Code Climate empowers software engineering organizations to achieve excellence across people, process, and code with data-driven insights. Our Engineering intelligence products are trusted by thousands of organizations- from enterprises to startups - helping align engineering initiatives with strategic priorities, accelerate software delivery, and drive continuous improvement.

Code Climate is based in New York and was founded in 2011, by engineering leaders who were frustrated by decisions being made in the dark or by gut instinct. Code Climate envisions a world where technology leaders can drive business success through increased transparency, efficiency, and actionable data. Since the launch of our company, our automated code review tool, Quality, has helped over 100,000 developers improve their code bases. After nearly a decade, we launched our flagship product, Velocity. Velocity enables technology leaders to make confident, data-driven decisions that fuel elite team performances at scale. 

The engineering team at Code Climate is responsible for the entirety of our customer-facing experience as well as maintaining our platform which processes about two billion lines of source code every weekday, across a growing list of programming languages (including JavaScript, Ruby, Go and Python). We prefer a small and highly effective engineering team, so every new team member is vital to the success of the company. 

We're looking for collaborative, detail-oriented people who are ready for a challenge. In this role, you'll have the opportunity to take significant ownership of technical projects that will drive the success of the overall business. Successful team members bring strong product and technical acumen, combined with the ability to move fast (and fix things) as we continue to grow.

Examples of Problems You’ll Be Solving: 

• Improving user experiences that software engineers and engineering teams depend on during their day-to-day workflow.
• Leading architecture discussions during feature development to ensure that projects are built in a sound, reliable, performant way.
• Mentoring other engineers on best practices for software engineering.
• Optimizing the performance of components for both latency and throughput.
• Monitoring all of the above in a scalable way (We all do ops, so we depend on automation).
• Guiding incident response and vulnerability remediation efforts.
• Contributing to and collaborating on open source software.

You’re Awesome Because: 

• You have experience with data pipelines, distributed systems, and/or large-scale data processing.
• You are comfortable leading architecture planning and discussing trade-offs between engineering and business goals.
• You have 10+ years of software engineering experience and are comfortable writing code in Ruby as well as at least one statically-typed language like Java or Go. 
• You care about building maintainable, efficient, clean code.
• You'll enjoy this role if you care about working in and fostering a positive and collaborative environment.
• You love helping other developers work more effectively and have Open Source contributions that show it.
• You are able to take responsibility for projects end-to-end from idea to completion. Other people at the companies you worked for wanted you on their projects.
• You want to have an impact on the software engineering community.
• You enjoy being with peers who strive for engineering excellence. 
• You always want to learn more and constantly improve as an engineer.

Desired Qualifications: 

• Fluent in UML.
• 5+ years of Ruby on Rails experience.
• 5+ years of ReactJS experience.
• Fluent with Docker.
• Fluent with Terraform.
• Experience with scaling an HA application.
