• Experiment with new tech to find the right tool for the job
• Use Kanban to manage multiple releases per week

Here are a few indicators that you're the right person

• You enjoy a fun, creative, and engaging working atmosphere free of brilliant jerks
• You want to be part of a small team inside a large company with massive opportunity for growth
• You enjoy collaboration with other teams including product, biz dev, and our in-house QA team
• You eagerly dig into complex engineering problems

Preferred skills and experiences

• 2+ years of relevant work experience
