Senior software engineer

Engineers with strong back-end experience and the desire to build a development team from the ground up are welcome to apply.

Responsibilities:

• Relational database systems—especially MySQL—are your first love, and you have a strong interest in (preference for?) database design, optimization, automation, and maintenance
• You’re a Python guru, and you’ve had experience with django or another Python web framework
• ‘git’ and ‘tdd’ not only mean something to you, they’re part of your daily life
• You’ve worked with EC2, S3 and the rest of the AWS offering (bonus points for other platforms)
• You’ve spent the last 5+ years architecting, building and scaling software projects, preferably at a startup
• You’ve coached younger talent and are comfortable with team-building

This is your chance to play a critical role in launching and expanding a software business. At Procured you’d be responsible for developing and maintaining the databases that drive our platform. This includes data design and onboarding, scaling the application to accommodate a growing user base, and working in continuous collaboration with front-end developers to improve the product. You'd have massive responsibility for technical decisions regarding the back-end stack (there's no "adult supervision"), so motivation, self-reliance, and critical thinking skills are utterly essential.
