## About MixRank

MixRank (YC S11) processes petabytes of data every month from web crawling, Google Play Store, Apple App Store, social media, and dozens of other sources. We have hundreds of customers using our data products including Google, Amazon, Facebook, Intel, and Adobe, across industries Sales, Marketing, Finance, Recruiting, and Security.

We’re a fully-remote company with 47+ full-time team members in over 20 countries. We're growing, profitable, employee-owned, with no dependence on outside funding. Applicants from all geographies and backgrounds are welcome.

We are looking for passionate individuals for whom programming is not just a job but it’s something they love to do. We're obsessed with computers, programming, big data, databases, compilers, hardware, math, data science, and the internet.

Our code base is very friendly to new contributors. You'll have a fully-functional development environment within hours (fully automated) and be pushing commits on your first day. Deployments to production happen multiple times per day and finish in less than 2 minutes. Effectively all of our codebase is written in Python, Rust, SQL, Javascript/TypeScript, and Nix. The core technologies you'll need familiarity with to be productive are Python, PostgreSQL, Linux, and Git.

We operate at a larger scale than typical startups. We operate two datacenters with high performance servers we've built. We've implemented our own distributed file system, do full-scale web crawls, and perform static analysis on the entire universe of Android APKs and iOS IPAs. Unlike a typical startup where you'll spend half of your time in meetings and fixing bugs— at MixRank you'll get to challenge yourself with difficult technical problems that will help you to grow as an individual.

## About the Role: Software Engineer

We're hiring generalist software engineers with 1+ years of experience to work on web applications, data mining, machine learning/data science, data transformation/ETL, data modeling, database scaling, infrastructure, devops, and more. We'll cater the role to whatever subset of these areas match your interests.

## Who We’re Looking For

Passionate individuals for whom programming is a love, not just a job. We care more about the candidate as a person than specific technology experience, but familiarity with our core technologies (Python, PostgreSQL, Linux, Git) is needed to be productive.

Beneficial experience includes PostgreSQL, Python, Rust, Linux, TypeScript, Nix, frontend/backend web development, and data mining. We look for unique individuals and figure out the best way to accommodate their specific talents, rather than seeking a perfect fit for a predefined checklist.

Our philosophy on hiring is that the candidate is more important than the position. For each new member of the team, we design a custom role and responsibilities that are specialized to their interests.

Please include your updated resume when applying.
