We are building new team of 4 people to drive development and maintenance of few Comscore critical systems. Those systems are core part of infrastructure and require on-call rotations to make sure systems are running and delivering value.
We look for both, developers and infrastructure people (devops?). If you can debug stuff on Linux and are not afraid or random pieces of code, let's run.
We offer:
- Real big data projects 🚀
- An international team (US, PL, IE, CL) 🌎
- A small, independent team working environment 🧑💻
- Flexible work time ⏰ (but with on-call service)
- High influence on working environment
- Hands on environment
- Fully remote or in-office work in Wroclaw, Poland 🏢
- 18,000 - 25,000 PLN net/month B2B (that includes regular fulltime development work + OnCall rotations which we estimate on ~10h a week per person on shift or ~30h monthly total for all 4 shifts) 💰
- Private healthcare 🏥
- Multikafeteria 🍽️
- Free parking 🚗
As a Linux On-call Engineer, you'll:
- Make sure Big Data File Ingestion pipelines are running
- Figure out dependencies of software, untangling when needed, cut when needed
- Developing new and refactoring existing services
- Work with technologies like: python, java, perl, c++, c generated by python and compiled on the fly, 400 node postgresql cluster, mssql clusters, spark, apache airflow and other random tools (no MongoDB thought!)
- Work on OnPrem 400 nodes cluster processing data
- Potentially AWS Services
- Work in a small and effective team of high-performers of 4 people and collaborating with 3-4 other teams around that ecosystem
- Working in PST TimeZone
- Idea is that you don't have to be in PST all the time, regular development probably can be done any time, some synchronization meetings happen in PST.
- but for sake of the deal, let's assume you should be able to show up 3 times a week in PST timezone (although in practice this won't be the case)
- potentially manager of that team is in PL as well - that's to be established
- Idea is that you don't have to be in PST all the time, regular development probably can be done any time, some synchronization meetings happen in PST.
- You’ll take part in 24/7 365 on-call rotation
- regular work (development) is happening over ~230 days a year (polish holidays are in force and also 20 additional days without providing service)
- additionally there is 24/7 365 On-Call rotation - current pattern is that over week there is some maintenance needed and usually there is 1 day over 2 weekends a month that require more attention - around 5-8h) - if you can automate operations, fix it, delete it? to make sure weekends and On-Calls are not needed - THAT'S EVEN BETTER, WE NEED YOU
The candidate must have:
- 2+ years of strong Linux experience
- Strong debugging skills and crap discovery, quickfixing
- Sharp axe

Products
We strongly believe that working on a specific product for longer period of time has a lot of benefits. Person working in such environment where deep understanding of a product, technology in a stable environment can render great ideas, improvements and benefit everybody. No switching projects every three months, no new manager every three months, no new customer every three months. -
Craftsmanship
Everyday we learn something. It's great when you can not only learn but use that knowledge to build great stuff and grow yourself. We are big fans of excellence and technical craftsmanship. No excuses to avoid CI, tests, QA, best practices. It's true that shipping is the most important thing, but in the end, it's your name on it, let's make it right way. -
Stable and Flexible Environment to Grow
As practice shows, small teams are best to achieve best results and we are big fans of that approach. It's easier to agree on holidays, specific time to work, plan your time to take children from school. It's easier to agree on technical solutions and easier to communicate. With all that and bunch of extra smaller things like private healthcare, trainings, flexible working hours, fully remote or office options, employment of B2B type of work, lawyer/accountant help we are creating stable and safe environment for you to grow not only on a technical level, but also as a person. -
Technical Autonomy
We trust you. All teams have the autonomy to pick best solutions, best software, best approach for problem solving. No crazy managers to tell you that mongodb is a must or everybody must work in vim. We want you to support you on the road to technical excellence and avoid artificial blockers. All structures are as flat as possible and all decision making is as close to the core as possible. I hope you enjoy this a lot.
Workplace & culture
We really love to make working software products. We are small teams that are focused on specific products. Each of us contributes to project we like the most and with trust, independence and autonomy, hands-on approach and great software craftsmanship we shape the future.
