The most successful companies understand that data and analysis are the foundation of any effective business strategy. Modern enterprises live and breathe data that they leverage through all sorts of dedicated analytics platforms: customer, product, supply chain, finance, etc. But until now, there’s never been an effective software solution to understand, measure, and optimize companies’ most important asset: their brand. Upwave is a venture-funded startup building the Brand Intelligence Platform. We offer a comprehensive set of tools that help our Fortune 100 clients understand and improve how they’re perceived in the marketplace, how aware consumers are of the value they provide, and how much consumers trust them to provide the value they promise.Upwave has already built the industry’s leading toolkit for gathering, analyzing, and exploring data on consumer brand perception. Our tools are used daily by managers and marketers at many of the world’s best-known brands (like Amazon and American Express) and Upwave is now ready to step on the gas and scale up until we become the de facto industry standard. That means constantly working to deeply understand our users' needs and to reliably scale our existing platform while still building new analytical tools to help marketers ask and answer their most urgent strategic questions.Our
Product Engineering
team is small but moves fast by emphasizing sustainable high-quality software development, high developer autonomy, the “DevOps” philosophy, strong and empathetic communication, and great collaboration.We need a highly senior engineer like you with broad and deep experience to provide strong technical leadership across multiple areas of our technical systems, spanning from our React-based dashboard to our Spring/Microservice-based API to our Kubernetes/Terraform-based AWS infrastructure. Some of the world’s largest companies already use Upwave’s tools to guide hundreds of millions of dollars of marketing budget. In this role, you’ll be able to have an immediate, pivotal, visible impact on our tools and systems while working across a wide variety of cutting-edge technologies, all in the company of a friendly, supportive team.About you:
•
You have experience with end-to-end development of powerful, intuitive, highly-functional products for professional end users.
You’ve built robust, high-quality API-consuming applications before (whether single-page web apps, mobile apps, or cloud-powered desktop apps). You don't need to be familiar with the particular technology we use, but you should have built real RDBMS-backed backends in one (or more) framework like Spring Boot, Django, Rails, or Express and should have built SPA frontends in a modern JavaScript framework like React, Vue, or Angular.•
You deeply understand and enjoy programming.
You’re familiar with the modern landscape of user interface frameworks, web/API/microservice frameworks, databases, and cloud platforms. You know which approaches to embrace and avoid, and when to reach for a new tool vs. relying on a proven one.•
You value and practice rigorous software engineering methodology.•
You believe developers should operate the systems they build.
You think about observability, cost, and reliability as a fundamental part of software design and you design systems that are easy to operate and maintain. You deeply understand the power and promise of cloud infrastructure, and you have enough experience building in the cloud to know where the pitfalls are and how to avoid them.•
You like solving real-world business problems.
Our clients use our data to make their businesses more effective, and you’ll use your skills to turn theoretical ideas into concrete tools and improvements that will help Upwave satisfy our clients. You should enjoy collaborating with Product on specs and designs that solve real needs and will delight end users.•
People tend to look to you as a leader
and respect your expertise, even in roles where you don't have formal authority. You have experience mentoring junior teammates, and you understand that healthy human systems are essential to developing and maintaining healthy technical systems.•
You’re humble and curious.
You care about understanding the world around you and want to learn more about why it works the way it does. You understand that you’ll be responsible for making sure we end up with great systems by making sure the best ideas win, even if those ideas aren’t yours.•
You’re a get-things-done type
who fixes problems instead of worrying about who’s responsible for fixing them.
You own and take responsibility for your actions and your work
and you want to stake out meaningful areas of expertise within the constant swirl and change of startup life.•
You believe that well-oiled, high-trust teams are more effective than the sum of their parts.
You know that participating effectively in a team takes deliberate effort and compassionate, effective, and non-violent communication. Upwave works hard to foster a welcoming, inclusive climate where people feel safe and supported and actually want to work with each other. You’re comfortable being evaluated for what you add to the team, not just what you add to the codebase.Bonus points:
• Experience working with a JVM-based language (particularly Java or Groovy) and a Spring-based web framework (particularly Spring Boot or Groovy-on-Grails).• Strong familiarity and comfort with data management both through RDMBS (particularly MySQL) and NoSQL stores (particularly DynamoDB and Presto).• Experience working with React/Redux.• Experience working on cloud-native applications (particularly on AWS), particularly using Kubernetes and Terraform.• Experience at a startup or fast-growing company.• Experience with marketing technology, advertising technology, or market research companies.About Upwave
