Let’s dive right in with the qualities we are looking for in you as a Software Engineer
Above all, you are passionate about development
You are curious and creative
You are tuned in to new trends and technologies
You are passionate about Python, PHP, and JavaScript and you are proud of the code you write
You create opportunities because that’s what we need
You like racking your brain and coming up with the simplest and most viable solution with your team
You understand the theoretical side to Scrum/Agile, but you also know how to effectively and smoothly put it into practice while keeping it fun
You like working in a team and receiving, as well as giving your teammates, relevant and constructive comments
In concrete terms, your daily responsibilities will be:
Writing(duh!)testable(oh) code that your teammates will enjoy improving with you
Participating in all activities of our Scrum process: daily scrum, planning, sprint commitment, task breakdown, backlog grooming, as well as peer-review, pair programming, testing and review (everything is more fun in a team)
Deploying your code and that of your teammates in a pre-production environment (for starters), then to production. Then savor the reward of a job well done.
Testing, testing, and testing again, then automating your tests in order to present the best code to your team because, as Yoda would say, “effort and discipline, sources of pride they are.”
Estimating the efforts for each story with your team (it has been kind of proven that estimates cannot be done by consulting an astrological chart)
Communicating your progress and obstacles to your team and your ScrumMaster, by smoke signals, if you have to
Demonstrating and assisting in demonstrating your teams’ successes to clients or their representatives : nothing better than showing off when we’re extraordinary
At Internap we are not like the rest and we understand that the IaaS industry is evolving rapidly, which is why we have created an agile culture.Routine? We don’t even know the meaning of the word. Status quo? You can’t connect a router to it, so we avoid it. Hierarchy? The less there is, the better we feel. But we don’t like chaos either, so we find a balance between the two. Bureaucracy? We are here to exceed and face challenges, and we don’t have time for filling out forms. In a nutshell, we want to keep our startup culture, but we also face certain realities of a large company. Sometimes this means dealing with additional constraints, at other times, satisfying our ambitions.
At Internap, we offer you a team, a community, and an open-area workspace, not to mention 100GB of RAM per developer. Yep, we have the essential resources: it’s our job!
On top of that, we have no idea what to do with our blank walls. So, we welcome your decoration ideas, like all your other ideas.
Here’s what we are offering you:
Open work environment, not only in terms of the physical layout, but also the culture.
Very experienced team, ready to challenge and be challenged. A perfect ecosystem to continue learning, even if you are experienced. Automation like you’ve never seen!
Latitude in decision making and creativity, as long as your idea holds up, of course
Each employee is a key member in creating the IaaS of tomorrow on OpenStack, THE standard of future Cloud and Web infrastructures
An environment that awakens the spirit: each person has their say and adds to the collective knowledge
Fun at work, doesn’t it show?
Work, family, and personal life balance: we give talent the room to grow
Visits to Montreal, because our teams are a mix of New York and Montreal, so sometimes we travel (But who doesn’t like poutine?)
