Coming Soon - Senior Backend Developer

Experience level: senior+

As we look forward in our 2024 road map we are posting some of our jobs that will be open to get a jumpstart on our hiring process.

ActiveState Platform - made by developers for developers We are reinventing build engineering with an on-demand SaaS Platform and CLI tool that lets developers automate the building of any runtime environment using any open source language ecosystem on any platform. We support Python, Perl, Tcl, and Ruby (Alpha) and we're hiring to add more languages and packages We’re building an ambitious language distribution platform so that no engineer ever has to suffer dependency hell again, and we need your help to do it

This position is open to full-time telecommuters anywhere in Canada or continental US time zones. You can also choose to work from our headquarters in beautiful Vancouver, BC.

What You’ll Be Doing

As a Senior Developer working on our platform, you will be helping us build a highly scalable, 100% automated build system for multiple languages across multiple platforms. We’re also creating microservice APIs for other teams to code against as we build our big new thing.

Our day to day work practices are centered around GitHub, pull requests, code review, CI/CD, automated testing, and agile development. We’re always looking to improve our practices and we expect you to help us to do so.

We’re a polyglot company building our system using Golang, Docker, Kubernetes, Mesos, CircleCI, Bazel, and other modern tools. Quality is as important as speed. We’re building for the long run, so you’ll need to enjoy writing tests and documentation too.

Our team is scattered around the US and Canada, so we coordinate with each other and the rest of the company using Slack for chat, Zoom for video calls and screen sharing, Jira, and Google Drive.

We like to use open source software whenever possible, and we also like to contribute back to the open source ecosystem. We embrace open sourcing both libraries and tools developed in-house as long as those are not mission-critical code.

What’s In It For You
  • Working for a stable and growing company that offers the environment and personal growth potential of a start-up as well as the stability of a business with established revenue.
  • The chance to work with a smart, enthusiastic team of people.
  • The chance to work on a project that will change the work lives of developers around the world, including your own
  • Competitive salary and bonus plan.
  • Comprehensive benefits package and health/wellness credit program.
Requirements
  • Experience creating and maintaining complex software systems along with the ability to design non-trivial applications and components from scratch.
  • The ability to write clean, well-tested code with clear documentation.
  • Deep experience with at least one programming language, and shallow experience with several.
  • Excellent writing and speaking skills.
  • A willingness to engage in the process of defining our work through conversations with product management, other engineering teams, and the rest of the company.
  • The capability to do research on solutions to new problems in response to project requirements, as well as research on new technologies.
  • The ability to help others on the team become better at their jobs through mentoring, thoughtful code reviews, and generally being a team player.
Assets

If you have experience with any of the following please make sure to highlight it in your cover letter:

  • Experience with SAT solvers, graph theory, and dependency resolution algorithms.
  • API design, especially with GraphQL.
  • Perl, Python, Tcl, Ruby, JavaScript, or Java experience, especially an understanding of their respective language communities and their toolchains.
  • Creating parsers, compilers, or code intelligence systems.
  • Golang, especially large code bases.
  • Microservices and message queues.
  • PostgreSQL and relational databases.
  • Agile processes, including breaking large projects up into smaller stories, estimation, working in branches (GitHub Flow), code review, and CI.
