Who We Are Looking For:

Jirafe has seen exceptional growth the past year and we are looking for a senior backend engineer to join our engineering team. The right candidate will be an analytical and articulate individual who is a highly skilled software engineer, with total understanding of the methodology of delivering products in a real time, big data environment.

We’re looking for someone who loves what they do. You can demonstrate clear mastery of one (or several) languages. You’ll work in a busy environment, helping both the product and engineering teams conceptualize and deliver on design specifications. If you enjoy being a member of an engineering team that solves complex and meaningful problems, and more importantly building a product that matters to customers, we definitely want to talk to you. Each member of our team is given lots of responsibility, lots of freedom and hard problems to solve.

• Proactively offer options for features/improvements, and recognize potential growth bottlenecks before they become issues.

• Evaluate and select appropriate technologies, and be happy to defend those decisions.
