Smarkets platform is written predominantly on Python and Erlang, and relies heavily on asynchronous programming techniques. We use REST where we can. Life at Smarkets circles around version control, configuration management and automated testing. We can, and do, deploy to production several times a day.

Our software stack is built around Linux, Vagrant, Flask, Eventlet, Postgres, RabbitMQ, Git and Chef - but we are not resistant to change as needed.
