Come help us create the future of Hachi!

WE:

• at https://www.leadcandy.io – are solving the problem of how people find and reach out to each other – a google map for people and relationships.
• Use PHP, MySQL, Neo4j, Sphinx, AWS, Git
• Are seeing excellent user-traction
• Have 41M+ people on Hachi. And their Billion+ relationships.
• Featured by MIT Tech Review, Techcrunch, Business Insider, and others
• Recipient of California Excellence Award 2013 (for software), Nominee World Technology Award 2012 (presented in association w/ TIME, CNN, Fortune, Technology Review, Science & Kurzweil AI; co nominees – Instagram, Pinterest)
• Have tons of data-engineering and data-science problems for you to solve.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING TO DO –

• We have some technical debt that we accumulated – blame it on inexperience, hurry to keep up with user-growth, adding more features, etc. Now we want to fix things and put a rock solid platform for future growth.
• Oh, and we cannot stop scaling, so we need to re-architect things while meeting demand-growth.
• And we also need to add new features, to keep our competitive edge.

YOU:

• Cringe when you look at bad code and bad practices. But instead of complaining, you set things right, even educate others
• Are a really strong developer, with 4-6 years of experience (2-3 years of PHP experience highly preferred)
• Have experience with database / query tuning and performance.
• Polyglots get bonus points. Experience across different types of languages gets mega-bonus points. Open source contributors get a red-carpet welcome to the interview.
• Have experience working with a legacy system and then incrementally re-architecting things, adding tests, etc.
• Are disciplined about unit testing, continuous-integration and other good habits (honestly, we are not yet there and we’d like your help)
• Are a good communicator.
• Believe in data-driven decisions.
