?? Our Culture
Quantum Metric’s number one objective is happy people, diverse and inclusive culture. We’re passionate about empowering our people to become the best version of themselves, offering coaching and training programs designed to accelerate their career in whatever direction they choose.
As a remote-first company, we understand the importance of building an engaged, diverse, and fun place to work. We hold regular company-wide events, seasonal challenges, and Quantum Metric sponsored local outings when Zoom becomes too much. We also have a number of Employee Resource Groups that provide spaces to discuss, share, and reflect on topics that impact us both inside and outside of work – from being new to SaaS or navigating it as a first-time parent, to overcoming the barriers faced as Black, Hispanic, Asian American and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander, LGBTQIA or other underrepresented backgrounds.
We are also passionate about the connections we build with our customers. You’ll not only work with some of the world’s most recognized brands, but build lasting relationships.
At Quantum Metric we value all types of experience and education and don’t expect you to meet every qualification for this position. We are most interested in the unique perspective you can bring and your ability to uphold our values of passion, persistence, and integrity.
?? About The Role
As a Senior Engineer on the Platform Services team, you will focus on the most critical system in our stack – our ingestion system. You’ll balance enabling our product requirements with working on advancing our platform to collect even more data at an even higher scale. You’ll regularly work alongside our Chief Architect to make sure we’re ready for future growth.
We’re not shy about our rapid pace. We’ve experienced incredible victories because we come up with bold solutions and have them built before our competitors have poured their morning coffee. You understand that the common way to solve a problem is occasionally not the best way, and you want to innovate. You’ll need to learn quickly, fail fast, communicate often, pivot gracefully, grow from your mistakes and iterate.
?? Resposnibilities
- You’ll focus on the ingestion system, adding new features, fixing bugs, and improving performance and scalability.
- When you’re not working on ingest, you’ll help the team build the platform that powers the Quantum experience.
?? Requirements
- 5+ years of professional C++ experience
- Experience with high throughput ingest/data systems
- Database knowledge; BigQuery preferred
- Cloud computing experience
- Minimum 2 years SQL experience
Nice to Have:
- Experience with Golang
- Experience with message queues (e.g. kafka, puslar)
- Familiarity with GCP and it’s products
